Basketball is unwatchable, even in person, late in the season when most of the teams give 60% at best.

Honestly, I'm kind of the same on most sports. Though for me, Football is mostly unwatchable except for maybe the superbowl, and even that is just for the commercials. Now I should also clarify though. I mean american football. Soccer is awesome!

Baseball I tend to like being there at the games, but even watching them on TV. It's a alot of strategy and psychological warfare between batters and pitchers, but also having the right defense usage to back that up. That's before even getting runners on base. Hockey and football even with plans are more immediate heat of the moment and adaptability from pre-planning, but baseball is much more about long form strategy that includes elements of that mental to physical reaction time too at key moments.

As for playing sports though... Yeah, baseball is one of my faves, but dodgeball is a passion outright.
