Here are the pro's and con's of Basketball according to me.

PROS
1. Eric Gordon is magical
2. Basketball shorts

that's all I got.

CONS
1. it's lame.
2. it's literally men running around a court tossing a ball back and forth.
3. Women's Basketball (need i say more?)
4. The fact that pretty much any move is one or two or three points doesn't even make the actual slam dunks exciting... it's just some other points added to the score, which usually goes from the higher score to the lower score so often that you just lose interest altogether and decide it's easier to just not watch the game and have someone tell you the score later.
5. No one in any foreign country cares about it as much as they care about Soccer.
6. since when is a 250 lb guy grabbing and hanging onto a thin wire hoop a good idea?
