Someone ‘splain the NBA to me

[WeAreUCONN]

Curious what you turned on because it definitely wasn't an NBA game

Was Philadelphia and the Raptors. Maxey was literally palming or carrying the ball on every dribble. When he drove the lane the Raptors literally got out of his way. NBA is trash basketball. They basically play playground ball now.

I had the same thought.

Anyone want to do me a solid and ask Matrim to unblock me. Not sure what I did but it hurts.

What’s with Drummond’s conditioning? Looks heavy, slow foot speed.

The no defense is a dead giveaway.

The defense is far more sophisticated than it's ever been.

We have some embarrassing "basketball fans" on this forum.

If the players weren't getting paid and were living off stipends it would suddenly become "great basketball" in their eyes. I don't know why these posters just don't be honest about why they don't like the NBA.

You always have to laugh at the anti NBA sentiments of some. The difference in the level of play is so incredible that it is hard to describe. The passion of rotting for your school is great, but if not for that, college basketball might be unwatchable. One thing that stands out to me is how often college teams, even the good ones, struggle to inbound the ball in a pressure situation. It's just really bad at times.
