From my (wasted money) experience, even the playoffs teams don’t try unless it’s the playoffs. When we travelled and the kids were young, we’d bribe them with NBA tix that night if they were good during the day. I remember having about $800 into tix in Charlotte one time. My younger son, an above average AAU PG, turned to me about 5 minutes in and said “they’re not even trying!” I’m glad that was clear to him, as it’s the last time a spent a dime on watching the NBA.

How close were you sitting? When I've been to non-playoff NBA games and had good seats, it's pretty amazing how fast the game is played. You can't play as fast as those guys without trying.

In Boston watching Lebron the seats were decent, but the food was awesome! In Charlotte, the most recent game, we spent big bucks for very good seats. It was early season, and I swear the AAU teams shamed them in terms of effort. I still don’t watch the NBA until the playoffs. I know they are really good and make it look easy, but it’s a long season and they coast too much for me.

That's true, but I think a lot of people just test the waters to see what they need to work on to improve themselves for next year, with no intention of actually keeping their name in the draft, I think Jon Elmore from Marshall did that last year, and Cal used to do that (don't know if he still does) by sending the entire roster. It is crazy that like 62 or what will get drafted and rest will either go to the G League or Europe (which 6 figures while living in Europe in your 20s isn't a bad gig)
