From
where I sit it looks like the NBA needs to work on it's scheduling...
The
Toronto Raptors and Brooklyn Nets are putting on a great show. At
least I think they are. I will freely admit I'm not a basketball
fan. I'm peripheral at best, but I do enjoy the playoffs. I want to
tune in. Really I do, but I have no idea when they're playing. The
Raps and Nets have played three games in a week. In fact the entire
NBA playoffs has been a mess. The first round started a week ago and
four teams still haven't played game 3. I know there are always
conflicts in scheduling. Today's arenas are booked almost every
night and it can be difficult to get all the games running on a good
time frame. However, the NHL has been at it for 10 days and every
series is on game 5. Yes, the NBA is playing to it's audience by
working the schedule so as many top teams get good weekend slots as
possible, but two games in a week? That's pathetic. It's trying too
hard to create artificial excitement by drawing the series out
instead of creating real excitement by allowing the teams to keep
playing. I'm looking forward to the rest of the Toronto-Brooklyn
series, I'm assuming it's going to end some time in May.
At
least that's how I see it and I sit in the cheap seats.
