    1. Since the league has told refs to ignore 1/2 the rulebook, the game has become unwatchable. “Fans want scoring” has turned it into a glorified three point and dunk contest rolled into one. Adding in the constant barrage of commercials for the same crap over and over (and standing around if you are at the game) isn’t helping either.

  1. Inconsistent and excessive foul calling practically eliminates any rhythm. I want the Pacers to do well; however, constant stoppages often make it boring to watch.
