Help me choose an NBA team
NBA is popular. I don't start watching until the conference finals because I don't have a team to follow. I want to choose a team. I don't want to be a front runner, so no Golden State or Lakers. Don't really want a west coast team because their games don't get over until midnight here. Doesnt feel right rooting for a northeastern team, so no Knicks, Nets, Celtics, 76ers.
I'd like to be able to go to a home game of the team without flying. I am in Southern Illinois. The cities I go to most (Nashville, St. Louis, KC) don't have teams. I've narrowed it down to a few teams, so what do you think |

Bucks or Nuggets would be good ideas. Hawks or Grizzlies would both be interesting as well. I follow the Wolves and wouldn't wish that on anyone else. Everybody in your area likes the Bulls, so I think that is out as well.

Choose the Pacers because you could never ever be accused of being a frontrunner.
But really, shouldn't you just watch a lot of basketball from many teams and then you like who you like? |

Forgot the Pacers. Also a good choice, although I still don't like TJ Leaf.

Bulls: they were my team growing up with Jordan. Management is trash with little signs of improvement
Pacers: 4-5 hour drive. Usually competitive. Not much national attention. NBA equivalent of pre-mahomes Chiefs Grizzlies: closest team to me geographically. I'm a murray state alum and they're going to get Morant. He will leave after 5 years though Bucks: good for now. Kind of far away and doubt Greek freak stays |

The CHEAPEST ticket for game 5 of the Finals in Toronto was over $2000.

People can’t name even 10 nba players. Some losers without lives can obv, but the typical American knows Lebron and maybe Durant. That’s why the ratings crashed without him. It’s a niche sport catering to minority milennials. Hey, my fave sport golf is also niche with an even more limited target audience. Doesn’t offend me. |

NBA has lower revenues that MLB and their avg reg season broadcast drew a pathetic 1.28m viewers. MLB avg broadcast (there are endless games as you know) on the same ESPN platform was 1.1m.
