Pretty sure he tries to take a charge in there.

This is awesome. The NBA has a future with this technology.

Loved the slow motion 3pt shot showing the perfect form. This is also going to be a great tool for coaches trying to teach kids proper shooting mechanics, keeping your head on a swivel on defense and keeping your head up while dribbling and looking down court for teammates to pass to.

Anyone else find GoPro videos slightly disorienting?

It's like the Blair Basketball Project.

Also showed why it's important not to be a spectator when the other team makes a bucket. He got back quickly after that first made shot and had an easy lay-in.

My daughter just bought a Go-Pro for her pole vaulting, I watched a few pole vaulting GoPro clips on youtube and it was very disorienting.

I think the value of most GoPro shots is for the wearer. I considered and decided against buying and wearing one for a recent road race of some note. I then used my phone to take some brief handheld video instead. Watching it would drive anyone else crazy but having been on the back of it, it's unforgettable footage for me to have. The GoPro version would have been infinitely better and I'm kicking myself still.

I didn't know if there was a topic about this already, but if we could keep Tommy's family in your thoughts and prayers it would be greatly appreciated. Tommy's father was involved in an motorcycle accident and has been hospitalized. All the information I know is from Tommy's Facebook, but his dad has several injuries.

I don't think I have the same sensation with Google Glass videos, which is weird.

I imagine if a modern-day Bill Veeck was around, he'd embed a GoPro in a helmet or something.

Now, that's a scary thought . . . Bill Veeck with a GoPro. He'd probably put the video live streaming on the stadium video board, too, or something even crazier that I'm too sane to even imagine! ;-)
