As a lifetime lover of Basketball, if its on TV, and I can watch, I will. But in recent years I have been severely disillusioned with pro basketball. Ridiculous travels left uncalled, clearing out the lane to let the best athlete put on a show, no defense!!! March Madness has been my solace! (Which is still the best time of year in sports!)
However, I have been tuning in to the NBA Playoffs quite a bit this year, and it seems, at least in my estimation, that there is a resurgence of good solid basketball. Watching the defense of Chicago, Miami, and Dallas along with Dirk Nowitski's perfect, fundamental shooting, has given me hope for the NBA.
I don't know how many readers will be interested in this, if any. But for a blog based in Indiana, surely someone will. So do you think there is hope for the post-MJ era in the NBA?
Finally. A post that matters. Forgot last nights game was even on. That's how much I love the NBA. My interest in watching the sport left me almost as fast as my skills did. Saying a few prayers for the NFL negotiations and checking the MLB box scores in the mean.
ReplyDeleteThe NBA is still a good game. I dont recommend watching anything more than than the last 5 min of each half. I used to watch every min. of every game I could. Now, the lack of team play and the 38 minutes no one really plays bore me
