Game 3 of the NBA Finals are on TV and of course a good portion of the field has a vested interest in the game. At a nearby table, that happens to be right in front of a TV, Ylon Schwartz was giving the table a bit of a history lesson.
He stated that the roots of basketball came from the Mayans that a ball and hoop game. The ruins of the fields have been discovered in the Yucatan.
"When the team lost the losing captain would have his head cut off," Schwartz said. "Now that's real sport."
We're not sure Jason Mercier agreed with Schwartz, he was busy worrying about his table breaking.
