Dead portal. This portal has very low activity and no one is maintaining it. JJ98 ( Talk / Contributions) 00:52, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
Delete - Yeah, that looks pretty dead. No point in keeping it. ~~ Hi878 (Come shout at me!) 03:22, 31 August 2011 (UTC)- Keep - After reading the comments below, I have realized that I was wrong in my comment; the portal should be kept, it is still useful. ~~ Hi878 (Come shout at me!) 17:27, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
- Speedy Keep. Portals do not need to be active. In fact, most portal content is not changed after its creation, so that argument is completely off-base. The portal is quite complete and features a lot of useful information (links to a lot of featured content, as well as good content). Unless there is a section of the portal which requires maintenance, there's no need for it to have high activity. One thing which might be improved is to make the selected article and biography randomly generated to offer more variety for them, but not having that is not grounds for deletion. ···

- Keep Per User:Nihonjoe, that the portal has plenty of useful contents. Instead of nominating this portal to MfD, it would be better to notify the Wikiproject or the portal creator to keep the portal updated. I'm sure there is plenty of user there who could maintain this on regular basis. — MT ( talk) 05:55, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
- May I add that plenty of Featured Portals are also not regularly updated. — MT ( talk) 06:42, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
- Keep I am the portal creator and I feel a little guilty for not maintaining this regularly. Unfortunately I am no longer active enough to keep it up to date. If kept, I will try to fix it up when I got some free time. As for making selected articles randomly generated, I don't know how to set that up. So if someone can offer guidance, that would be great.—

- Keep per Nihonjoe and WP:COMMONSENSE. Its the frickin' NBA portal; a topic of major interest from around the world. oknazevad ( talk) 13:58, 2 September 2011 (UTC)
- Keep are you kidding? What do you mean "active portal", maintenance is never required, but optional like articles. ~~
