The Big 3 won't be able to last more than two seasons. The players are old, and they get injured easily. Too many injuries, and a decline in popularity will lead to a league that becomes dormant after two seasons.
ReplyDeleteI'll play my old PlayStation games if I want to see Chauncey Billups, Allen Iverson, and Mike Bibby.
ReplyDeleteThe Big 3 is going to need to change the team names, and change the way they pick teams. College Alumni teams, or teams made of former Lakers, Celtics, etc. will improve the interest in the league. The Big 3 is just to random right now, and the teams sound the same.
