Mathematicians Explain Sports to Each Other

Just when I think I’ve heard every math pun under the sun, Math With Bad Drawings comes up with a new one. This week’s edition is called “Mathematicians Explain Sports to Each Other.” The one on basketball is my favorite.

To see the others (on tennis, soccer, golf, baseball, hockey, marathon, tee ball, cricket, and skiing), click here.
