I realize that in Seattle, the NBA is not a very highly appreciated commodity. There is no home team to root for any longer and therefore it's understandable to dismiss. But for fans of true sport, there's no denying the fact that the NBA continually produces the most exciting television and storylines of all sports. MLB and NFL games drag out too long and the players aren't as recognizable or celebrated. The NHL is a fringe sport, like soccer and UFC, therefore its fan base is passionate yet small. There's varying reasons for this that I'm not going to get in to now. My point is that the NBA is worth your time regardless of the way it deceived and stole our franchise. Because honestly if you hate the NBA for its Seattle dealings so much, then stop filling up Starbucks or Seattle’s Best coffee. So I have some thoughts on day one of the playoffs.
Note: Seattle’s Best is the coffee equivalent of Milwaukee’s Best beer.
