Best & Worst Introduction Videos
Today I was reading an article on Bill Simmon’s new blog Grantland.com. Although the post seemed pretty interesting, I was distracted by a link in the article to a youtube video of the 2010-2011 Cleveland Cavs introduction video. Although that particular video is just sad and pathetic, it did get me thinking. I began to look for the best and worst introduction videos of all time. The result was a patchwork list of some of the more notorious intro videos of throughout the years. I decided to grade each of the videos based on music selection, quality of highlights, sentimentality, pump up quotient and comedy.
Worst Videos
Houston Rockets 2009 Playoffs Intro
Music: 5
Highlights: 3
Sentimentality: 0
Pump up Quotient: 2
Comedy: 7 (unintentional)

I feel dirty rating a video poorly that starts with Chuck Hayes bashing a ball into flames, but this video is abysmal. Unless the fans are huge fantastic four fans, this video does little to pump anyone up while also not touching down on any of the Rockets great basketball potential. It doesn’t help that this squad was as boring as they come so I guess having Brett Barry spinning a fireball might have been a halfway decent idea to spice things up.
