As a new crossword solver, this was fun. The theme was very apparent from the beginning, and I got it immediately. This was a fun solve and many of the clues I didn't have to google lol 15A- After googling 4D, I managed to get FLAW??. then I figured out it was FLAWED. 16A- I kept thinking it was Alley-Hop or Alley-Top. I'm not very knowledgeable in basketball lol. 40A- I didn't expect to be correct by placing ATARI as my starting guess 68A- Everything was coming together for this clue. I thought the formation was nice. 22D- By getting PHD, I knew it had to be Prairie. I'm just glad I was correct lol 28D- This was clever. This was a fun intersection between math and another language. 47D- I was thinking ARMSWAY because of the route from tip to tip. I had to think outside the box for this one and I liked it. Getting better every day :>
