Yep, this is a HUGE reason why I love the NBA (I like the NFL a bit more).
Example: JJ Watt is just adored in this league. People love him. And I agree, he is a great guy. But man, it seems like he is such a small percentage of the NFL, and so many seem to be trouble makers.
Meanwhile, in the NBA, there is a huge focus on family. When Hayward went down with a nasty injury last night, EVERYONE was praying and talking to him. The NBA "family" campaign they have going on is really working for them, and I like it.
Again, I do like the NFL more, just because I find it extremely exciting, and the blowouts aren't nearly as common.
