Re: How do you decide which non-Raptor games to watch?
Anything that can work as good background noise while I work out or read my comic books. I look for monotone commentary.
Google "Hind Rajab"
Total Killed by Israel = 50,000+
Israel kills a child every 45 minutes and ban aid workers from bringing in baby formula :crazy:
Total being starved by Israel = 500,000 -1,000,000
Speak up

Re: How do you decide which non-Raptor games to watch?
I only watch non-Raptors games when the Raptors are a playoff team....when they're tanking I have no desire to watch other teams unless I see the score is tight late in the 4th, I might tune in to see a potential game winner.
This only applies for regular season, once the playoffs start I'll start watching every game if it's a good series.
For the Leafs and Blue Jays I don't even bother watching them in the regular season, will only tune in if they're in the playoffs. Don't have all that time to waste.

Run a business, that keeps me busy. I could make time if I really wanted to, but I'd rather work than watch the Celtics chuck up 50 threes.
I look at the East and West standings, none of the teams interest me until the playoffs start.

Re: How do you decide which non-Raptor games to watch?
I've been following Knicks since the OG trade, try to see all their games. Even streaming them this year. Otherwise, it's something I meant to post in the thread about what's wrong with the NBA, too many 3s, etc: I rarely sit through an entire game anymore. I don't find the product as watchable as a neutral observer. I started watching in the 70s when you could hardly get a game on TV in Ontario aside from a weekly Sunday afternoon game from the Super Bowl on. Younger me would have killed for the amount of games we get now just on TSN and RSN. Now I can't be bothered. A bit of that is just being older, but mostly it's the game itself, just doesn't seem like basketball as I knew it. Yet I still want to watch the team I care about.
There goes my hero. Watch him as he goes.

Tape delay, baby! Nothing like knowing the score, before watching the game.
