THE NBA AND PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING.

THE NBA AND PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING. I have long been aware that the NBA uses some of the promotional devices of professional wrestling. Nevertheless, I was surprised when I watched the broadcasts of the Christmas basketball games from the New York Knicks and the Detroit Pistons. Both teams were proudly showing scenes from fights that their players had been involved in in the past—scenes I would have thought would be embarrassing. I suspect that in some ways the NBA is pleased that the best player in the league is wearing a villain’s hat this year.
