Basketball fans have a lot to be grateful for this holiday season ... and every holiday season
NBA fans have a lot to be thankful for. On a nightly basis they get to watch the world's best basketball players and some of the most elite athletes go head-to-head. Thus, it only seemed fitting to use this year's Thanksgiving holiday as an opportunity to express some gratitude for a league that provides endless entertainment to millions around the globe. Here are five reasons for fans of the best basketball league in the world to be thankful this season.
It's not often sports fans unanimously agree on anything, but you'd be hard-pressed to find anyone who says Stephen Curry isn't the best shooter in NBA history. The dude is just unreal. He has completely redefined the game and the type of shots that are practiced in rec gymnasiums across the country, and in his 13th season he appears to be as good, or maybe even better, than ever. It feels like he breaks a shooting record every night, and in turn he and the Warriors are absolutely must-watch television.
