Also, 90% of the players are genetic mutations and the only reason this isn't more obvious is the long lenses used for TV.

This may be the one reason to enjoy Allen Iverson: he's not a genetic mutation and is still quite good. This may also be the one reason to enjoy college basketball where the mutants have not yet been selected.

(In football, they are 70% genetic mutations, but the 30% "regular humans" touch the ball the most. In hockey, only the goalies are different from the rest of us, what with their chronic brain damage telling them they enjoy being hit in the face with 100 MPH projectiles.)
