The best part of the Wizards trip to face the Oklahoma City Thunder was Viola Brand’s halftime performance. Brand is a German artistic cyclist who’s won national and European championships twice, and took silver three times in the World Championships. She impressed with a Supergirl stunt where she did a horizontal handstand on a moving bicycle.
She did a bunch of other impressive tricks, which are difficult to describe, in part because I know nothing her sport except that it was a helluva good halftime show. The favorite at my house was when she stood on the handlebars and drove strong into the paint for a layup.
