Still more Hoosier Hoops, this time from the House 🏠 that Reggie Miller built and Caitlin Clark is redesigning…

First time live with the NBA Cup floor in place…

Funny thing about this one…. it wasn’t on the original list but as we were leaving Butler University we noticed a sign reading that tickets were available for as little as $5.00. Not a typo, NBA ticket for $5.00.

It is 2-15 versus 2-16 tonight but my ties 👔 to the Indiana Pacers dates all the way back to their days in the ABA. Having a 40 year old Son that was born here = being really old. But that’s better beats being deceased….

Gainbridge Fieldhouse replaced the ancient Market Square Arena and they did a tremendous job with it!

It’s 28° outside so Lin was smart 🤓 enough to stay at the Hotel 🏨 for this one.

UVA connection – both teams have 1 former Wahoo – Anthony Gill versus Jay Huff…

Greetings from the Top of the Rockies ! Just for fun as some may never see 👀 them…. Purdy, they are !
