At best we’ve got until Sunday for some real solid hoops. After the playoffs basketball is absent in any form on any platform. That’s the reality. No more hoops is offered. But the ocean is so vast. Think of it this way. When one season ends another begins. We’re just getting started. Let’s celebrate this one as the inaugural. Hoop season has begun. August 25 of 1986. Nike Exhibition game featuring, Stefanel Trieste vs Juve Caserta. Michael Jordan dropped 30 on them and shattered the backboard with a dunk producing courteous in the wrist of an opposing player. 2:15 is all you really need to see.
