I dont understand how anyone who cant dribble with their off hand, block out, play weak side defense,,, catch a pass in the triple threat position and so forth make it to the nba...i know its a league of freaks..but these guys really are killing the game..ralph miller is spinning in his grave...i know its exciting to watch but the game is basiclly street ball now a days... thats why its a pleasure for me to watch steve blake and brandon roy..they play true basket ball...fundamentally sound  when i watch a game my eye is not on the ball at all times..a lot of time i miss the thunder dunk because im watching to see if the offense is being ran..i look at joel setting picks and seeing if jarret is keeping his spacing  far enough so that his man cant double team....we are losing the sport in its true form..but its exciting i guess
im just saying..im a student of the game and a fan
and when i see shawn marion shoot a jumper i want to throw up..but it works
