Can't watch NBA games anymore...

Please help me....or maybe I am just old school. SPOILER WARNING...if you read on, this may also drive you crazy watching a game. I have had trouble for quite a while now to watch the way NBA games are played. No, it's not the lack of calls for traveling...I've come to accept that there is no such thing as traveling in the NBA. It is the utter lack of offensive rebounding, throughout the league. Next game, doesn't matter which teams, watch what happens when a shot goes up...you will see the offensive team either just standing around, or most often immediately starting to head the other way. It's almost as if there is an implicit agreement between teams that, "if you don't hustle for for rebounds, we won't either". For my home team, the Celtics, the only player who you could single out who hustles for offensive rebounds is their point guard Rajon Rondo...what's wrong with that picture? And please, don't tell me they have to conserve energy...most of them are of course overpaid crybabies. And when someone does happen to crash the boards and get an offensive rebound, wow, the announcers love it, "that was real hustle"...s/b routine stuff, but not in this NBA.
