While I'm at it partnering with shoe companies to sell overpriced, slave shop manufactured crap marketed as cures for an inability to jump high or run fast didn't help either. I could probably go on a bit but will not.

Yeah but the games are getting more exciting with the better players in the league. most teams have at least 1 player worth watching.
The NBA will soon be exciting especially when the younger guys get a bit more experience and certain players fill out (looking at you Durant... seriously add like 20 pounds and he will be ready to kill people on the court) |

I'm not buying any of that. I see no one on the horizon to revitalize this game. Lebron is all flash and dash with no substance......yet. If he is the Russell, Wilt, Magic, Bird, or Jordan of his era it does not bode well for the NBA.
