NBA Twitter Ripped The H-O-R-S-E Challenge
With every major sports league in hiatus due to the global Covid-19 pandemic, we all might have been a little too excited about ESPN’s H-O-R-S-E Challenge.
Due to the current situation, no camera teams were involved and the footage of the players’ cellphone cameras simply was awful. Aside from the poor quality, the matches mostly were pretty boring, too. NBA Twitter also thought that the event wasn’t all that great and went to work:
