    Eastern Washington took the Boise State concept and went red with it.

    The city courts should have just been the tourney courts.

    The court literally drained the life from my eyes and I fell asleep at the beginning of the 4th. I didn't care to watch the game. Turns out I missed and entertaining nail biter win. Damn you court!!

    How could anyone have thought this was a great idea? It was so hard on the eyes to watch. I've only seen pics of the other courts, and from what I've seen, it looks like somebody came up with this idea when they were tripping or something. In fact, whoever approved it must have been too.

    As ugly and hard on the eyes as our court is, I'm not looking forward to hurting my eyes even more on some of those even uglier courts we will be going to.

    icymi, the NBA is behind this, having all teams do similar courts for the in-season tourney

    the court is obviously an homage meant to symbolize rebirth and ascension

    the red signifies the blood, sweat, and tears it took to get to this point

    the black and blue signifies how we leave our opponents after every win

    open your 3rd eye

    It was hard on the eyes, they are trying a little too hard. I imagine also these courts aren't cheap to make either.

    That Phoenix court though... I feel like I should stab my eyes with a rusty fork.

    I like the court. The reflections from the annoying LED lights are some what muted.

    It's one of those things that don't look too bad on paper, but when you play a basketball game on it it's just absolutely awful.

    All of these city courts or whatever they're calling them for tournament games have been HORRENDOUS and distracting.

    I get that they are trying to make these games special but these are all very, very, very awful.

    All the tourny courts are equally ugly IMO.

    Its the dominate bold red color that is annoying, the more light gray courts isn't too bad on my eyes.

    Do they have 5 year olds approving these courts. They're ridiculous.


    Also, where did you get the layout? I want to create my ugly Fresh prince tribute court.
