## What it is
nba-go is a Node.js command-line tool for NBA fans that shows game schedules, live play-by-play, box scores, and player information in the terminal. It fetches all data from the official stats.nba.com APIs and is installable via npm, Docker, or standalone binaries.

## Use cases
- check NBA game schedule from the terminal
- watch live NBA play-by-play in the console
- view NBA box scores and scoreboards via CLI
- look up NBA player stats and info on the command line
- compare team stats before a game starts
- track live game clock and scores without a browser

## When to choose
- you're an NBA fan who lives in the terminal
- you want lightweight CLI access to stats.nba.com data
- you need live play-by-play or box scores without opening a browser
- you want a tool runnable via npm, Docker, or standalone binaries

## When to avoid
- you need a graphical or web interface for sports scores
- you need sports other than the NBA
- you require actively maintained software with recent updates
- stats.nba.com API changes break the tool and you need guaranteed support
