I don't think one player is going to make or break the ratings - especially at this point in the season, especially in this instance. This is the second round of the playoffs -- most teams (exception: 76ers and Pacers, who have several good players) have more than one great player worth tuning in for.robj55;1173664 wrote:People want to see stars perform, they want to see them do the amazing because they are capable of it. Only hard core fans of the game really care about seeing role players and watching the intricacies and nuances of the game.
I'm not saying Wade deserved to be suspended, but like Hb31187 said, by not suspending him because he's a star is going to turn a lot of people off. The league looks like more of a joke for not having any integrity.

Give it to westbrook, and go to the damn hoop. Nobody on the Lakers roster can check him

Did you want to watch the Bulls after D Rose went down? I know I sure as hell wasn't as interested.friendfromlowry;1173708 wrote:I don't think one player is going to make or break the ratings - especially at this point in the season, especially in this instance.

I was waiting for a break to rewind, it was definitely clean. He came to an awkward jump stop, so it looked funny.Hb31187;1173709 wrote:Yeah i dont have DVR so i couldnt really get a 2nd look at it

Yeah I dont get that at all. Hes a hell of a Ft shooter, can elevate, and finish with contact. On top of being one of the absolute fastest players in the NBa....yet he wants to shoot a midrange. Kd is settling for all jumpers too when he can get to the hoop. Playing right into the Lakers handwildcats20;1173717 wrote:No ****. Unfortunately, he loves his jumper.

I'd imagine 99% of Heat fans like yourself feel the same way...I mean obviously Heat fans enjoy watching superstars, that's why they became Heat fans.robj55;1173714 wrote:Did you want to watch the Bulls after D Rose went down? I know I sure as hell wasn't as interested.

If the Thunder had a REAL PG, I think Russ would flourish. He really is a 2, playing the 1.

I wasn't arguing any of what you guys said, we see eye to eye on all of it. Same effect though, if you're injured you don't play, if you're suspended you don't play, if you are in foul trouble you aren't on the court.chicago510;1173718 wrote:Rose didn't commit a flagrant foul.

I agree with that. Maynor with Westbrook at the 2 and Durant at the 3 would be the ideal line up for them. But obviously Maynor is otu for the yearwildcats20;1173723 wrote:Yeah, I don't mind lol

Yeah, I did. Because my interest in basketball doesn't revolve around watching only the superstars. I'm not 10 years old I guess. Hope that helps.robj55;1173714 wrote:Did you want to watch the Bulls after D Rose went down? I know I sure as hell wasn't as interested.

I'm not a Heat fan, I enjoy high level basketball either way. If you can't appreciate greatness I don't know what to tell you. I want to see the best out there competing and I'm sure most would agree. I don't hate on people like 99% of the world we live in, I enjoy seeing great talent, and don't try to constantly undermine it.SportsAndLady;1173721 wrote:I'd imagine 99% of Heat fans like yourself feel the same way...I mean obviously Heat fans enjoy watching superstars, that's why they became Heat fans.

YOU may have been, but a lot of people probably didn't care to watch them after he went down, just human nature.friendfromlowry;1173731 wrote:Yeah, I did. Because my interest in basketball doesn't revolve around watching only the superstars. I'm not 10 years old I guess. Hope that helps.

Kobe is blowing it, 2 turnovers and an airball...OKC Lead.
And abotu the whole Wade thing. Its not like people still wouldnt tune in to see LBJ play in the series if Wade got suspended (like he should of been).
