The NBA is unwatchable for several reasons:

1) Star players getting all the calls
2) 4-5 steps before travelling is called
3) Isolation plays instead of team offense (24 second clock is part of the
problem here)
4) Little to no defense
5) Thug players and the whole "business" of professional sports...

I told someone this morning that I *tried* to watch Kenyon last night but
couldn't stomach the NBA and cited points 1-4 verbatim. Kenyon makes some
stellar defensive stands around the basket (blocked/altered shots), but too
many times he would just stick an arm out instead of playing solid D. It's
not a knock on Kenyon - he's merely adapted to the NBA style. As you said
CD, it's simply unwatchable.
