Basketballer. Quote from critic:

“The biggest flaw in basketball is that scoring is too easy, which makes a score mean less. Unless you have the memory of a goldfish you can’t celebrate a score, because 20 seconds later the opposition will invariably score. It only gets interesting in the last minute or so if the scores are close, as then a score starts to become decisive (meaningful).

Its not my cup of tea, but If I did have an interest in it I’d raise the rim another two feet to try and eliminate much of the easy scoring. The 7 ft blokes that barely have to get off the ground to place the ball inside the hoop is very tedious. The 6 ft to 6 ft 4 in blokes are infinitely more impressive, talented and watchable as accuracy is required for them to score as well as having to manoeuvre to get into a shooting position.”
