@LostProphetFLCL: " Maybe I need to care about the NBA now?"
"I am more and more thinking I need to watch some NBA now..."
Well lets break it down.
Assuming you only follow local teams,
What are the chances the 2015 Lions make the playoffs despite being 1-7?
The Red Wings have been average since they left the Western Conference.
Tigers return in late March
Pistons could be last year's Bucks.
I do only follow local teams.
I watch the Lions currently for the hilarity. It is incredible just how bad they are this year.
The Red Wings make it to the playoffs and I am really interested in watching Dylan Larkin's career as he is from the same small town as me.
I will at least have the off-season to follow for the Tigers. It is probably their most vital off-season they have had in like a decade. Will decide the fate of the teams near future.
Not sure what this statement means TBH. I never got into basketball. Have always felt it was a lesser sport compared to the other three major US sports. Did start getting a little interested last year with Lebron carrying the Cavs. Now my home team is looking good again so it might draw me into watching a bit. We shall see...

Basketball have been pretty popular for quite a long time. Pistons have a good Basketball history with the bad boys of Detroit in the 80's. Not forcing you to follow, but I recommend going to at least on live game and see what you think of it. It's always nice to try new experiences.

My parents actually took me when I was little! Met Adam West there! Sadly I was too little to have much memory of it, let alone know how awesome Adam West is.
The Palace is really close to where I live. Could head down there, but I do have a problem of having no friends who are in to sports...
They will be, otherwise will choke on the first round again, right @Aljosa23?
The Raptors expect to at least get past the 1st round of the playoffs. Where is this hate coming from? Why the hate? If they play like how they are right now in the playoffs they should be fine. The Raptors D put OKC's offense in a chokehold in the 4th quarter.
@GameboyTroy: I just like to mess with Toronto fans :P
Anyways, a great rebound win by the Bulls! OKC is still an elite team, but they utilize their bench very poorly and they have great talent too.... I see Charlotte as the most improved team this season, they were off to a slow start, but they are winning games and their fast pace offense looks very deadly, as they beaten my Bulls very badly.
@GameboyTroy: They are good, no doubt. I think they'll "struggle" at first as they get used to playing with each other and try to find the right lineups. They can definitely struggle on the offensive end at times. They have a good mix of young guys and vets. I really like Winslow and Tyler Johnson.
Caught most of that 4th quarter of the Pistons game and that just might have made me a fan! Holy shit that rally was something else. Utterly DOMINATED the Trail Blazers after having been down by double-digits for most of the game.
Seriously, there was a 41-11 point differential in that 4th quarter. The Pistons got some epic turnovers and just completely demoralized Portland. Was EPIC!
I wonder, do NY Knicks fans feel like Porzingis will be their new franchise player over Carmelo Anthony? Sure, they play different position, but Porzingis has better all around talent. No doubt he will be winning Rookie of the Year this year.
@PSP107: G. State lost tonight but I think they will tie or break the 72 wins record. (I did think Indiana, Boston or Milwaukee had good chances to beat them)
I say this every year, but Lakers are gonna take it all. >.>
I didn't think you'd say something like that. You're better than that. You're a mod. The Lakers will eventually bounce back.
Lakers would be lucky if they can lock in to get Simmons in the 2016 Lottery draft pick, they're already stating he will be the best player in the world if he is in the right system and franchise team.
Jimmy Butler has a game high of 53 points against the 76ers, have surpassed MJ's record with it!
Which record? MJ's highest game was 69 points.
It was at the Wells Fargo Center (Or their old arena) that MJ had a high scoring game against the 76ers. Jimmy has a long way to go before beating MJ's overall record.

Oh, okay. So Butler got the franchise record high score against the sixers? Still quite the game. Even if it was the sixers. Butler's blowing up.
I like how the Raptors won 13 of 14 games at the moment. They had 2 losses last month. I'm glad that both Lowry and Demar made the all-star team this year.
