CAB Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 This is a little late, but after watching the Womens Final Four I saw the huge arch stretching clear across the court. I think I may have seen this been done in other basketball games too, and to be honest I don't really hate the whole giant logo thing, but I do think that it would be a little distracting to play on. What do you guys think? I did a quick search, but I didn't find any other topics on this, sorry if there was, you can graveyard this.After doing a search on the web, I couldn't find a lot of great pics of the floor, but I'll try to get some up later on.

eRay Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 I saw this year's court on TV while flipping through the channels. I thought it was a graphic SportsCenter was overlaying on the game footage. Talk about obtrusive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mings Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 If it was the correct proportions of the arch and more subtle it would be fine. As it is, not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAB Posted April 9, 2009 Author Share Posted April 9, 2009 Won't let me put it in directly, but here's a picture:http://a323.yahoofs.com/ymg/ept_sports_nca...mJPwDBDnTJAXYZb2008's court:2007:Aaah, I remember that court. That's probably the other one I was thinking of. I don't really mind that one, because it is only inside the 3-point arch, so I guess you wouldn't notice it too much while playing, but this years women's was very distracting IMO, not only to play on the court but to watch on TV also.

NEW.ERA Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 I love the Women's courts, I with the Men's courts were a little more creative. JETS|PACK|JAYS|NUFC|BAMA|BOMBERS|RAPS|ORANJE| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DelayedPenalty Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 I thought the arch might be a bit distracting for the players. Typically if you're running and you hit blue paint, you're either in the key, or out of bounds. It looks like it would throw off your perspective of the court while playing.
