Just play the game! Sitting with my eight year old daughter and watching the start of game 6 of the Eastern Conference Finals was an embarrassment. I sat thru the pregame which appeared to look more like a July 4th Rap concert. The fireworks....the lights .... the DJ to introduce the players! I understand the need to give the paying public a show, but is that not the players responsibility?
Give me a high school game any day. Those boys and girls give it their all night in and night out. Why is it do we have to wait until the playoffs to watch the the professionals play defense? The professional sports of the modern era has lost me. I will continue to support the local high school games in my area due to the hard work and effort the youngsters dedicate to the game.
