Prince music and the NBA playoffs

Watching the Cavs marching toward taking control of the series 2-0 and noticed [i]Kiss is one of our favorite songs @ the Q...what Prince songs do U think would make good basketball music @ the games...ok...ok...U can include other artists...but Prince's catalog is so expansive...do we really need to include others? headbang hmm
Was it good 4 U?
Was I what U wanted me 2 B?

If it's not alright...it will B
Because...even when I lose...I win

I always thought "Looking for the Perfect Beat" by Afrika Bambataa would be a great NBA song.

Many NBA arenas play Kiss because they do a thing called "KISS CAM". They put couples up on the big screen while Kiss is playing and they wait to move to the next shot until that couple kisses.

...I used to be a board op at ARCO Arena and I would play "It's Gonna Be a Beautiful Night" as intro music for boxers Tony Lopez, and Loretto Garza.

I always thought "New Position" would be good. ...And James Brown's "The Big Payback" is perfect for a team behind in a series that is coming home.

I love the idea of "The Big Payback" and now that I think of it, I have heard "Lets Go Crazy"...Kiss is played during the Cavs game with and without kiss cam..."Musicology" also is pretty cool, and I think the name of the song, is "We Do It" by Maceo on the after concert cd that came with "One Nite Alone" love that song and it would rock as a basketball song...so would stir u up cool...now I think of it "It's Hot N Here" by Nelly would be cool...Usher's "Yeah" is huge and not just because he is a part owner. "We Get's Up" would get the job done...Also Mary Mary's "Get-Up!!" pushes U into another level...Heck, the Cavs, should have a Prince nite and just do the darn thing....2 B honest the next best song would B "We Are The Champions (Of The World)" by Queen is the most anticipated song 4 us.. .a must cool...12 more games....so many goals...so many... nod woot! clapping stickpoke popcorn
