We’re three weeks into the NBA season. How many games have you watched?
Yeah…….I haven’t really watched many either.
The NBA has kind of lost something for me this year. I can’t exactly put my finger on it. Is it because my team was garbage last season and that made me unmotivated to tune in this season? Yes, it may be. Or it could be the fact that the NBA lockout drug out for soooooooo long and it took away part of the season! Yup, that’s probably it.
I watched the NBA draft. I was so excited when we got the #1 pick! I mean, “What’s not to like?” 
I guess I’m excited for the future of the Cleveland Cavaliers. We’re rebuilding, right? I recognize most of the names on our roster but I’m not too sure about a few. But dang it I’m excited when I watch Kyrie and Tristan play! They are just something else!!
Are people in cities with championship teams pumped that the NBA season is going on?
All-Star Game
What about the NBA All-Star game, anyone excited for that? I feel like the season is shortened so much that the All-Star game seems kind of pointless.
I guess it seems kind of pointless every year to me. I really enjoy watching the dunk contest, but I want to see some good old-fashioned talented dunks! Take away the gimics and take me back to the roots! Nothing compares to a stellar dunk!
Take me back to the high-top fades, the short shorts and the REAL basketball players!
My PeRspective
The Cavs show a lot of promise for the next few seasons as long as they keep adding key players.Maybe if I get to a game this season I will be more excited about the season. I want to get to a game, I want to see Kyrie in person.
But what do you think about the rest of the NBA? Did the lockout just kill the season? I’m just not excited to channel surf and find a game like I normally am. I’d much rather find some college basketball on!
What do you think the NBA has to do to get fans excited again?
Downtown Cleveland
I’m with you somewhat. The lockout killed the NBA for me. I didn’t care about it at all. Then I watch Kyrie and just like that it sucked me back in. I’ve tried to watch all the Cavs games and while they are playing great it has been an easy schedule so we will see how good they are soon enough. Other then catching up on the Cavs and trying to watch some of the Clippers..yes the Clippers (Blakeshow) I still don’t care much for the NBA.
Yes it is hard to get excited about the NBA millionaires this year. Owners and players. It was fun to watch the old no props slam dunk contest.
