wait to see what they have inside and actually last weekend was in Shrine weekend I was watching it on TV Dirk Nowitzki and Dwyane Wade all those people Tony Parker welcome to the Hall of Fame I hear they have a statue of Dr James Naismith the man who created the rules in the game look at all these seats they're all Hall of Famers calling him the first coach yeah that definitely would be the case he was definitely the first coach Christine Smith North Carolina Legend Roy Williams and I believe Jim Valvano also got him this past weekend there aren't even worse to describe how excited I am to be here today as a kid born in 81 watching WGN I loved basketball because of this man right here Michael Jordan and actually I only wear Air Jordan 1 shoes pretty much always and that's what these are he changed the shoe game signed shoes right there a place six time NBA Finals these belong to Reggie Miller oh wow Pistol Pete Pistol Pete Maravich [Music] maybe the greatest ball handler of all time they even have his socks and I was also a big Grant Hill fan when he was on Duke and they have one of his Duke basketballs here one of his awards from duke and his signature Fila shoes that he wore on the court the logo Jerry West that's Jerry West Jersey and one of the game balls one of his shoes this is really cool this is Wilt Chamberlain's problem Globetrotter stuff 25 000 Point ball right

is Larry Bird this basketball right down here is painted is from him scoring his 20 000th point and there's his game worn shoes the converse game War in Jersey we haven't even entered the museum yet this is really cool this is Oscar Robertson stuff Cincinnati Royals wow talk about greatness all this stuff is out front before we even go in they even have like a basketball court you can play basketball in there let's go check out the inside so part of the experience here is they have basketballs with hand prints and you can measure up your hand against some of the greats like Anthony Davis Steph Curry Kevin Durant let's do Kevin Durant yeah I don't think so then you can check your height by some of the greats like Mugsy who's like the smallest five three and then here's some of the women players which I don't know anything about the WNBA so I'm not going to put much of that on here can't talk about what I don't know about The Greek Freak I'm a big fan of him he's 7-3 check that out my grandpa's probably loving this these are LeBrons that's his jersey from when he was in high school because he was one of the if not the last class I think that you could go directly from high school into the NBA and these sneakers were 2003 Rookie of the Year Amari stoudemires these are shoes worn by Trace McGrady he dedicated the game to his friend Eric Lamar Anderson who was tragically killed in 2003 it says although you're gone you're still here Lily and they say at the age of 17 Kobe Bryant was drafted by the Charlotte Hornets but then soon traded to the Los Angeles Lakers Bryant was the first guard to go from high school straight to the NBA the black Mambo won five NBA championships with the Lakers where's that trade these are the Joker shoes Serbia's Nikola jokic recorded the fastest triple-double in NBA history on February 15 20 2018 wearing these Nike Hyperdunks it took joke it's only 15 minutes no 14 minutes and 33 seconds holy holy awesome and then this is the shooting Jersey worn by Dirk Nowitzki during the game where he recorded his 30 000th Career Point that's Vince Carter's Carolina Jersey which is really cool to see Blake Griffin scored 50 points for the Pistons wearing this against the Flyers I'm a big Blake Griffin fans that's really cool and they also have his shoe from that game his jersey was worn by Sean Kemp they painted this ball because this was the game ball from the 20 000 career points of Dominique Wilkins and that was his jersey and then right next to it Julia serving Cersei Dr J shoes and there's the Air Jordan this is Nike introduced Michael Jordan's signature Air Jordan line in 1985 sparking a cultural marketing Revolution through basketball apparel yeah if you didn't see they made a movie about this and one of the big deals was that Michael didn't want to go with Nike nobody wanted Nike they all kind of wanted to be with Converse or Puma or Adidas mainly but they didn't want Nike and so Nike's idea was hey instead of just offering this guy whatever popular shoe that we have and having him wear the same shoe every other basketball player why don't we design a shoe around his personality and one of the big problems was that uh NBA had a rule that most of this shoe had to be white and this one was mostly red so Nike said if he'll wear these shoes and if he likes these we'll pay the fine for every game that he is fine for wearing these and Michael signed with Nike thanks to his mom Dennis Rodman's hat and sunglasses that he wore for the uh looks like his 2011 Hall of Fame ceremony and this is Clyde Frazier's jacket and Ty this basketball is signed by the 1982 National NCAA National University of North Carolina Tar Heels you can see Michael Jordan sign it right there and then this jersey was Christian leitner's Jersey I remember that game the elite eight set the Duke Blue Devils on the path to the program's Second National Championship this game there's Dennis Rodman's Defensive Player of the Year award Dwight Howard's Shoe which is huge Gary Payton's shoe and then Hakeem Olajuwon signed this basketball for his 2000 to block then maybe one of the greatest if not you know top

wasn't a fan he just always beat the teams that I liked and always seemed to do it very arrogantly in my opinion but uh sad way for him to go some of his shoes talking about how he was drafted by the Hornets he's the first guard to go to same thing they told us before there looks like five of his Rings wow that's really cool of his wife to loan him all five wow that Jersey's even signed then over here they have some more of his jerseys and shoes this is Laker jersey he was originally eight then after the whole accusation and everything he switched over to 24. it's one of his all-stargers he's
