Personally no. Now that I don’t watch every Bulls game, I can’t imagine a scenario where I would see a raptor game from start to finish. I’m also going to need one of you to update me on scoot Henderson soon because I will absolutely see none of those games either. I’d rather not see the Hornets but they are on locally and I stumble over them now and then.
I’m not completely disinterested in whatever he becomes and I know I should probably care about Scottie Barnes if only because he was and inevitably end up on the team that is worth watching elsewhere. But right now? Meh.
My fanwidth isn’t what it used to be.

You knew the best players 'game" on every team in 2008ish. Has the NBA really lost you that much? What do they need to do to bring you back in like before or are you just getting old as dust now and if you were as old as you are now back in 2008 it would be just the same.

I used to Record preseason games and revisit them years later when I didn’t have anything to watch like a ****ing psycho.
The games just don’t entertain me the same way. It isn’t as simple as watching a bunch of threes being boring….but that’s a bit of it. It’s possible the players missing so many games is even more of it.
I can’t even get excited about a game when the players don’t give a **** themselves. There’s no pride and a big matchup. Somebody will have a big national TV game and instead of wanting to prove themselves if it doesn’t fit the prearranged schedule they were just stay home like it doesn’t matter.
And really all it is is the players finally going along with the ridiculous fans who say things like the regular season doesn’t matter for 20 years and now get upset when the players don’t care about the regular season either.
we have a good five months of players, barely caring, and the big matchups that might draw me to see how such and such compares to whoever else often don’t even end up happening.
I can’t imagine what would have to happen to make a Jordan or Kobe type not suit up in a game against a hated rival, but it wouldn’t be any bullshit. These guys don’t care. Hard to care myself.
It isn’t to say nobody cares, but the rate is definitely lower and you can see it in the product.

He’s my current favorite player, so I’m watching him and he’s playing so much better this season. Had like 12 assists the other night too. Now obviously I think his numbers are up cause of Barnes and Quickley being out, but he’s definitely taking over games.

Yeah theres something he can do :biggums:
He can SHOW US hes a ****ing competitor, a fighter, a bulldog, a winner, and DEMAND A TRADE TO LEBRON.
Otherwise I just cant take him seriously.

If he could develop a jumper off the dribble, he'd elevate his game to the next level.

No, but it is good to see him off to a good start. Curious to see how he does after Barnes comes back.

We are smarter than this in the day and age we are in now.
He is playing on one of the worst if not the worst teams in the league. His efficiency is a horrific 51 TS and his turnovers are pretty high.
This is nothing more than a player taking way more shots than he should be getting, spiking his overall ppg but nuking his efficiency.
