NBA Başladı Başlayacak

Cumartesi turumun bir başka ayağı NBA.com. Sezonun başlamasına 2 aydan az zaman kalmış bunu farkettim ve durup duruken mutlu oldum. 6 ekimde ilk maç Boston - Toronto. Hemen listeden Memo'yu ne zaman izleyeceğiz diye Utah'ın ilk maçına baktım 10 ekimdeymiş. Bir de Cleveland 'ın ilk maçına baktım LeBron'u ne zaman izleyeceğiz diye o da 9 ekim. Hadi bakalım hayırlısı. Sabahın ilk ışıklarına kadar maç izleme seanslarının eli kulağında.

Not much left for the lunch of NBA. Games are starting with Boston Celtics - Toronto Raptors on Oct.6 . What I am interesting most are the Utah games as there is NBA All Star Mehmet Okur and not even mentioning Cleveland, There is Brother LeBron. Do you watch NBA games or an NFL fan Keith? I know u like football but I also know that the MLS sucks. Poor American players even think that the game they are playing called soccer. What a shame :)
By the way, I guess I need to make a few explenation for my Porteguese padawan about all these, as long as he beleives that the only sport on earth is Football :)
Saraiv mate! Listen! there is another type of game, called "basketball", it is like football but instead of kicking the ball players are holding it by their bare hands!! and suprisingly they are not having any yellow card neither causing penalty.!! I know it sounds wierd. And I am sure that u r curious who the hell is this guy in the pic, right? Hmm let me explain you likeee, he is Christiano Ronaldo of this wierd game :) I think thats enough for now, u learnd enough wierd things for today :)

My favorite sport is american football, followed closely by basketball, then european football (yes, American soccer sucks). I think if european football was on television as much as the NFL, I would hold it higher, but as it is, from Sept 1 till February 8, there is nothing else for me but NFL and college football. Just awesome. If you like rugby, it is just faster, harder hitting (yes, with pads, but when a guy 6ft 4 250 pounds that can run a 4.4 second 40 yard dash and bench press a small car is coming for you, you need all the padding you can get (and Tuna's "padding" will not save him)) without the kicking.

Basketball used to be my favorite, but I hate where the game is now, with it being a one-on-one game now, less passing and team play, just give it to the star and watch him go. It might sound like a lot, but a basketball score of 75-68 is not really that exciting, especially over 48 minutes.

Great stuff Ray.

I think oakland raiders are the coolest as their fans are the most dangerous :)

My favorite team is my home team, Dallas Cowboys. Been that way (although not always my home team) since I was 7. I also like the St. Louis Rams, but only because I had a few of their players on my fantasy team a few years ago and won a lot of money.

But I will watch any NFL game, much to the displeasure of the wife. Sundays at my house involve the big screen, beers and silence from the kids (or at least in my dreams).

Ray, did you guys get coverage of the FIBA olympic qualifying? the US dominated, but it was against very poor quality teams, argentina was the best, but they didn't send their best players.

looking good for once

Guys,

The only team that you have to support is Fenerbahçe.

Fenerbahçe is the best, F*ck the rest.

With Kind Regards,

Turkish team is awful this year, even in the Czeck Republic game that they won, players were all sucked. We have games with Slovenia, Italy and France.

They have to win at least two games for promotion to Quarter finals, and with this play they looks unlikely to make it.
