NBA is back!

And I like how they aren’t trying to pacify certain elements of America. They went all in with the “Black Lives Matter” on the court and know who their fans are. The league may not be as popular as the NFL, but they realize that they can still be a billion league even without the bigger numbers.

In the court. Looks like a pick up game at the Y.

At least it is live people watching the game and not random old audience footage like they do in baseball sometimes.

Traveling is illegal, but never called, offense is hardly ever called for charging in the lane, yet let a defensive player brush someone with the ball in the arm, and a foul is called.
