    Yeah, WTF? That pee stained court is the worst in the league, and not because of the team playing on it. It's terrible.

    Our floor needs something special, like bathroom tile. Useful when the toilet floods.

    Technically, pee is #1. So, it makes sense that their court is #1.

    Pretty easily my fav, too.

    It looks like Toronto and Portland had the same court designer.

    Ive always seen that old Hawks logo as a pac-man. When I was a kid I could never figure out what it was supposed to represent!

    Agree with Lowe on our ranking. It's markedly uglier from our classic but simple design from last year. Don't change it when it works.

    But my #1 would easily be CHA. Holy shit, that looks boss.
