I don't know how the Curry camp can find happines in this...

[apalisoc_9]

Two straight 65+ seasons without Durant and back to back finals with a championship only for Durant's ass to piggyback the team and get credit for a team that was created and structured around Curry-Draymond and Klay.

I'd move if I was curry. So disrespectful. He's hurting his legacy because he's forced to sacrifice the most while this beta 7'0 get all sorts of credit for playing in a system made possible by Curry.

Durant isna System Player.

Tune out. Don't watch this garbage. Don't give it your ratings point.

Now I don't want rules against building superteams, but the NBA needs to figure out how to generate more natural parity. They really, really need to employ a farm system (an actual one, not the AAU joke that is the D-League). Hockey and baseball have the best parity in pro sports, and the reason is because both leagues have comprehensive farm systems and actually take time to develop players, so every year, a franchise has a probable star coming in. Tanking would also be rendered obsolete.

NBA is all about drafting on potential and throwing players at the proverbial wall to see what sticks.

Oh, I know. The NBA found their formula (social media, storyline driven), much like the NFL found theirs (fantasy sports driven). But both formulas came at the expense of the sport. Post play died in the NBA (big men have never really been that marketable), while the running game died in the NFL (a pass happy league is better for fantasy players).

NBA has always been the most casual of the big 4 sports. Even in the good old days. People really didn't start watching until a "compelling" storyline was involved (i.e. Magic vs. Bird, black vs. white, Hollywood vs. Blue collar). NBA was on its death bed before then.

The NBA's local TV ratings in the regular season are already declining. The ratings for national games and the playoffs will be next once even the casual fans get bored of non-competitive blowouts. On top of that, if the playoffs continue to suck this bad every year with so few games played, gate receipts will continue to decline, the salary cap will shrink and it will cost players money.

Just because the playoff ratings are good right now doesn't change the fact that the league is in trouble longterm if something isn't done to even the playing field.

[Capt Bringdown]

Disagree. Look at NBA history - it's not about parity and an even playing field. Look at all the titles the Lakers and Spurs have won the last 20 years.
The Bulls ruled the 90's.
Lakers and Celts ruled the 80's.
The 70's was arguably the most competitive, even-playing field decade, and guess what? The league was dead in terms of prestige and mass appeal, only to be rescued in the 80's by the dominance of Magic and Bird.
The 60 was owned by the Celtics.

The league's product to casual fans is not parity and fundamental, competitively played basketball.

It was never as bad in the past as a 73-win team adding the former MVP who choked and quit against them in the offseason. If the Warriors sweep, the year will end with only 78 playoff games having been played. That would be the shortest playoffs since the first round got extended from five games to seven. This is uncharted territory for the league.

This season's playoffs are performing worse overall, as well.

http://www.sportsmediawatch.com/2017/06/nba-playoffs-viewership-down-entering-finals/

A 4 year low.

And no way in Hell do these Finals beat last years now that the Cleveland Curse/Prodigal son storyline is over.

The NBA has always been short-sighted. They bank on big markets (Lakers) or mega-mega stars (Jordan, Lebron, Curry) to drive league interest. The Lakers can't feasibly make the Finals every year, and Lebron and Jordan have once-in-a-generation marketability. I don't even think Curry could carry the league.

Funny enough, we saw this happen in baseball, during its supposed "golden age." In the era of Yankees dominance, baseball really only thrived in that market.

http://cdn1.sbnation.com/assets/3973749/MLB_Attendance_1950-2013.png

It was still America's most popular sport at that time, but it was really struggling in the smaller markets. Everyone was pretty much a Yankees fan, just like everyone was a Bulls fan and are now Lebron/Curry fans. So what happens when those players retire? The NBA needs the Bucks of the world to grow those small markets.

[Capt Bringdown]

It will be interesting to see how this hurt's the NBA's number$. However, if/when they do intervene, it will likely NOT be to enable/develop parity.

I recall how they responded the 2007's lowest rated finals ever - to instantly resurrect (via absurd one-sided trades) the Lakers and Celtics. So much for parity.

