Should Basket ball be played among equals?
By Equals i meant, on physical apperances,like height,weight, People who are very tall do have advantage while playing the game then a Normal height man.If you see Boxing, they have categories based on your Body weight, so that a flyweight boxer doesnt box a Heavy weight boxer

I think not because it depends on talents/skills. You can be tall and strong but ineffective, you can be skinny and small but sharp. As the saying goes "The ball is round and that no one really knows where it would fall". Boxing is totally different, it's an individual match-up that's why it goes by weight categories.

No, it is not so.
There are many disadvantages of height
takes time to bend low
comparison wise slower than shorter ones
dribble gets easy
whereas a heavy weight person
can block easily
can intercept passes
can easily throe long passes, 3-pointers
so its not a game for tall or light weight people all together

no because for height theres different position for ur height. normally those tall ones play forward or centre while the shorter ones plays guards as they are faster. however this doesnt mean tall people cant play guard and vice versa. for weight, mostly centres weigh heavier then guards as they use physical stength against their opponents, thus needing to train more.

i play and that i like it!! some ladies are actually not petrified of the sport itself as they are messing up! cuz i replaced into continuously afraid to shrink to rubble in front of all and sundry yet i eventually have been given over it and performed and now i like it! so the suggestion i supply is dont be afraid to make a screw up, each and every person does!
