Amount of air in a basketball?#2: Susan (Susan) on Aug 3, 2017
Nice small puzzle.#3: Aurelian Ginkgo (AurelianGinkgo) on Aug 3, 2017 [SPOILER]
Cool fun fact about the pounds per square inch of pressure inside a basketball. I suppose the standard required range is between 7.5 and 8.5? Or is it that the ball will not function correctly outside of those parameters?#4: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Aug 3, 2017
I googled the NBA inflation pressure.#5: Alison P Deem (Indigo1) on Aug 4, 2017

When we were kids shooting hoops in the cold weather, the ball would gradually soften, so we'd put it in the clothes dryer for a few minutes to firm it up. The racket it made would bring his mom running!#11: David Bouldin (dbouldin) on Sep 2, 2020 [SPOILER]
i can never remember whether to use fabric softener on basketballs or not#12: Meg Smith (mamadragonfreak) on Sep 2, 2020
i thought 7.5 - 8.5 was how tall you have to be to play professionally (feet-inches)#13: David Bouldin (dbouldin) on Sep 2, 2020
Goodness Meg! ...there are only 9 NBA players in history that fit in that range ;)#14: Aurelian Ginkgo (AurelianGinkgo) on Sep 2, 2020

Fun solve, whatever it is.#16: David Bouldin (dbouldin) on Sep 3, 2020
:P i'm actually trying to work through all of the comments on puzzles that i've solved (but didn't originally comment on) so that i'm all caught up. i'll probably be commenting more if for no other reason than to keep that backlog from happening again. next up i may tackle my saved/incomplete puzzles list...but that ones especially daunting!
