[N4U|Redux]

this guy n4u is being a complete dick. if you don't like the thread why are you posting in it??

WTF? I'm being a dick how?

The first name thing, I guess I was blind when I made my statement. Though, I did make it a conditional statement on purpose - in case I missed people omitting their first name I noted that I didn't see anyone else but the one guy (i.e. me) omitting their first name.

Chill man.

Who are some of you all-time fav NBA players? MJ, Bird, Johnson, Penny, T-Mac.
Fav Magic moment/game? The Nick Anderson steal, reaching the NBA Finals, the Turk to Howard alley oop game winner, and all those crazy game winning shots Hedo has hit the past couple years, the guys pure clutch. Also making it past the 1st round last year, that was a huge step forward into our bright future.
Which magic player (current or former) hmm...would have to say Hedo's because I'm not all athletic but I'm always attacking the basket hard and creating shots for my teammates, plus I got the 3 pt shot.
Explain your username? Don't think I need to, lol.

Most hated player in the NBA? Shaq, Grant Hill, Kevin Garnett.
Hobbies? Basketball could pretty much sum up my life. When I'm not watching or playing basketball, I enjoy playing XBOX 360 (nba 2k9 especially lol), music, goin to the movies, and just chillin with family and friends
