You can make the same argument against the NFL. 

You won't see me argue agaist that, although its not because of the player safety rules its due to the constant hampering of defense. Flopping still isn't as prevalent in the NFL.

Basketball was glorious in the 80's and 90's. This era feels like the WWE..

Really so you liked no offense basketball in the 90's with hand checking and teams able to stop the flow of the game by clogging up the middle of the paint??

Miami and New York having literally slug fest and barley getting 80+ points??

Yeah that was the golden age of basketball..lol

srsly tho flopping has always been a thing in the NBA, Frank Ramsey wrote about his flopping techniques in sports illustrated in the 1950s ffs. saying its a 21st century thing is just lol

the league has been cutting down on it for years now. nba is in a pretty good state right now.

Yes. The game was much better then. Most tend to agree and it's getting some traction recently. The NBA has a problem and it seems that they are finally considering that something needs to be done. Hand checking seems to be one of the things being considered to stop the nothing but 3s and no defense trend

Lol. Still the only Profesional team to win a title, and I'd never seen an NHL game in my life prior to 2005.

The Canes will have multiple before anyone else gets one, I mean it's not like they have the best record in the NHL right now or anything.

Unless you plan on dying before the summer, I might hold off on that prediction.

Glad you clarified that he probably wouldn't have caught the sarcasm.

I assume you lose a lot of bets given your history of takes.
