How dare you insinuate that you know what anyone likes or doesn't based on the things they state they hate!!!

That's fair, but not at all what happened.

What if I told you that I like basketball, but enjoy when the games are important more than when the result of the game is unimportant. To me, the competition aspect is a big reason why I like basketball. Would you tell me I don't enjoy basketball? That is exactly the dumb conversation that was had lol.

Of course, because if someone says they don't like a burger because there's pickles on it, it's because they hate burgers as a whole and not because they hate the pickles.
 
Since we're continuing with burgers and basketball, could someone give a cliff notes version for those of us who aren't going to bother looking it up?

The dilemma that others have mentioned between Lauri's success and our tanking/team building is something I dislike. For me personally it makes the league less compelling when Lauri having the season he's had, and as a result winning games, can be seen as a bad thing or that the best thing to do is trade him anyways. I enjoy the league more when it means something to win and it's not better to lose. When winning is seen as a negative symptom or byproduct, it makes me less interested in the league. Because this is what I enjoy about, HH decided that it must be because I dislike basketball. I swear I enjoy basketball, but he has decided for me.

That is a nice what if... but what you said was the NBA was ruined for you... cool. I know you said you can't stand watching college basketball... okay.

Now maybe you were just being overly whiny and dramatic but it would be fair to say - Maybe you don't like basketball? Which is what I suggested and clearly it struck a nerve.

I simply suggested that someone that says the NBA is ruined for them and they can't enjoy it might not be that into basketball. That means that I can read thoughts and am clearly incorrect.
