Default O/T what happened to the NBA? Bad Marketing?

Posted By: James Feagin

One of our local journalists stated that one could go into a locker room after an NBA game and not be able to tell whether a given team won or lost. I live near Washington DC and the NBA is the topic of sports radio for maybe 5-10 minutes....per year. The regular season is meaningless, the playoffs are like chinese water torture and the finals a welcome relief....because the two week break between the end of the season and the beginning of next year is about to begin. As for the white populace/black player assertion. I have never seen such rabid NBA fans as bleach-white Utah. Those I've met from my church who've moved from Utah to the East Coast are a bit surprised that they seem to be the only ones who care about the Association. "You mean you don't have NBA draft parties here?" That is a direct quote.
