Recently, I have enjoyed watching the women’s game over the men’s.
As a child and a young man I assumed basketball was a team sport. More and more the men’s game is a team of individuals. Both leagues will continue this devolution of concept as time goes by.
The all star break was always a celebration of individual skills, 3 pointers and slam dunks. The more the actual game mirrors the break, the less enjoyable it is for this 60 year old man.
That said. I like to see the ladies get fired up and collect rebounds. I like to see the hard fouls and 3s from down town. Maybe I’m just a hypocrite/lunatic.
