Anyone else feel /r/nba has nose-dived in content and user quality in the past year or so? (self.nba)

It's hard to put my finger on the exact problems but it feels worse than the typical decline of large subs.

This thread posted today in response to the protest shows a lot of what I mean: https://old.reddit.com/r/nba/comments/14cbtjv/who_here_is_in_favor_of_just_replacing_these_shit/

Mob mentality, selfishness, scapegoating, lack of critical thinking... It's just so toxic compared to where it was even a year ago.

I'm excited at the prospect of building a more positive, welcoming place here to discuss the NBA.

I mean it all feeds off the drama. The NBA is the most drama league in all the North American major leagues. So it appeals to story's and narratives more than play at times. My friend doesn't watch any games all year and starts telling me how the Lakers will easily win this year. Because of one ESPN vid he watched.
