I Love This Game.

Who remembers that slogan? Well, if you don't, it's for the NBA.

This season I've actually been concerned with the playoffs, and not just the finals. It's kind of weird, I'm not sure why I have this sudden interest in it. Katherine keeps pointing it out likes it's something abnormal.

I remember back when I was a kid I used to be so into basketball, not just the NBA, but NCAA and all that. Perhaps that's why I will always cheer for Duke, even though I have no afiliation with them. I mean, besides being an incredible program headed by an incredible coach, I remember watching them back when Grant Hill, Christian Laetnner & Bobby Hurley were all of the team. Funny how none of them made it big in the NBA. Poor Grant Hill.

But yeah, this seasons NBA playoffs has been quite exciting. A lot of game sevens and a lot of close games. But even all this, it pales in comparison to when Jordan was playing. It was just so much more fun to watch him play and dominate.

In other unrelated notes, Katherine got me a PSP. Isn't she a sweetie?

because we're related...i'm going to let your comment about Duke go. But know that i have more hatred for that sorry excuse of a basketball school then all others combined. Does the success breed contempt? i don't know, but i feel like they get all the media hype which is unfair. What schools have the most active NBA players?arizona and kentucky.... but we never hear about them. Okay this is becoming a rant so i'll stop.

Btw, these playoffs are really, really intense, too bad my suns lost. But i have to admit, the mavs are a better team. But i still prefer the heat.
