Welcome to the Bat Cave

The media room here at the MCI Center is ... huge. They've put rows and rows of tables and cords on what is usually the Bullets - er, Wizards - practice floor. It's this massive open space, sort of like the ones that you always used to see in those old James Bond movies. You know, the inside of the volcano, or the offshore oil rig. The only thing that's missing is a bald guy stroknig a cat and an East German guy on a microphone doing the missile launch countdown.

This whole building is just enormous. After they let us in the building, we went down a flight of stairs, around a corner, around another corner, down a long hallway and then finally to the media room. All the while, I don't think I ever came anywhere close to the court. It's like they hired the same folks who designed the Pentagon to put this place together. I'm amazed I'm even getting one bar of cell phone reception under all this concrete.
