3 because I live in Houston and the Rockets seem to be a hot topic currently, whether positive or negative.

I'm a 2 on the Pels, mildly interested in the current situation.

1 tops on everything else, mostly because I like the MSB banter on it.

I was a huge NBA fan in my teens up to my early 20s. This was during the Bulls' run. I watched every game I could, collected cards and hung 2 Charles Barkley posters in my room.

In the summer, me, my brother, our cousins and our neighbors would play basketball in our driveway litterally all day most days. We loved basketball.

My enthusiasm started to decline after Game 6 of the 2002 Western Conference Finals. Each year I've given less of a shite than the year before.

I don't watch regular season games and usually watch 1 or 2 playoff games from beggining to end. I haven't watched an NBA Finals game in 3 years.

I just don't relate to the players now that I'm 40 like I did when I was young I guess. I can't put my finger on it.

So, to answer your question, I'd say a 1.

Sorry for the long winded answer.

If I see any former Louisville players in an NBA game I'll watch. Other than that, zero

If LSU kids start making some noise again, I'll start caring a little bit. Otherwise, nada.

Letting the players run the sport has killed it

2-3.

I may watch some of the finals in most years but it isn't something I go put of my way to watch. It's entertainment.

I feel like it's more of a young person's sport, and an urban sport. And, no I'm not using "urban" in a coded sense, I mean people who actually live in cities versus people in live in rural areas.

ETA: I guess I ignored the original question. It's my favorite of the major sports, probably a 9.

I watched as a kid and early teenager a lot. 95-02 Paid little attention in high school and college.

When Golden State made their first final against the Cavs I was interested for some reason, I think the main reason was I remembered being entertained by Steph in college. I've watched the majority of final games and more NBA basketball from 2015-now then I did the previous decade.

So I'd probably say a 5.

Zero. I'm not into sports entertainment.

For me its probably a 1. Back in the days when it was Bird, Jordan, Magic, Shaq I would say a 9 but for the past 10-15 years my interest in the NBA has changed quite a bit. I watched maybe a half of the NBA Finals. I would much rather watch the NHL playoffs and MLB baseball than NBA.

I don’t watch until the NBA finals and that is only about half.

I mean that was a pretty entertaining finals and playoffs we just had. The landscape of the league is about to change for the better this free agency what's wrong with it?
