I don't watch NBA basketball nearly as much as I used to because the game itself is a lot more boring and predictable to me. The league has too many specialists who can only do one thing. I hate that.

There's nothing new out there.

I'm just glad they didn't do this stuff when Magic and Bird were running the show!

But after seeing the Celtics teams of the late 60s, the great Knicks, Lakers and Celtics teams of the 70s, the Lakers and Celtics of the 80s, the Bulls of the 90s, the Lakers and Spurs during the past 10 years... I feel like I actually HAVE seen it all. Three superstars getting together on one team to try to win it all is nothing new (1969, Wilt/West/Baylor... who also didn't win).

We'll watch some games if they end up playing. If they don't, there are way too many other choices in terms of entertainment.
