Stupid Camera Angle

I actually really like that angle. It gives you a much better feeling for the athleticism and speed with which they play. Also it's much more realistic than an overhead shot -- you see what the players see. And if it's so bad, why are floor seats the most expensive?

And I don't understand the comment "you can't tell what's going on". If you were standing courtside could you tell what was going on? Do the coached sit 10 rows up so that they can tell what's going on better? Maybe if you never played basketball it would be confusing, but that's what it really looks like.

The coaches are actually on the floor and are constantly walking back and forth trying to get better angles. And I trust my eyes alot more than a slow ass camera with bad reaction time and is usually a second behind. Until they get the crap down, leave it like it is. The only advantage there is to courtside seats is you are sitting closer to the players and they are bigger I guess.

And also I am pretty sure if NBA coaches were allowed to wear headsets you would see alot more of them sitting higher to get a better view.
