I agree. Don't get me wrong, I love basketball and the NBA but I don't really get much out of watching guys jack up 3's at a rate never seen before. What is entertaining to me is guys like Westbrook, Lebron, Jordan, Kobe etc. Guys who use their raw physical tools to destroy.
I feel like now athleticism not quite as important. I want to see guys flying through the air, being physical in the paint, slicing and dicing. Not a 3 point contest. That is what the NBA is becoming.
The reason it is increasing in popularity is because of demographics, and with the dwindling of NFL and MLB there needs to be something to fill the void.
