Subject: High School basketball game ties for lowest scoring ever
chaos0xomega wrote: Basketballs always been a cruddy game anyway, from a game design perspective the rules (even at the NBA level) are basically fundamentally broken, and it doesnt help that a lot of the rules in the game are usually unenforced (I dont remember the last time I saw an NBA player get called for traveling, even when they are very clearly traveling).
That's because of what basketball truly is: A game designed by a rugby coach who wanted his rugby players to stay active during the off season.
That reminds me of the quotation that head races are just a way of getting crews to do long rows.
