See what was brewing with Jen Scordo today. Every day on The Best Show Ever? Jen Scordo shares a few recent weird and interesting news stories. Today that includes a glass court for the NBA and distractions at a college basketball game… Here are her stories from today.
The NBA All Star Game Will Be Played On Glass Court
Ok, this is weird… but intriguing… the NBA All Star game this season will be played on a glass LED court. Now remember, the in-season tournament courts earlier this season were extremely distracting. Will this glass court be just as distracting? Probably, but it will also probably be very cool. It will allow for some really cool graphics, colors, designs, etc. The All Star game will take place in Indianapolis, Indiana on February 18th. Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey are your 76ers All Stars this year. Though obviously Embiid will not play.

Oakland University Fans Attempt To Distract Cleveland State Free Throwers
Young college kids can be so creative. The swimming and diving team from Oakland University decided that the best way to distract the Cleveland State basketball players while they were at the free throw line, was to shave each other’s heads. While wearing Speedos. I suppose it worked to a certain extent because Oakland beat Cleveland 83 to 71. The two schools are rivals evidently, so I’m sure these kind of antics go way back. And I love it. And swimmers and divers shave their whole bodies for competition, so it wasn’t a huge sacrifice.
