Attention NBA fans:

There's lots of talk about the Lakers, Celtics, Magic, and Cavaliers, but I trust you're rooting for the San Antonio Spurs this year. If not, you will be grievously disappointed. A word to the wise is sufficient.

Last night's game was Halloween night, and someone had snuck a bat into the area. The poor bat went flying about the court, interrupting play several times. The referees and the team mascot (a big stuffed coyote) tried unsuccessfully to catch him. Finally this happened:



And the Spurs won, too.

That's hilarious. Excellent eye-hand coordination indeed! :) I hope the poor little bat was okay...

I'm sorry to say it died. Manu didn't mean to kill it, but since it's dead now, the Spurs should stuff it and display it over the door of the visitor's locker room with this warning: "You too will share his fate".

Did he just catch it? Wow.

Well, he knocked it out of the air and then picked it up from where it had fallen on the court. He thought it was just dizzy. He makes his opponents dizzy too. Mwahahaa. :)
