I'm not a basketball fan anywhere close to the immersion I put into football. (Or even the Diamond Dawgs.) Years ago I realized the "live & die on every play with the Dawgs" was making hoops miserable for me. Missed rebounds or bad passes 3 minutes into the game was causing an irrational level of stress that was just unsustainable to the pace of a basketball game.

So I backed off. During games, I mostly just check game trackers & stats every now and then. Will tune in to watch the last 5-10 minutes of a close game. So I enjoy all you guys who discuss the games, players, roster, etc...
