NBA on TNT Thursday Night Drinking Game
Despite ESPN's best efforts, TNT's Thursday night doubleheaders remain the king of regular season NBA broadcasts. With Ernie, Kenny, Chuck, and Shaq at halftime and legends like Marv Albert (YES!), Reggie Miller, and Chris Webber calling games, it's easy to enjoy both games as you mentally prepare for the weekend. To help you prepare physically as well, we've put together some simple rules for imbibing your favorite adult beverages while you watch a bunch of millionaires with absurd physical gifts dunk on each other. Y'know, in case the Chicago Bulls and Dallas Mavericks are playing in primetime for some reason. Cheers!
