    I realized that since the Blazers were eliminated, I have barely taken any interest in the playoffs. I realized that at this point, I really don't care who wins.

    Yeah, I have a slight preference for a Spurs/Pacers finals but not enough that I bother to watch games or follow closely the series.

    Apparently when the Blazers season ended, so did mine.

    Anyone else feel similar or am I just an oddity?

    Gramps...

    I don't really give a rats ass about the NBA after the Blazers season is done but I'm rooting for LeBron.

    I like reading all the threads and posts about how much LMA sucks but we should be able to trade for multiple high lottery picks and sacks of gold.

    The NBA is almost unwatchable. I love the Blazers though, and rarely miss any game

    I only watch Blazers games. I've never had any interest in watching other teams play each other. I have little interest in players who are not Blazers. I watched a bit of game 4 but whatever

    I'm a hoops junkie. I'll watch every game I can of the postseason.

    It's usually the same for me.

    I don't really give a rats ass about the NBA after the Blazers season is done but I'm rooting against LeBron.

    Except this year, I'm rooting against the Zombie Sonics more.

    I'm just watching bits of games here and there, rooting for the Spurs v. OKC and against The Lebrons.

    I literally will not be able to watch a single minute of the finals if it is OKC v. The Lebrons.

    It's OK. I have better things to do.

    I only watch teams that I care about, after that I really don't care. There was a point where I was so completely plugged in to every single sport because of my profession, but I got so burned out that I nearly stopped watching sports entirely. Honestly, I think the NBA is a joke, and if the Blazers ever left Portland I would stop watching completely.

    Is freelance writing for those sites really a profession, though? Seems like more of a side gig.

    Hoping the Spurs win it all (because they beat us) and hoping the Heat lose (because LeBron).
    But not really caring all that much or watching more than a couple of minutes here or there.
    Don't even have the draft to look forward to this year. Wake me up in October.

    I wasn't freelancing for ESPN. I was an employee with a contract. Hoopsworld was a side gig.
