Title seems like a spam bot posted it eh? But I assure you the title is accurate! This video surfaced today on reddit's NBA subreddit

As you can see, true professionals use trackballs.

you know this is truly old school when you got that bundle of empty cd sleeves on the bed lmao

it's kind of interesting that even with the esports bubble of recent, i haven't seen any of those spurs players make any investments etc in to the industry given how much they loved the original sc.

Funny you choose now to make that claim as news this week that some retired NBA pro just invested a bunch into esports. I can't seem to find that source now, but I did find Kobe Bryant investing heavily into esports, including funding of an esports training ground.

Actually the news this week might have been about Kobe as well, this was Sept. 19th:

1999 was a painful year for New York Knicks fans. They played their heart out and barely got into the finals after a series of really close games with several players severely injured, just to get stomped by the San Antonio Spurs. Without Ewing, the Twin Towers were just too much to handle.

I also think there was one game where the Knicks finally got a sizable lead, so the Spurs subbed in Kerr and he chained like four three-pointers in a row and it was "gg ez."

I swore to never root for underdog teams ever again. At least the New York Yankees didn't suck

What's even more confusing to me is the random cameo of "Acid Rain" by Liquid Tension Experiment. Not only were the core band members (John Petrucci, Mike Portnoy, Jordan Rudess) fairly on the outskirts of popular music with Dream Theater, but LTE is a random superband that did like two very small tours.
