I wondered how sites like this fare during this tumultuous summer to be an NBA fan.

Ouch.  By the lack of responses, you can probably see how quiet it is.  There's pretty much the CelticsBlog Draft, and a whole lot of nothing.

  • Yup
My approach to the lockout has been to pretty ignore any basketball related topics.  I just can't get myself invested in the hypothetical stuff.   

This leaves baseball and movies anyhow.
Yup

Thhaaaaatttt would require effort. I think we've fully established I'm mostly just a look-at-me alarmist straw men filled complainer.  I have a role and I do it well.

That and I make a lot of odd polls.   My head is working on a poll related to the best fictional school right now

Who's worried?  I think there's a decent chance we won't miss any games.
Philly:

Anderson Varejao    Tiago Splitter    Matt Bonner
David West    Kenyon Martin    Brad Miller
Andre Iguodala    Josh Childress    Marquis Daniels
Dwyane Wade    Leandro Barbosa
Kirk Hinrich    Toney Douglas   + the legendary Kevin McHale

I went through all the emotions...anger, disbelief...I worried, I fretted. 

Now I have decided to get on with MY life and let the owners and players worry about their own mess.  (They need me...and you...more than we need them.  And they SHOULD be worried that we all get on with our lives and forget them.)

Aside from that, the Blog is still my #1 destination each day.   :D
Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow is a mystery.
Today is a gift...
   That is why it is called the present.

doesnt really impact me at all. i hate the offseason in general. the only thing i miss is seeing where free agents sign.  but in reality, the offseason always stinks around here, imo. i dont like trade proposals bc they are all hypothetical.

i will feel it more in the fall, if the lockout is still going on.
