Got the connection on some incredible seats for the Pacers Tourney game.

Bonus…my favorite Buckeye of all time, Braxon Miller was sitting in front of me. Got a pic with him at halftime (I’ll spare y’all my mug). Was supporting Dayton Flyer Obi Toppin (Pacers).

Great game and they beat Boston. NBA is unreal at this level.

Nothing like going from the key on one end and dunking at the other with 2 dribbles. It helps to have long legs, and carry it about 20 feet.

He went from inside the defensive three point arc to a dunk with one bounce.

I can't watch games on some of the in-season tournament courts. The blue/red contrast is fucking with my eyes. I can't focus. Had to turn it off. I'm not opposed to them, but I am opposed to the aggressive contrasts.

Getting old, boys.

Was looking forward to the Bucks/Pacers too.

PAAACEERSS. Fun stuff.

Haliburton is a star.

In Season Tournament has been a huge hit. LeBron went nuclear in the first half

The Unibrow goes 40, 20, & 5 in a game that doesn’t count.

$500 K per person for the winners.

To generate interest in November-December NBA basketball.

It seemed to have that desired outcome this season. Will be interesting to see if it'll continue to be a draw in the future or if it's just a shiny new object.

To make NBA basketball interesting before Christmas. Gotta say, I thought it worked, minus the distraction of the high contrast courts. Felt like a playoff atmosphere last night.

Also gotta credit LBJ and AD last night, they weren’t load managing minutes in an early Dec game. They were playing to dominate and get a nice $500 k bonus for all those guys at the end of the bench, which is basically going to be 40% pay increase on the year for them.
