Hehe I've been. Feria right. It's also in August, checks out.


I hope they vlog in the middle of Feria that’d be cool.

Open gym should document it all.
There goes my hero. Watch him as he goes.

I'm having some fun thinking about the fans, and how amped up they'll be.

You're going to see a lot of W rizz fans wearing Ibaka and Gasol jerseys. It'll be awesome to see :).

Image

Omg Jorge Garbajosa is actually a president of the Spanish Basketball Federation and FIBA Europe! He will HAVE to be there.

Image

And of course this wonderful man will be there... or else I'm boycotting this organization.

Image

Can anyone think of any other prolific Spaniards who donned the Raptors uniform?

Stayed in Malaga for four days on my honeymoon, if they are staying in the old city centre they have very loud street cleaners every morning from about 4-6 am.

Nice city to visit, but not a ton of places to go out like in Madrid, more of a pure beach town with nice fashion and restaurants. Historical stuff is outside the city.

Great for training camp then. They can spend lots of time together on and off the court.

This feels like one large team building exercise. I love it. They continue to try to build the culture which I’m a big fan of. The one caveat is…does that mean the Raptors won’t be at Rico Hines this summer???
not strong, only aggresive cuz the power ain't directed/ that's why, we are subjected to the will of the oppressive

Maybe we can give him a blindfold. That HAS to improve his shooting percentage.

I was disappointed when I was in Malaga with my GF, not a beauty of a City. Expected more. There are better places in Andalusia.

Yeah. I think this is technically pre-pre-season so they can’t force the players to show up. Likely optional.

Sounds to me you are really "dogging" Malaga. I guess you could be considered "un chien Andalusia".

Ah yeah, I imagine with the vibes of the team, I'd be shocked if he didn't show up. Everyone seems to get along well enough.

Was last there in 1984. Seems like a long time ago now.

I'll be there.

Looking forward to Serge at Real... I think I'll wear a giant scarf courtside.
