NBA Photos (and Kobe Bryant)
Recently I've been voting for the NBA.com's photo of the year. I was really, really fascinated by the photo of Vince Carter. It was such a picture! Oh, boy!
Thanks to the magic of the camera, and the magical hands of Nathaniel S. Butler, Fernando Medina, and Andrew Bernstein, among others, the art of basketball is more appreciated.
Let's admit it, basketball is the most "catchy" sport in the world. You can argue, but whatever you say, I don't think so. As to soccer, it is reasonable to say that more people do better with their hands than with their feet. As to american football, basketball is a lot less-contact sport, which means to say that there is more grace and poise in basketball. As to hockey, not all people is good with sticks. As to boxing, wrestling, and combat sports, there's little beauty when you see violence in a "game". And so on and so forth.
In the game of basketball you have the most moves that you can do than in any other sport. And the moves that you can make are really good to look at compared to other sports. This is where the beauty of basketball stands.
NBA players do many of the best moves in the world of basketball, and when the moves are translated to photos, it becomes a masterpiece.
The NBA Photo of the year award started nine years ago, and seven of the awards were won by photos of only two guys: Vince Carter (3, but I think he will win this year) and Kobe Bryant (4). All of the pictures of those guys that won awards were airborne as taken.
Notwithstanding Vince Carter, I think my b-ball idol, Kobe Bryant, ultimately exemplifies the aesthetics of basketball today. I am seeing many pictures taken of him and I can't get tired looking at it.
Whoa!
