The only player I like is Dirk, and he’s German.

I like to think of the NBA I grew up watching with players such Jerry Lucas, Elgin Baylor and the like. There wasn't anything thuggish about the sport in those days, Sports, like every other institution in our society, has gone downhill in the last forty years. The NBA isn't what it used to be, but neither is anything else. I also grew up watching stock car racing but the the NASCAR of today is just as unwatchable as the NBA of today.
