Nothing the Black Eyed Peas or Rob Thomas brought to the NBA playoffs has been good. I like Fort Minor's album but I'm afraid I'll have to skip Mike Shinoda's first single after these playoffs when they play the song a hundred thousand times.
That said, it's a better playoffs song than anything since the NBA on NBC anthem. And if ESPN's coverage so far is an indication it'll be more subdued than thrown in my face twice every five minutes. I'll give ABC the benefit of the doubt and assume it was chosen due to the chorus:
This is ten percent luck, twenty percent skill
Fifteen percent concentrated power of will
Five percent pleasure, fifty percent pain
And a hundred percent reason to remember the name
But either way it's not John Tesh. John Tesh and cowbell = clutch for the playoffs.
Oh snap, you can get a Roundball Rock
ringtone.
