What market in the NBA doesn't have a chance?

Why are you directing this at me? I spoke about the NFL which is the topic of the thread. I didn't state a thing about the NBA.

All I know is my Bengals were the last ones to beat the Chiefs in the postseason and that’s something we hold onto… for some reason.

On the NFC side there's been like 10 QBs in the last 10 years. Up until now with Hurts going to his 2nd. Only the AFC side has had the dynasty dominance

-NE and KC have won the AFC 8 out of 9 years

If you had NBA runs like that there's zero chance you would say this

NBA recently had a dude win 9 conference finals in 9 years.. doesn’t seem like great parity if one dude can do that, regardless of them teams involved

yes I agree now, the NFL gave in to this new age bull crap thats going on. All they care about is ratings and revenue, it's so pathetic now and taking away from the charm. No way anybody can say the NFL and the refs don't favor the Chiefs, I mean Cheats, i mean they can't make it anymore clearer. Nobody wants to see Taylor Swift scare crow looking ahh but these girly little pop fans and the rainbow ppl smh. Somebody tell Josh Allen and others to go after the next pop star, whoever that it, watch how fast NFL runs to cater to them, I guarantee it !

didn't the refs already review it on their own and decide to give it to KC?

Idk about that but after watching fans reactions to the Chiefs success I can only imagine their tears and crashing out if the MJ Bulls were a current team instead of a nostalgic team winning 6 titles in 8 years lol

Yup. The "self-review" negated the ability to challenge. Even then, the refs obviously will choose what's favorable to the Chiefs.

NFL has one thing that never will happen in NBA.
Every single team could win chip and i mean every single.Just get ''lucky'' with drafting QB
There isnt like 4-5 teams where FA will go only

The cavs and the warriors have been in 4 finals in a row not too long ago.....

And KC have an historically good quarterback, similar in stature to LeBron imo, and quarterbacks are somewhat important in the NFL. LeBron teams won the eastern conference 8 years in a row, and won 3 of the subsequent finals series, and another of his teams won the title coming from the western conference 2 years later. GSW played in 6 of 8 finals/“super bowls”, winning 4 of them.

You could say the same for a lot of NBA titles. if horry misses that three, Kings win in 2001. Same with Jazz and a lot of NBA titles.

Naa the NFL is great in that regard. There is a ton of parity, so when a team has the best QB and best coach, it obviously gives them such a huge advantage over the field.

We obviously saw this with Tom and Bill, and now are seeing it with Pat and Andy.

Having the best QB in football just means so much. Manning and Allen are legit amazing players, two of the best QB's of all time, but they both just got unlucky of playing in the same conference of the GOATS. Brady and Mahomes are just that much better, and it shows in these games, and why they always win.

Likewise, coaching in the NFL is actually very important. A good coach/gameplan means everything, and in a one game winner takes all format, having creative coaches makes all the difference. As a Pats fan the SB against the Eagles when Fowles was the QB really stands out.

It’s definitely staged sometimes..

I moved countries, and where I live it's really difficult to watch the NFL without paying for whatever their equivalent of league pass would be. I don't miss it.

Parity aside, whenever I go back and try to watch it takes forever and it seems like there's an injury every other play.

First off, baseball is the worst and it's not remotely close. Secondly, the only reason KC, Phi and NE are so successful is that it's a QB driven league and they've got/had the best QBs. Mahomes was drafted 10th overall. If any of those 9 teams had good scouts then they'd be where KC is today.
