Basketball LEGO

A lot of people like LEGO and basketball, but are not aware of the LEGO sets, players and parts that were out  around 2003, especially set like 3433 Ultimate Arena.

There is a great little stop-motion LEGO basketball short film, recreating some of the highlight clips from past games.

As USA Today says:


"Every year during the NCAA tournament, CBS puts together highlight clips of some of the greatest plays the tournament has ever seen. And though we are sure you've them all -- you've never seen clips like these. That's because the players, the coaches ... everything is made up of Legos. Yes, Legos. The best part, though, is that the video below is a pretty spot-on representation of the real plays they memorialize. Just a smaller court, smaller ball and, yea, the Lego players."
