The NFL Sux

33. I disagree about basketball

The entire game matters. If it wasn't the case, then coaches would only show up w/ 2-minutes remaining.

Managing your lineup, countering offensive attacks, pace, every single possession matters and need to be taken care of limiting turnovers and bad shots. Last few minutes usually see the starters, reserves when they get 6-7 minutes are making the most and not thinking, "It doesn't really matter". If they did, teams would see large deficits routinely and w/ the standard deviation lower than other North American major leagues, the possessions matter so much more against the best teams. Conference championships featured the same teams last 2 seasons, 3 of 4 last 3.

I'd argue football is worthless but it is all unnecessary. Attract consumers & viewers to turn a massive profit, no major sports league is any different.
