    1. More and more douchebags every year, less and less likable players, more and more tatoos, which is basically a sign of low class and trashy culture. I don't remember that many tatoos in Jordan's era. Too many players are out of reality and out of touch, indeed.

    2. More and more individualism to the extent of too much, less and less team work. The game is hard to watch a lot of times.

    3. Unhealthily mascular. Look at Lebron, Wade, Carmelo, they are all steroided no doubt. In Jordan and Barkley's era, most players looked fitter, leaner and yet strong. and I don't think the muscles of today's players would look that unnatural if they hadn't used growth factors. The same can be said to the players from MLB and NHL.

    What are yours?

    You have some warped views....therefore I'm going to laugh and make fun of you in hopes that you feel bad and lose self-confidence :grin:

    Hahahaha those reasons are bad and you should feel bad!:)

    I'd actually say the league is becoming more classier than it's been in the past thanks to Stern...

    As much as i agree with you, its sort of a contradiction. Stern knows where to target the media and how to create revenue. Its not always the players are trying to stick out, its just that media rules all now, so not much can be changed. Milk it while you can, guess quality is a thing forgotten.

    You have gradually lost interest in the NBA, yet you joined this message board of an NBA team just a month ago?

    Harsh, to an extent i've come to hate majority of what happening in the league, maybe part of it is because the Rox have been mediocre the last few years. But why does that have to stop anyone from still being a fan. I like the super teams to a small number, now its ridiculous.

    You know what really grinds my gears, The entire state of UTAH. Strip that state of their team and move them to a city that really needs a professional team like St. Louis.

    This has very little if anything to do with OP but I needed a little vent session :)

    So... Let me just make sure I got these 2 things correct. You're saying:
    1. People with tattoos are low-class and trashy?
    2. Melo, Wade, James are on steroids?

    agreed the younger generation of stars seem to not have that Allen Iverson thug attitude with them


    guys show up to pressers wearing backpacks, and nerdy glasses

    the OP needs to relax

    that thug culture is HISTORY, and i give David Stern big props for that, along with the 1 and done rule... which has HELPED a LOT
