5 on the court mean there are more variables in football. That's not to mention the other 11 players who play the other side of the ball in football. But there are two factors that I believe will result in better parity in the NBA. One is the CBA. I think it will help spread out super stars. The other is the trends in how teams play. The best teams are the ones that can put 5 guys on the court that can shoot, pass, and dribble. Doing so requires good player development along with savvy trades and signings. This is why Dallas was able to turn it around as quickly as they did.
