Basketball is a winter sport and should be in the winter olympics (or hockey should be in the summer olympics so as to not interfere with the professional season, like with the olympics and professional basketball.)

I will die on this hill.

Interesting - never thought of it like that but I think that because basketball is that it's a sport that is played in room temperature conditions and there is no need for snow nor ice so that's why it's in the Summer Olympics.

Basketball was explicitly invented as a winter sport as a way to exercise when going outside was unpleasant. It has for the entirety of its existence been a sport played in winter. There is nothing about any of the skating sports that requires winter anymore so than basketball since they are all held indoors in climate controlled arenas.

This isn't the ICE OLYMPICS

basketball season is fall through winter. Summer is always off season.

being an indoor sport does not mean it is a summer sport.

Hockey and basketball have the exact same seasons! They should be in the same olympics!

Basketball was also invented by a Canadian, Dr. James Naismith, so yeah - there might be something to Justin's train of thought...i'mma gonna dial up Samaranch and get this done

I mean I agree that there should be indoor sports at least

would be good for television ratings, and for bored sports watchers

I hope Canada cleans our (Doomsday) clock.

And I know Norway is gonna regulate, like they do.

And China is going to win all the dumb crap no one cares about, but rack up a lot of medals.
