I love ball, don't get me wrong. I play all the time, and even recently had surgery on my knee because I blew it out from playing so much. But nowadays, the NBA players care more about $ and scoring 81 points in a game, and individual everything, than playing team ball. I truly think the game has lost its love, and passion.
I mean what ever happened to the retro shorts?

Now we see the NBA having Kobe Bryant, who some would consider the league's best player, not wanting to shoot the ball at the end of a game because he has already thrown in the towel, knowing his team lost.
Come on fellows, show some love. Play with your heart! Give your all until the final buzzer. Seriously, could we PLEASE bring back the love of the best sport in the world, basketball! I sure hoping so.
