    nba.com sucks. It takes too long to load for me and I never can find what I need there without searching for a long time.

    It's really lame if they aren't even displaying tonight's scores.

    Maybe the fault is with Spurs' press relations, not pushing the E-N or other articles to the nba.com attention.

    NBA.com is way too complicated HTML, esp for a site visited by dial-up users with weaker machines outside of USA.

    They almost never have Spurs.com on there but I think it might be more of a issue of us not putting a lot of new content on our site, mostly just game recaps. If we did more human interest pieces, insider looks and interviews, Spurs.com would be on there more often.

    NBA.com has tons of code commented out that users are still forced to download from their front page. That's just insanely stupid for a site visited that often that changes every couple of hours. Every user is going to redownload those worthless comments every time they visit the site. They could save tons of money on bandwidth costs by leaving commented areas in the source only on the developers' systems and off the public versions of the pages. What re s.

    I often use it as a benchmark when I'm on the internet through an unknown connection (i.e. Hotel). If it loads in less than 30 secs its a pretty decent connection .

    Thanks for the additive information, in my view it sucks the most because of the bias to marketing over substance that is unfortunetely the state of this sorry NBA today.
