Heres the real salient basketball question coming out of the olympics

We invented the sport (technically Naismith was a Canadian), we perfected it, and we dominate it; why are we letting them set the rules?
Letting someone touch the ball while it’s in the cylinder is Mickey Mouse BS, what’s up with the trapezoid lanes, and only college kids play for 40 minutes. Tell FIBA to pound sand; it’s our game our rules.

Dr. Naismith probably rolls over in his grave every time an NBA game tips off. The game would be hardly recognizable to him.

I'm sure it's more recognizable than football***

We should lace them up under any rules and continue to do what we've done. No

fear. 10 ft rim and 15 ft free throw line should be all anyone needs.

I agree. When you start complaining about the rules or the refs you’re well on your way to mediocrity. Just go play and let the chips fall where they may.

Agree with others - more concerned "walking", "double dribble" and defense no longer exist.
