Fact or Fiction 

Post#1 » by mhectorgato » Fri May 9, 2008 3:51 pm

With the an extra day off between games and not much news, something that will perhaps fill the time in an enjoyable manner.

Rules:
1) Respond only to the last F or F statement
2) Your response at a minimum should include a Fact or Fiction response and a statement of your own.

An explanation of your response would be appreciated

Example:
Post 1: F or F - Arroyo will resigned by the Magic in the off-season.

Post 2: Fiction - can find other 3rd string PGs for cheaper.
F or F - JVG jump on the bandwagon soon

Post 3: Fiction - he hates that his brother is doing well.
F or F - Reggie Miller will be banned from future broadcasts.

Here's the first statement open for responses:

F or F - This series will come down to a game 7

Fiction- teaching Doolitsu would only allow others to know how to combat him more effectively.

FoF- Jameer's play in the playoffs forces management to accept him as the pg of the future, and they go after a defensive 2 to play next to him in the offseason.
