Basketball References and Theater of the Mind




Ludacris' Theater of the Mind might be a bit over a year old, but I still listen to it on the daily. It's really hard not to - in my opinion this is one of Luda's best releases production wise and also very solid lyrically. With his wit and hysterical metaphors, how can you not love this guy? One thing I've noticed in the past year is that this album has numerous basketball references. So for the sake of humorous lyrics and over all knowledge here are the ones I've noticed.

"Gettin' live buying bottles thats taller than Chris Webber." (Everybody Hates Chris)

"The car is all black like it got traded to the Timberwolves." (Wish You Would)

"And I keep a little bit of that green up in the lining, but as the weather change my weed adjust to different climates, green in the summer time, orange in the spring, now its black with that purp I call my whip the Sac [ramento] Kings." (Wish You Would)

"Bow down to greatness before I get pissed and (Piston) run up in the stands like the Indiana Pacers." (Undisputed)

"You got defeated by the heat, but we'll just say we Alonzo (Mourning) mourned ya." (Undisputed)

"I'm on point like CP3, (Chris Paul) and I'll be going down in rap as the MVP." (MVP)
