Does anyone know where to get a high res (or better yet, vector image) of the Phoenix Suns court? I am really not even picky about which court. I am looking for a top-down view so I can use it as a background to the plexiglass backboard I have up in my office.

This is the best I can find online, and it isn't great.

Ooh. That will be cool. Show us pictures once you've got it.

I really want to put up a small nerf hoop in our living room. For some reason my wife doesn’t like the idea at all.

My son has one of those smaller pop-a-shot dual hoops from Costco in his bedroom, and another mini hoop you can dunk on (has a steel rim, but is half-size). But I can't be on conference calls from his bedroom, so I need one in here for my sanity.

And 'Dack, maybe if you made it match your living room décor she would be more into it.

Aside from having a basketball hoop mounted on the wall in her living room I think she is more afraid of me breaking things. I have a real hoop in the ground next to the pool that I shoot baskets at all the time and I still manage to break things. She has a small statue of a boy and a girl together holding an umbrella. I had to glue his arm back on after an errant shot. She planted these nice flowers in a round container just larger than a basketball and I managed to crush half the flowers in another errant shot that landed perfectly in that basket.

LOL. I hear you. I might have taken out a lego x-wing from my son's room.

My HOA won't allow hoops out front, and my backyard doesn't have a good spot right now. I guess I should get one of the pool ones. Or I am thinking about ripping out my spa and putting a sport court in there.

My next house is going to have at least a half court with a built in hoop.

That is what I said before buying this one. But we had 1 day to look, found a place in our preferred school district in a great neighborhood, and had to move. The house at the end of the street has a full half-court in the backyard (but it is painted with Lakers colors, so I think I am going to burn it down).

You should transfer it brick by brick during the night to your house and repaint it with Suns colors. You have my permission.

I highly recommend the pool one. Nothing better than being in the pool in the summer shooting hoops. It’s actually good exercise, fun and gosh darn it, people like it.

Thanks.

I found this guy's flickr gallery which is amazing. But he disabled downloads.

Suns start on page 2, and continue on page 3.

Which one do you specifically want? I can work my magic and get it downloaded for you.

I am trying to get 3:

The madhouse:

This black one: Talking Stick Resort Arena (2015/2016) by kodrinsky, on Flickr

And this recent purple one:Talking Stick Resort Arena (2019) by kodrinsky, on Flickr


I wish they had The Valley one on there, but alas...

Ask and you shall receive.

THANKS AIG!

Since were on the subject, there was a Kevin Johnson "Lithograph" I had as a teenager that I cant find online.

It was basically a high res drawing of KJ driving to the hoop and Jason Kidd is watching in the background.

Anyone else remember this?

That's an awesome idea Indy. Sounds like you've been working from home for a while huh...
