Basketball was never meant to be hockey. The NBA used to be much more physical in the 80s and 90s than it is today you actually had players known as enforcers.

You play the way they let you. But physicality did not beat Alabama yesterday lazy passes weak ballhandling stubborn offensive play and horrible shooting did.

Going to go a different direction and say soccer. Teams are conditioned to fake injuries, flop and do anything they can to fool the refs. There are no repercussions on the players. The ref is on a island out there so when shite goes down it can get dangerous. The fans are violent and has in many cases charged the field and attacked them.

I get the challenges in other sports, but soccer has a weird mix of bullshite and violent fans that make it very challenging.
