I’m not the lead basketball writer. I am short and had poor balance, so basketball was an abandoned activity after 7th grade. Everyone else got tall, and I spent time in other pursuits. Though I have to admit that during that year in school at Fort Knox, KY I played a whole lot of basketball. It’s a religion of sorts in the Bluegrass State.
So, basketball is no mystery to me. I also must admit that I really gained a bit ore interest as my daughter played in the CYO league in NOVA through elementary and middle school so Winter entertainment was driving around to different parish activity centers as her team played.
