NBA is ‘repetitive and boring’, Who should the Bears hire as their next head coach? | THE HERD
The Milwaukee Bucks won the NBA Cup Finals, beating the Oklahoma City Thunder 97-81. However, the Thunder shot 5-32 from 3, and Colin Cowherd says this is a poor reflection on today’s game. He discusses what needs to be changed in the NBA to help viewership, and who the Chicago Bears should hire as their next head coach.

Every team thinks they have a Steven Curry, and every guy thinks they're him.
Analytics was exciting innovation in baseball when it allowed the A’s to beat teams with more money and talent, but when everyone started applying it, it nearly killed the game because it became so boring… they had to change to rules to make it watchable again. The NBA will have to do the same.
Social media is the most negative outlet for NBA commentary. Three-pointers are like an addiction. How can they stop it now?
NBA ratings are down because there are no big American stars people want to see right now. LeBron and Steph have aged out. Warriors were shooting a ton of 3s and ratings were great.
Yannis is just now barely learning the game….
NO cheerleaders and a commissioner that looks like death warmed over.
There's only so many ways to play basketball, or any sport. That guy kept spouting that nonsense proves that he's just one of those idiots that bashes the NBA just to bash it, with no actual criticism.
Another thing, and his cute biased example he bashes today's players for shooting three something they have the skill to do while ignoring the players back in the 90s weren't nearly as skilled as today's players are.
Jordan strength was driving and his mid-range he was not a three-point shooter. But let's keep ignoring logic and then instead rely on fanboy/nostalgic responses.
Worst part is, these 1 (year in college) and done players haven't even honed their fundamentals yet. They couldn't hit a 3 point shots tto save their life.
Yet, teams are giving them the green light to fire away. Brutal!
Great points
Ive religiously watched the nba my whole life. Now i can't even watch a full game. I dont care. Its not entertaining anymore. At all
Why not adopt more the FIBA rules? Force a more tactical game
did he just say BRUH 😂
Repetitive, Boring and folks dont watch to hear Barkley, Lebrons and others divisive politics.
They just need to fix these ridiculous technical calls as well let them go off a bit
The shift is like making a player go to his weak hand in basketball. GET BETTER. WORK ON YOUR GAME. BRING BACK THE SHIFT.
Adam focused on social media tells me everything i need to know. NBA Died with Kobe.
Sports is best when its unpredictable
Soccer is king. Know American watch more. It’s the best sport in the world
NBA to woke for me, didn’t even watch the finals last year. First time in a while.
The game is flawed. I stopped watching basketball at all levels about 15 years ago. The rim is too low. Dunks are just a show of violence, simply. A close game with 90 seconds on the clock can take 20 minutes to complete. Foul shooting should be; you foul a guy purposely – you should get the shots and retain possession. That will get it moving.
When we’re talking about progress there’s a difference between advancement and betterment.
I miss the 90’s NBA so bad !🤦🏽♂️🥹😤
70 attempts per game by teams means 70 times where a Dunk/Driving play was not attempted. Ugh.
I disagree, the Cavs are fun to watch and shoot a ton of 3s, the ball movement and everybody playing thier roles is entertaining
STOP MENTIONING ANALYTICS!! THATS what has these teams shooting 3s! Yall nerds made 3pt shooting "smart".
Give each team 3 – 3s a quarter
Turn every NBA game into an allstar show. For example, if the game lasts for 2hrs.
First 30 mins: skills challenge
Next 30 mins: 3pt contest
Next 30 mins: Dunk contest
Next 30 mins: Scrimmage
From each event the score is totaled, and the team with the most points wins.
I would make the 3 point a 2 pointer
That’s how you fix that !
nba has to not have half the league make the playoffs, maybe teams would try harder. plus the nba playoffs drag on so long.
Now u see why I only watch the second or 3rd rd of the playoffs.. booooooooooorrrrrrrrrrrinnnnnnnnnngggggggggggg
Field goal kicking is next. NFL kickers are too good now and teams win without even advancing the ball past the 35yd line
It’s really simple, just get back to being a more physical sport and get back to playing real defense with hand checking.
Colin coward you are a clown 🤡 don’t be hypocrite you are one of the biggest supporters of this mediocre era water down since 2011 🤡👎💩
90s is when the NBA peaked.. then they removed hand checking
Even Dairy Queen is jealous of how soft the nba 🍦
It’s not just the game is these entitled athletes and the fake king. Everyone except the one that know have been fooled into thinking that mediocrity is greatness. It’s not must see tv anymore. It has been since the real 23 retired.
Ive got zero desire to support a sport that openly and loudly dont like want me to be part of the experience because I dont worship Biden/Kamaltoe. Im elated to see them failing. They deserve every bit of it.
3pt line turned Ant from one of the most exciting young players ever to just another athlete trying to shoot too many 3’s
Come back to me with that NFL take in a few years. I know a ton of people in their 30s turning it off. It sure does look good next to the worst sports league in the world.
I grew up on the Showtime Lakers, today we have LeFlop🤦🏽♂️
Colin's production staff really nailed these takes. Complete agreement.
New rule beginning next season: each team is only allowed 25 3 pt attempts per game. After that all shots will only be 2 pts.
It’s also the lack of defense
Hated on Russ all these years cause he couldn’t “shoot 3s” now players have developed a decent 3 and now it’s they shoot too much
