I fell in love with basketball in 1992 during the Bulls Vs Blazers series. I started following the Celtics the next season because they were the local team. My friend’s father told me all about the history, and I was even more excited. I’ll never forget my first Celtics heartbreak in the 1993 playoffs. Alonzo hit that dagger. Celtics, down 1, had .03 to inbound the ball, Kevin McHale to Dee Brown on an alley, just missed. Series over. I watched every second intently.
Obviously some down years after that so I just followed the league in general. I still remember being overly excited for Eric Montross an AC Earl. Anyway, yeah, I think I would still follow the league no matter what.
I’m surprised how many people are so down on the league right now, I think it’s never been better. There’s so much talent.
