Question for those of you who watch basketball, is it wrong that I don't care about it till after Christmas? I think they suffer from the same problem as baseball in that they have way to many games in a season making 1 game mean next to nothing.

I disagree, 82 games is the perfect amount of games to show a definative sample size between the teams. The storylines this year are good too with the West being stacked and can the Warriors attempt to break 70 wins again. The NBA for me has become my favorite sport to watch and follow.

I feel bad for Gordon but not for the Celtics.

Seems like complaints about the NBA season being too long (I don't hear about it regarding MLB) have been around for many decades. And now the NBA season is starting even earlier, apparently to prevent the "four games in five nights" situations with its accompanying fatigue, thereby making the season even longer. I wouldn't mind the season being shortened somewhat, but it's not that big of a deal to me. I suppose the more passionate one is about whatever dog he or she has in the NBA hunt, and as long as that team is relatively successful, the less long the season will seem.
