Wheeler, get your facts straight! 1) NBA Basketball games are 48 minutes long, not 60. Therefore, your comment about forgetting the first 55 minutes of a NBA game show a complete ignorance of the NBA. 2) The NBA season, at 82 games long, can be a long season. However, Baseball at 162 and other sports do last several months long and are comparable to the NBA. 3) The NBA contains some of the finest athletes in the WORLD and if you think it is boring to watch, then you are missing out. You just can't appreciate a sport that has action ALL the time, rather than many lulls in the action. Baseball and Football come to mind first. (I do like these sports, too, though) Next time you begin lambasting a sport which you obviously know nothing about, think before you submit.
