Our Story: Why Enjoying Basketball Exists
I’ve been a basketball fan for as long as I can remember. I grew up watching NBA games (specifically the Jazz), reading articles, and spending time on youtube studying plays and watching highlights. Basketball was never just a hobby for me, it was a big part of my life. As I got older, though, I noticed how the game was being covered online. Most outlets focused on rumors, drama, and hot takes. Real basketball analysis — the kind that breaks down plays, strategy, and development — seemed harder to find. Big-market teams got all the attention, while smaller markets like the Utah Jazz barely made headlines.
That bugged me, but it also motivated me. So, I decided to do something about it. I created Enjoying Basketball as a space for genuine stories, thoughtful takes, and balanced basketball analysis. My goal is simple: remind fans why they love basketball in the first place. Here, I talk about what makes basketball great — the teamwork, the creativity, the strategy, and the players who don’t always get the spotlight. Whether I’m breaking down a smart defensive rotation or highlighting an underrated rookie, I want every post to reflect a true love for the sport.
More than anything, I want Enjoying Basketball to feel like a community. It’s a place for fans who appreciate smart basketball analysis but still love the fun side of the game too. Whether you’re a lifelong Jazz fan, a casual viewer, or someone who just enjoys good hoops talk, there’s something here for you. Basketball deserves coverage with heart and honesty — and that’s exactly what I’m here to bring with Enjoying Basketball.
