Indoor 3 on 3 is around the corner (Nov. 10, 2012) and to build some more hype around it we have decided to do a 24 NBA team elimination bracket with the 4 greatest players (3 starters, 1 reserve) from each franchise and have them go head to head. Each day we will have a showdown between 4-6 teams and you will be able to vote on who would win a series in 3 on 3 games.
