I sure as hell don't. Really boring and KC never had a team when I was growing up so I didn't give a eff...same with hockey and basically baseball since the Royals are basically the juco to the MLB. Speaking of MLB, I'd rather watch that garbage than NBA

Thought I might start when I saw Beas on, but no, still don't really care. Check the boxscore to see how he's doing and that's about it.

The playoffs are good. Especially if you really, really hate the Lakers.

Love the NBA, just don't have time to watch. Will watch it a ton once CBB isn't on every night.

Watched the NBA back in the early to mid 90's when it was good. Since it is all dunk, dunk, 3-pointers with no defense I can't stand to watch it.

If Beasley is on, I might watch a little. Otherwise, I would rather watch paint dry.

I won't go out of my way to watch the playoffs, but they are certainly more exciting than your run of the mill game. So I usually watch a few games a year

They probably play better defense in the NBA than in college.

I like to watch the NBA and do.

Just can't do it. Not sure why, but it is just boring as shazbot! to me. Went to a Pistons game when they were good and was

. Maybe they need to raise the rims or something?

The NBA is great. Those guys are flat out athletes. lol at the "there's no D in the NBA" arguments.

40 Games in 40 Nights is my favorite time of year. I love it.

The Hawks coach was a couple steps on the court yelling at his team. So Kidd runs into him right as he was backing off. Refs were forced to call a T on the coach. Said coach was PISSED. It was awesome.

The quality of play in the NBA is so much better than college, its staggering. No real allegiance to any NBA team though.

This. Only time I watch. other than that it is more like this for me... "O hey the heat won vs. the nets, good deal"

The Thunder and Heat are fun to watch (except for Wade).

Don't get the Wade hate from KSU fans. He's probably the 2nd or 3rd most fun to watch payer in the NBA. He's fantastic.

I think maybe thats what turns me off. Its too perfect, and it seems like everyone plays the same style. In college you have teams that play in different ways, cuse with the zone, miz with the full court pressure.

The one thing that really drives me crazy is the music piped in during the game. Drives me insane for some reason.

This. And as a basketball fan with the Nuggets in town it's hard not get a little excited. I really wish Kansas City would get a team. Probably not gonna happen though.

I don't really watch NBA too much but I do like destroying idiots who talk crap on the NBA.
