A Sign Of The Apocalypse ...

When you finally think that you've seen everything, something like this happens.



Here's LeBron James' take on the new ball: "Man please stop it! That’s bad karma for the game of pure basketball!"

Would love to hear what Mark T. DeNucci, Sr. thinks about this.

If the day ever comes when a square basketball is legal in the game, I'm hanging up my whistle, getting licensed to officiate croquet, joining the IAACO, and I'll be Mark Padgett's partner.

James Naismith is turning over in his grave.

When I saw the title, I thought you were referring to this, though it is not about basketball:

No need to worry, BillyMac. This is just a specialized ball used to practice shooting form, and would never be allowed in a real game. It doesn't fit any of the NFHS criteria for a legal basketball.

Hopefully this is just a humorous answer and you didn't think Billy was serious.
