Anyone who picks election coverage over opening night in the NBA is not a true NBA fan, based on the fact that you can catch all the coverage you want after the games are over.

So I guess Im not a true fan of the game because the most important election in recent history happens tonight? Or that my younger brother whose about to go to Iraq future may depend on this election? If thats the case the amount of knowledge that I carry regarding basketball means nothing right?

I find some of these comments ignorant and somewhat disturbing. Listen, we're obviously all NBA fans here, but some sport doesn't compare to what could possibly be the most important election of our lifetimes.

NBA = every year, lasts for 7-8 months

Presidential election = once every four years, lasts for a couple days or so

Surely you can put off a day of basketball without going into convulsions, no?

Regardless, even if you could care less about this election (something I find rather silly), realize that the vast majority of the people on this planet care a great deal about it. Not just this country, but the entire world. Cuban is absolutely right, and Stern can expect some pretty low ratings tonight.
