Hits and misses.

As a spectator, I've never been able to see the attraction in basketball.  One team goes up one end and scores, and then the other team goes up the other end and scores and so on.  Boring.  I'm sure it's skillful, but a game that is determined more by failing to score than by scoring doesn't do anything for me - imagine that we decided to replace football matches by a 90 minute penalty shoot-out - once the novelty had worn off, I couldn't see that attracting the crowds.
