Ya know, basketball sucks now. The NBA of today pales in comparison to the NBA of Magic, Bird and Jordan. Now it's all isolation and 1 on 1, nobody runs the break like Magic's Lakers--nobody played harder and with more guts than Bird, and Jordan was incredible (and I never really cared for him).
I used to watch multiple games a week--now I sometimes watch the last few games of the Finals. It's pathetic really.
