The worst part of any game is everything we do before tip off. I try to stand there not looking bored and as un-militant as I can be, but I'm just suffering through all of that. The most excitement is if someone dunks and that isn't even really exciting; I just calmly ask for the player's number if they are wearing warm ups.

It is mostly ceremonial and I feel it sets a tone. It is the opportunity for the leaders to hear your voice and give the coaches an idea of what they will deal with. Nothing more and nothing less.
Peace
