... Hey look you guys, the NBA is back!!! - So I guess that's pretty cool. Final preseason games are wrapping-up this weekend and the actual season starts next week - In honor of this momentous occasion Grantland took the time to rank the court design for all thirty teams...Here is the link:
Glad to see that my Bulls placed relatively well and near the top of the list at number five - AND - That Urban Legend about Phil and Tex ordering the placement of the four Bull heads opposite the free throw lines as a visual identification point for wing players to set-up the Triangle Offense is pretty dang cool - I wonder if it is actually true?
... Here is the court design for my beloved Chicago Bulls:
... Here is the court design for my beloved Chicago Bulls:
The Hornets' new court design earns high marks with this subtle honeycomb look and the striking teal border - This is pretty nifty; I for one am glad the Teal and Purple are back in Charlotte:
Toronto's court design is nice too - I like the greyish/silver text contrasted with the black background bordering the court...Looking sharp - BUT - Question...What exactly does "We the North" mean?" - I feel like it should say "We are the North" or "We are in the North" - Wacky Canadians:
The Lakers won this beauty contest followed closely by Boston - Typical - And the last place team is...Yup, you guessed it - Cleveland.
... I have to say, their court design it is pretty terrible and honestly Cleveland's entire franchise is SCREAMING for a re-brand.
Talk about BORNING!
It is almost like a bunch of fat-cat, white Ohio Executives sat around a wide mahogany conference table asking themselves just how 'meh' they could make that team look...And then they simply slapped a gigantic 'C' in the center of the court and drove home to their homes in the suburbs in their Lincoln Continentals...Yawn:
Fuck Cleveland.
Fuck LeBron.
Fuck LeBron.
Go Bulls,
See Red,
B.
See Red,
