Why is the play in basketball so lousy. It seems to me, that every game I watch is a turnover festival. I see play after play where these guys look like they have never seen a basketball in their life. It is not just the bad teams that play this way, the ranked teams play like this as well. It is so uniform that I believe there has to be a general reason for it. I have two theories. Number on is the especialy in college that the teams actually are allowed less time for practice, si the coaches work less on fundamental ball handling skills and footwork. It seems to me the players wrong foot themslves alot. My other theory is that it looks like all the players lift weights now and whe I played high school bALL,(79) the thought was that if you lifted weights too much you lose your hands. Anyway, just wondering what happen to this great sport and will it ever get better.
