To be fair, most of the diving and flopping is not coming from the Swedes.  It's the Frenchies (Lapierre, Burrows, Luongo).

 This is why I never start basketball threads, despite my lifelong love of the game: Asher's continuing need to denigrate the sport in comparison to hockey. It's just not worth the annoyance. Dude, if you're not interested, just stay away, rather than trying to turn every basketball thread into a "which sport is better" stroke-fest.Apolyton's Grim Reaper 2008, 2010 & 2011

 NBA basketball is boring as ****. There's so much wrong with the NBA as a medium of entertainment.
 
 Too many teams... too many teams in retarded markets (Memphis, Oklahoma City, Sacramento... )... too many games... the problem is any given regular season game means just about nothing. )... too many games... the problem is any given regular season game means just about nothing.
 
 And that's not even mentioning the problem of basketball itself, in any modern context, being so much back and forth followed by a final minutes foul-fest.
 
  
 
 Basketball is the best sport to play; it's just so-so as a spectator sport and the setup of the NBA makes it even more boring."Flutie was better than Kelly, Elway, Esiason and Cunningham." - Ben Kenobi

 The LeBron James spectacle was far more entertaining than any average regular-season NBA game.Originally posted by -Jrabbit View PostAs another who doesn't watch the NBA and doesn't like the NBA, you are also invited to leave this thread.

 Ohio professional teams happen to be inferior. Like, since the 1964 Browns.Apolyton's Grim Reaper 2008, 2010 & 2011
