I love basketball; literally a 3rd of my waking life has involved it until earlier this year when i broke my back.
But basketball was invented by a Canadian; and your year was wrong.
edit: year right, place right just was thinking about who not place. I am still hurting from last night, not thinking right.
The first rules were finalized in 1892 tho, the idea began in 1891. It was built as an indoor game since it got so cold. Ironically I like playing when it's windy outside; you either adapt to the wind or it becomes a paint game. Adjusting a jump shot when it's windy is hard and becomes worse the farther you are from the basket, so it really hones your skills once you are indoors. Add that into summer Texas heat and getting sweat in your eyes will make you a beast in an indoor cooled gym.
