Some good points made. However the present version of basketball in college and the pros is far less entertaining then it used to be 20-30 years ago. These outside in offenses can be brutal to watch. No post play with their backs to the basket, and guards sometimes going full possessions without one pass. The scoring is way down because skilled big men are extinct and underutilized. The golden era of basketball was the Lakers- Celtics of the 80's. The game has been going downhill ever since.
