In Conclusion ...

The article seemed to end too abruptly, so I added a concluding paragraph.

Since James Naismith invented the game of basketball and codified its rules in the late nineteenth century players have gotten taller, bigger, stronger, and faster, completely changing the way the game is played on both offense and defense. Rules have evolved over the years to provide equal opportunities between the offense and the defense, and between small players and tall players. That being said, as the game of basketball moves into the future rules must continue to evolve in response to changing player skills, and changing team tactics. In the words of Winston Churchilll, “To improve is to change; to be perfect is to change often".
