On ESPN's Page 2, there's an account of a Rockets/Spurs game from pharmaceutical project manager Casey Harverstick, who got a seat on press row thanks to ESPN.
It's a fun read, especially if you were looking for a reason to think positively about Matt Bonner.
Some highlights:
>>During timeouts, Dikembe rubs other players' heads.
>>Oops, I almost cheered. The Worldwide Leader told me not to cheer.
>>Dikembe gripes to a ref during a timeout, even though he hasn't been watching the game. Love this guy.
>>The Spurs mascot, the Coyote, gets too close to Bonzi Wells during a timeout. Bonzi looks scared.
>>The Fox Sports crew has a batch of homemade cookies. Too many for them to eat. Should I ask?
>>Speaking of food, it's a tight game, and Dikembe is entranced by the blimp dropping Quiznos coupons.
>>The Hawks scout thinks I'm spying on him. He's practically turned his back to me. I hide my notes. We're at war.
>>Up close, Brent Barry looks like Vanilla Ice.
