this has been the greatest year for nba since jordans retirement from the bulls (the final one). lakers and celtics, the two most legendary franchises in basketball history, are poised to go far into the playoffs. great miz of amazing young talent, lebron, chris paul, dwight howard, amare, and veterans who just seem to get better and better, kobe, garnett, dirk, nash, etc... i love basketball, my favorite team sport for sure, somethin about it, its just very aesthetically pleasing in many ways, and its great that pro ball is finally mattering again. also, this could be the first celtics championship im old enough to witness!
on bball, pics for ncaa tourney title?

I think the Celtics will represent the East and prob. beat the Spurs in the Finals. I love that commercial they have of KG getting traded to Boston with that "I remember finding out about you...." song. KG is the man, loves the game, plays with passion, and deserves a championship.
I'm taking Kansas and their balance/depth to beat a really good and athletic Memphis team tomorrow night.

yeah, this season has kind of gotten me back into the NBA... i was down on it for a few years... but I was excited coming into this season, and it didn't disappoint... proud of my Hawks team, finally... Now if they can get Larry Brown to coach them, then they could really do something... J-Smoov, Marvin, and Horford are only going to get better. ... and yes, Chris Paul is the best player in the NBA, with LeBron the only one close imo... Kobe=over-rated... Dwight is not human.
Im going with Memphis for tonight... I denied them in my brackets, and I paid for it... Rose is a stud

haha, Memphis does suck at free throws... which is why i thought they would've lost in the 16 or so.... overall an entertaining game

I'd probably be pegged as a Celtics bandwagon jumper, but I am just a loyal Garnett fan.
