I don't know much about sports, but I do notice when everyone around me is particularly happy about something. To celebrate the Bucks' NBA championship, here's my first 9x9 midi puzzle. Enjoy!

        Really smooth and you fit a lot of themed entries in there!

          I'm from 15A15ASee 12A[---------] and TIL that 12A12AWith 15A, home of the 2021 NBA champions[---------] is the same number of letters... I feel like this is something I should have realized earlier :) Nice solve!
          • Sommersmith constructor · 2021-07-23T18:29:19.247Z
            I was delighted when I spelled them out in my head and realized they matched!

                I was dreading the possibility of spelling Giannis' last name. Fun!
