new year, old ball

The NBA has decided to reverse its decision to move to a composite official game basketball and revert to the old leather ball. The composite balls were moved to in order to keep every single ball the same because they were synthetic, but there was such a stink made over the switch that the NBA decision-makers made the call to go back to the all-unique leather balls. We'll see if Steve Nash is still comfortable with the old leather now that he's grown accustomed to the composite. Suns take on the Chicago Bulls, who have recently been surging and have become one of the to-beat teams in the Eastern Conference. The Suns are 9 - 1 against East teams this season, and they expect to be able to continue adding to that tonight. GO SUNS!
