    Why does the media continue to bash small market teams when they are good because “people don’t want to see them”. I stand on that the suns bucks finals was great!!

    I wanna see the best teams play…. Guess the league is about catering to casuals. I would have hoped that more cared about the actual game, not aging stars.
