I’ve said it once, I’ve said it 1,000 times: my favorite thing about sports is the playing surface.
I love freshly painted end zones. A freshly cut baseball diamond gets me hot and bothered. And don’t get me started on a clean sheet of ice after the Zamboni just got done suckin it off. Sometimes I yell “me next!” once that beautiful vehicle finishes its last piece of dirty, dirty ice. Usually only a beer vendor shows up.
When I go to games, I scream let’s go FIELD! So you better believe that when the NBA unveiled new court designs league-wide for its upcoming In-Season Tournament, I was fully, fully torqued!
This is what the NBA truly needs to make games that aren’t played before April relevant! Take those obnoxious alternate “City Edition” jerseys and slap it on the floor! Adam Silver, you little penis you, you’ve cracked the code to getting your overpaid stars to actually give a flying fuck!
LeBron, KD, Steph and Giannis would simply be crazy to sit out of these games and pass up the opportunity to break ground on a fresh floor!
