Yeah old school baby! Back in the day NBA went hand in hand with R&B and hip hop... but then my music tastes change the my favourite players retired so I stopped watching. It wasn't til we got ESPN with Foxtel that I started watching again, just in time to get on the Spurs Championship bandwagon. We don't have cable anymore but I get my sister's bf to tape the games for me. I'm so happy that NBA season is in full flight again.

aahh, yes, i remember those days! Back in the days when it was just players swapping teams, rather than teams swapping cities.

i used to follow it in high school, around the same era. unfortunately, i'm a Golden State fan. i used to have a couple of Hardaway and Sprewell posters on my bedroom walls.

Golden State eh? I still can't get over the "new" Golden State uniforms. They look like superheroes or something.

Back in the day I was a hardcore Lakers fan. And the Hornets. But the Lakers turned into my most despised team. Last year was SO painful when the Lakers beat the Spurs in the semi-finals. I can't stand Kobe Bryant (and their so called LA Dream Team. ergh). It was so satisfying when the Pistons kicked their arses.
