Title: Big3 - Anyone watching? Post by: Phishfan on July 20, 2017, 02:38:38 pm When I first heard about Big3 basketball I thought it might be something that could catch my interest. Once I found it on TV I quickly found out differently. I only made it through a couple of possessions before I realized I was watching out of shape (from the game I saw) guys basically playing pickup basketball. Has anyone else given it a shot?

I've seen better shot making at the lunchtime pickup games at the local YMCA. That said, I like the rules and the premise of the games, so hopefully they can attract some better players if they make it to another season.

Title: Re: Big3 - Anyone watching? Post by: Sunstroke on July 31, 2017, 02:57:44 pm I watched roughly 15 seconds of it before thinking "seriously?" It is, as Phish described, out of shape dudes playing pickup hoops. Title: Re: Big3 - Anyone watching? Post by: Phishfan on July 31, 2017, 03:23:05 pm How does it work? It's just half-court basketball? That is it. Title: Re: Big3 - Anyone watching? Post by: BuccaneerBrad on July 31, 2017, 05:13:48 pm More drama than anything
Title: Re: Big3 - Anyone watching? Post by: masterfins on July 31, 2017, 10:46:03 pm Chauncey Billups looked pretty good for part of a game I was watching last week. If this is able to last maybe they could get some recently retired guys to play, like a Kobe. Problem is the money they would be paid isn't worth their time at this point.
