you literally think a person saying their NBA team of choice being better than the fucking 76ers is a 'schtick'

a literal thing you think.

Maybe Damon brought him the soup without a spoon and JR tried to do the Coming to America "taste the soup!" bit.

Oh, hey, my season ticket renewal package is cheaper than I remember. Mid-court lower balcony + parking pass is less than $2k for a pair of tickets.

Lookit the guy who's never been in a foodfight. Soup is like a shotgun dude. Wide range.

If you're at close range sure but if you're trying to get any sort of distance you're just going to spray innocent bystanders with broth. Irresponsible, if you ask me.

The view is basically 10-20 feet above the normal broadcast view, too. Center court and everything. No one directly in front of me, just the walkway and then some other rows at the very bottom of the balcony.

I was mentioning this the other day to Rick but I consistently got student tickets to 7 Seconds or Less Suns games for around 10 bucks max. You better believe I saw more proto-New NBA Suns games than I ever would have thought possible. Even got to see TheBron's second game in the NBA, I'll never forget it. Meanwhile it costs a billion dollars for good seats at Celtics games nowadays

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
Wow, it's 1,600+ for a single similar seat in Phoenix. Which is especially harsh since the secondary market value of most of those tickets is $11 a game.

Harden's move is just almost completely uninteresting for anyone who isn't familiar with basketball. Lebron's move is amazing regardless of one's knowledge.

It could have messed everything up, but Nash probably wouldn't have broken his leg. That's what truly ruined him.

Jim Gray is universally despised and a fake journalist. You may be right. We can go back in time and announce that three friends have decided they want to play basketball and win a championship together, their agents could have dropped hints so that it wasn't seen as a betrayal, boom ESPN is saved from becoming Takes Takes Takes R Us and wouldn't be in such a psychic freefall. They'd be showing dirt track midget racing, sumo, boxing, jet boat river racing, live from thailand muay thai matches, and edge NFL matchup esque shows fo r all the sports. Sports fans would be wiser, more well rounded, and not jukeboxes of pro take havers soundbites. I think you should build this time machine.

ESPN needs to bring back paintball tournaments, scrabble and exercise shows.
