Yea sure as long as you give me credit. Thanks Yea, I noticed. It's kind of sad how no one really cares about graphics here.

My first sig in over half a year. Pretty rusty though. C+C. Thx http://i244.photobucket.com/albums/gg11/aLmightydesigns/Signatures/jennings2.png

Year You Became a Fan: 95-96 Season Why You Became a Fan: Started watching them more cause my TV Network started getting more coverage of them. Favorite Lakers Player, All-Time: Kobe Bryant, Glen Rice, Nick Van Exel Favorite Lakers Coach, All-Time: Phil Jackson Favorite Lakers Moment: Kobe Bryant's 81 points. Playoff series vs Phoenix Amount of Lakers Games Attended: Zero

Year You Became a Fan: The beginning season. 1995-96 Why You Became a Fan: Finally Canada gets two NBA franchises back in 95-96. Started following the Raptors more since the drafting of Vince Carter and eventually the departure of the Vancouver Grizzlies made me follow the Raptors completely. Favorite Raptors Player, All-Time: 98-02 Vince Carter, Alvin Williams, Mo Peterson, Keon Clark Favorite Raptors Coach, All-Time: Sam Mitchell Favorite Raptors Moment: Vince Carter Vs Allen Iverson in the playoffs. Vince Carter + Tracy McGrady in the slam dunk contest. Amount of Raptors Games Attended: Zero, I live in Vancouver so it's pretty difficult to attend a basketball game.

Another great performance by Carey Price. Montreal probably wouldn't have won the two games if it wasn't for Price.

I'm watching the Leafs and Caps. It's not even close and the Caps are so entertaining to watch.

I just joined if thats ok.

yea its stupid. im pretty choked altho im getting this game either way.

I would say he is at his peak right now and with one of the most talented support cast ever, he should be able to hold back a little.

I think they were thinking team China colorway.

http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slug=tsn-thebigbynumkareembre&prov=tsn&type=lgns Bynum IS dropping Kareem btw.

I think Bynum can still learn a lot in terms of being consistent with stats or health. Kareem probably has a handful of tricks to teach him. Because a lot of times when Bynum isn't having a good night offensively, the rest of his game seems to lag behind also. He needs to learn that even though his offense isn't clicking, he can impact the game other ways in terms of rebounding, shot blocking, or simply setting screens for teammates. I agree that his two injuries were unfortunate but I think with Kareem mentoring him, at least there is someone to push him in terms of workout, staying fit, eating right and eventually being able to recover quicker. I think Bynum will regret this decision.

I agree that the Bucks seem to be going nowhere. OUT: Jefferson, Villanueva, Sessions, Amir Johnson IN: Jennings, Delfino, Warrick, Kurt Thomas Those are their main headlines this offseason. I'm not too sure what they'll be playing for this season but seems like the franchise might be looking towards the 2010 off season in hopes to land a Superstar on their team. Jennings will probably have his ups and downs this season while I don't see Redd playing all 82 games once again. Delfino and Warrick will probably be decent contributors but they lack that franchise player they can build their team around. They should be competitive but I don't see them winning a lot of games, especially with the much improved Eastern Conference.

I'm not a Yao fan and I'm far from a Rockets fan but I don't call out the team without backing up my claim. But back on the topic. I think Bosh could benefit from this. The past couple of seasons he's been settling for the outside jumper more than he should, even when a slower defender is on him. I see him getting to the line more this season.

Lack of respect in my opinion. Bynum has yet to prove he can be a consistent player both statistically and physically. Immature decision by him and I'm surprised the Lakers organization let that go through.

I can probably offer some help if you need it since I've ran forums and sites before. Let me know.

Richmond!

hahahhaha good stuff.

I like your avatar.

Toskala isn't playing that great. Seems like the same shaky goalie from last season. It's just the Maple Leafs are beating the Canadiens to the puck. Price is playing great though.

Vancouver please! We need a franchise back in the city. Basketball popularity has risen a lot since the departure of the Grizzlies. But I doubt David Stern would want a team to move to Canada.

Danny Granger Last Season: 25.8 PPG, 5.1 RPG, 2.7 APG, 1.0 SPG, 1.5 BPG Kevin Durant Last Season: 25.3 PPG, 6.5 RPG, 2.8 APG, 1.3 SPG, 0.7 BPG My pick will be Kevin Durant strictly on the fact that Durant is younger. Durant just turned 21 and is Granger is 26. They both play similar ball other than the fact that Granger is a better defender, but I believe Durant can easily become a better defender with another season or so under his belt.

Not a huge deal but I guess players won't be distracted or tempted to use twitter and concentrate more on the game. Negative thing is for the fans. Kinda sets up another barrier between the players and the fans.

I agree with you. Basillie just wants to bring a team back to Canada and he doesn't care how much the price tag will be. Problem is Gary Bettman has to answer to Maple Leafs Sports Entertainment executives if a team does go to Hamilton. I believe they have the right to decline a team to come into "their area".
