    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.

    yeah, it's a bit tragic. not having Foxtel, it's kinda hard to keep up to date with the NBA (that, and i refuse to pay $5 a week for that nba newspaper), but i remember going to Rebel Sports a while ago, and they had a sale on NBA gear, and i went to have a look to see if they had any Warriors stuff, and i looked at their singlet and was like "what the fuck is that??"

    i might have to go and dig out my old Sprewell singlet from '93
