You should have told him to pass the ball. If you saw Howard you should have pimp slapped him and told him to work on his fu*** free throws!!

Cant believe the quarter is over a week from today.
Got a job mentoring/tutoring high school continuation kids. First day was today.
Some of them are willing to learn, the others are complete fools that i'm not even sure why they go to school if they don't care about it. Im 23 and I'm scared when some of these kids will be in charge of handling our government.

If people like Sarah Palin and binder full of women can do it, anyone can.

I was looking through some of the pics online, wasn't all that impressed. This definitely caught my eye though.

My first nba game was a clippers game back when they had olowakandi and played at the sports arena. Lol it was only cause my njb team played as the half time show. My first Lakers game I saw Kobe hit the game winner against bosh and the raptors. **** was perfect for my first kobe game.

I wish I had the same story to tell if Kobe made that last 3. Watching live I can understand why he takes those shots though, I didn't see a single shot where I thought "well he can't really make that!".

His body control, shooting form and balance is amazing.

He moves around like a drunkard in shoot-arounds though. :lol:

First game I went to was the Knicks and Pistons in MSG. At the time, I think it was 2005 or 2006, Knicks were the worst team in seeding and the Pistons were the best. Sheed and Rip got thrown out (Sheed's mom was there, yelling at the refs) Jamal Crawford hit the gamewinner. It was awesome. Also, it was the most cutthroat atmosphere I've ever encountered at a basketball game.

Been to tons of Raptors games. Was at that Raptors game in 2010 when Kobe missed the gamewinner in ACC.

Best player I've seen live is 2008 Kobe Bryant, he had moves predetermined like a grandmaster in chess.

My first NBA game saw Iverson drop 60 on a rookie Dwight.

I saw a Cleveland vs Mavs pre-season game, Lakers @ Philly (in 07 during Bynum's first real "surge") and Cleveland @ Philly.

Maybe alcohol is his secret?

Also what was the other half of your life?

My first game I went to I was like 5-6 years old and not really quite old enough to truly acknowledge the greatness of Magic Johnson. The Lakers beat the Mavs at the Great Western Forum.

Been to about 20-25 more Laker games games since then.

A couple of my most memorable games mainly during the Kobe/Shaq era gotta be :

-93' playoffs Lakers vs Suns .
James Worthy , Vlade Divac, Sedale Threat vs Charles Barkley, Kevin Johnson, Thunder Dan, Richard Dumas.

-98' Lakers vs Phoenix Suns
Shaq, Kobe, Eddie Jones, Van Exel vs Penny Hardaway , Jason Kidd, Cliff Robinson

-00' playoffs Lakers vs Kings Game 1

My parents have got to see the best games ever.

87' Finals win at GWF against the celtics game 6

2000 Finals win at Staples against Pacers game 6

2007 Christmas Day win over the Suns

2009 Christmas Day win over Celtics

2010 GAME 7 win over Celtics at Staples Center

An that's just like a portion of what dope games they attended

when was this? did Larry Hughes really look like a scrub in person?

@ Gek

I was blessed to see Iverson play as well.
Got to see him drop 40 something on the Clippers back in the early 2000's.
Dude is amazing , lightning quick, untouchable handles, floater jumpers on point and can jump out the building at only 6 feet tall

Who is the MVP of the thread?
