Storming The 90's

Although this could have been done way more informatively with moving people rather than arrows just pointing the way (if you've ever watched NFL Matchup on ESPN on Friday nights, you've seen examples of how well you can diagram a play with replays and a telestrator), this very basic explanation of various NBA defenses is actually fairly informative.

Although it is a little odd that they paced the graphics such that Van Gundy, normally a lively and funny speaker, sounds vaguely retarded while explaining what's going on.

Still, it's good to see the Times get into the whole 1999-era multimedia presentation, even if it's less graphically entertaining than I would expect from a high-school programming project these days.
