I understand that the NBA isn't the average middle class cup of tea, but I don't understand why it's treated like the MLS around here.

Its amazing really how much hatred for the NBA is here.

1) Its the KU basketball effect. They think its the greatest thing ever, which it is not.
2) No local team in the state ie either KC and St. Louis.
3) Jordan effect. Fans of Jordan only, not the NBA.

1) To some of us, CBB is the best ever, winning is cool. Of course having three fairly consistently competitive teams in Kansas is pretty special. 1981, when all three were in the Sweet 16, was awesome. It just doesn't get much better.

2) I went to a couple KC Kings games, one in KC and one in Wichita as an exhibition. Wow, both places were almost empty, and I wasn't surprised when the team went to Sacramento.

3) Can't argue with that, all sports have it. Lebron kind of crapped on the fans this year after losing. He is rich, and the fans are poor. That probably didn't endear him with a lot of folks.

Kansas City is a college sports town, and before the Thunder, there wasn't an NBA team within an 8 hour drive.

I get that but what do you watch in April, May, and June? Next year will have a decent Royals team for the first time in forever, but in years past April-July would be a sports desert without the NBA.

Got to finally see the Mavs when a title. Going to just assume they would have repeated. But yeah it's not as important.

Something else no one around here watches: hockey.

I learned how to play in college, which gave me an appreciation for the sport, and I lived in Omaha for a year, so I attended a lot of college hockey games.

Watching the Thunder last year was the closest I've ever come to rooting for an NBA team... they're somewhat close to KC, they have a couple of former Jayhawks, and of course there's Kevin Durant. But, then watching the Heat flop around and cry reminded me why I've never gotten hooked on pro basketball.

Without the NBA around, I am going to start watching the NHL more. Since I get most of the Blues games and they are basically like every other team I root for it - should be an easy transition.

From current Blues fans I offer "welcome!"

They're taylor made for Chiefs/Royals/Mizzou fans. No championships. Apathetic (or non-existent) ownership. Lots of playoff disappointment.

I for one think the NHL would work in KC.

April thru July it is light out until like 9PM man. You don't watch basketball. You do shit outside then go to bed. Pro basketball blows.

OKC is about 350 miles away and Chicago is a little over 500... and I-35 to OK has a 75mph speed limit, while Illinois is like 45 (or, maybe it just feels like that).
