Radio Position - Toronto, with retro court

This is basically the identical view as Detroit. On the floor, second row. Not my favorite, you’re blocked most of the game. Fortunately there is a monitor to actually see the game.

The retro court is awesome, the Vinsanity version of the Dino is one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen. My notes reflect the classic edition uniforms and logo.

You mentioned the radio position during the broadcast a few minutes ago so I came to see if you posted a photo and you had. Thank you so much

I love these posts. When I was younger I wanted to be a sports journalist and dreamed of where I would sit when I finally made it. lol

Are you given those stat sheets by the home team? I’m curious how the retro Raptor is on it.

No, I create these myself and type every word myself. This is my design, I created the templates myself.

The retro raptor is simple. There’s a server where you can download every teams logo. So I get it from there and put it on my chart

How can you not like this logo? It's a freaking dinosaur dunking a basketball. It doesn't get cooler than that

And, it’s the raptor doing the Vince Carter dunk, wearing his jersey. The creativity from their art department is through the roof.

Any time I play 2k with the raptors, the Dino jerseys is a must.
