I'm 41, and this is by far the most iconic theme song for a sport in the history of human existence. Mr. Tesh you are the man. This song is a masterpiece. I've had this as my cell phone ringtone for quite some time now. When someone calls me and I just happen to be out in public it is amazing how many people my age and older react to hearing it. People love it! This is the 1990's. Sports in general were worth watching and life was simple, creative, and fun. I wish we could go back. Thanks for the everlasting memories, John! Keep doing your thing!!!

One of my favorite theme songs for any sports coverage, "Roundball Rock," composed by John Tesh as the theme song of NBA on NBC which aired from 1991 to 2002; and also used when Michael Jordan won six championships with the Chicago Bulls.

Don't forget Dream Team when Olympic basketball is on NBC. This theme was also on Olympic basketball coverage in the 1990's and used in Olympics whenever the Gold Medal is on the line.
