    NRG Stadium Sucks the Energy out of Basketball


    VERY interesting given that the Final Four will be at NRG stadium next year.

    Watching the Elite Eight there a few years back, I can attest, it's a horrible venue to watch basketball, and, putting myself in players' shoes, I would hate to play there.

    The backdrop is all black, but it's shades of black based on shadows and curtains, which makes it hard to tell how far away is the basket. There is also a ledge around the raised court that just screams accident to someone sliding off the sides.

    See Ken Pomeroy's data on three pointers.
