An ad for the NBA.  This is so good.

I’ve watched more basketball in the 14 months I’ve lived in Toronto than the 14 years since I was running myself ragged every day at school on the blacktop. It’s funny how even at the level somewhere well below amateur that I played at, there are still memories of big shots, close games, and moves that came out of nowhere I will never forget.

Not at all in any way similar to what these guys do on a daily basis, but I think the reason these guys are so revered si so many people have stood on a court and tried to shoot a basket with nobody in front of them.

It’s only once you know how hard something is that you can fully appreciate the person that does it.

(P.S. Despite the use of auto-tune, this is an epic 30-spot.)