I see defensive rule changes happening eventually much like the league started to implement zone defense once a lot of casual fans got sick of Shaq's dominance during the 3 peat Lakers run.

[The Gemini Method]

At one point, Curry was being labeled an oft-injured slight PG. So, I'm sure he's appreciative that he is on the Warriors. I mean, it seems that he doesn't have that ego where it puts him in that stratosphere of needing to be the man. I think the one who might be disgruntled at the moment is Thompson. Though, Klay is in a major swoon, he still killed it on the other side of the ball. I think he'll be the first of the 4 to leave Oakland. I wouldn't be surprised if that were the case.

The style of play is better than previous eras (though it could be even better; there needs to be more balance on offense instead of spamming threes), but it's ruined by how non-competitive the league is now.

At least post 60s, the league has never been like this, when you knew on July 4th that the Finals and champion were a lock, barring at least 1 significant injury. Bulls, Lakers, etc., were overwhelming favorites at various points, but weren't unbeatable and elite teams could give them competitive series'.

Ratings and general interest will inevitably decline once this becomes old hat and casual fan realizes that no one can even do that with this team.

Since it's more than likely not possible to build a team to beat them anytime soon (Paul to Spurs would be punchers chance, though it's more than likely not happening), the next step is rule change(s). Time to move 3-point line back a few feet and do away with corner 3's entirely.

Which is funny because the Spurs were as much contenders this season as almost any season in those 18 years other than the ones they made the Finals. Spurs fan thinks the NBA will shut down if the :cry beautiful game isn't front and center in a sweltering, broken down AC AT&T center in June. Some of the worst front running faggots in the nation.

By all accounts they could very well just have a Timberwolves level franchise, and if you allowed these guys to make the decisions that's what you'd have. Blow it up, every year we don't ring... blow it up. Trade everyone.

I said 'pretty much' which means most of those 18 years. IMO, the Spurs weren't really contenders in 08 and 09 when they lost early to Dallas and Phoenix respectively but every other year, they had a legitimate shot. You're telling me in 2010 they weren't contenders when they were the #1 seed? I think if 8 didn't happen, they would've given Dallas fits. I say that as a Mavs fan who shudders at the thought of having Jason Kidd try to stay with Tony Parker. 2011 they barely lost to OKC and would've atleast had a puncher's chance in the Finals against Miami since they played them close the next two years. So no, I'm not buying those two years as not being legit contenders.

stfu, you butthurt faggots. The Spurs have been contenders for pretty much the last 18 years and now all of a sudden, the one year they're not, you act like there's something morally wrong with the league. I didn't hear this bitching when you guys were beating up on the Suns who played the exact same way or when you beat the Heat who were also considered a super team. Speaking of the Warriors, the 2006-07 Warriors played some of the dumbest, rec league basketball of all time but there was a semen cloud over Spurstalk when they went on their run in the playoffs. Didn't hear any whining then either

If Chris Paul joins the Spurs, you queers will be right back on board jerking each other's 4 inch peckers

No, they haven't been; they've been elite, but 4 or 5 of those years, they had no chance to win the championship.

You're an idiot if you think those teams compare to this Warriors one. No one can even play a competitive series against this team and since it's not possible to come close to their talent level, the next best thing is changing the rules. The league has done it throughout their history whenever they felt something became too dominant or prevalent and the 3 has now become that the past 3 years.

They also shouldn't want most of the league thinking they have to play a certain way in order to keep up; variety is good. It's not just the Warriors, the Cavaliers, Rockets and Celtics, are the others, but they don't have the talent level of the former.

I said 'pretty much' which means most of those 18 years. IMO, the Spurs weren't really contenders in 08 and 09 when they lost early to Dallas and Phoenix respectively but every other year, they had a legitimate shot. You're telling me in 2010 they weren't contenders when they were the #1 seed? I think if 8 didn't happen, they would've given Dallas fits. I say that as a Mavs fan who shudders at the thought of having Jason Kidd try to stay with Tony Parker. 2011 they barely lost to OKC and would've atleast had a puncher's chance in the Finals against Miami since they played them close the next two years.
