On the other hand, Durant looks pretty decent against the Queens tonight, huh? Speaking of the Queens, maybe it is just me, but why are they still holding on to Bibby? I think I am just one of those few people think Bibby is over-rated. He has a grand total of one great season and playoffs (2002)! Knowing they can get rid of Artest, they should trade him for some decent bigs, IMO.

I just watched it on tv. I wouldn't make that trip for a preseason game. I might grab some tickets and go to friday's game at the united center against dallas though. I can't believe bibby is still a king either man. That team hasn't been good since webber and peja left the building. the fact that bibby is still there taking up cap space for a team that will be lucky to win 30 games this year shows how bad managment is there. Bibby was rumored to be heading to the cavs last season in a trade. that would have possibly been the icing on the cake for the cavs. Bibby is just what they needed. A pg that can score and push the ball up the floor. Bibby can help big time, just not in sactown.

Right on, enjoy the game... I will be heading to Macau (40 miles west of Hong Kong by ferry) for the Magic vs. Cavs game on the 20th too. Hey, slightly off topic, do you have a dvd recorder? And could you record that game for me on dvd and mail it to me here in HK?

About Bibby, he is not a bad player, per se... he just cannot dominate like Nash, Kidd or even B.Davis.

Sorry man, I do not own a dvd recorder. If I did I would have no problem doing that for you. Maybe sometime soon I will update my dated technology.

That's cool, dude, I just thought if someone here would tape that game, it would be an interesting disk to keep, that's all.

Hey, you heard about Walker being benched again due to weight problems? Man, what a fat bastard. I want the Heat get healthy quickly, so when the rest of the league beat them up, they will have no excuses whatsoever.

Yi looks pretty good on the stats sheet tonight @ Jazz. 12 points 4 boards and 4 turnovers! The guy can play, I told ya!

Slightly off topic, have you got yourself a copy of the NBA 2K8 yet? I haven't, man... the deal is I "might" get a PS3 within the next few weeks, and I want to wait til I know one way or the other before I get that game. All I know is the PS3 version is going to ROCK!!! What other games are you into, dude? I am a GTA, Ace Combat, Resident Evil and Silent Hill guy.

as for yi- It's preseason. I really should stop being an asshole towards him and wait till the season starts to see what he really does.

I did get a copy of 2k8 for ps2. I love it. 30 buck and the best nba game ever. I refuse to get a ps3 till the price goes down. It's a joke. I hope you get a good deal if you do indeed get one. Plus 2k8 is double the price for ps3. Granted the graphics and features are enhanced. I don't think it is worth double the price though. If you don't get a ps3 I strongly suggest you get a copy for ps2. It is trully a great game. I dig gta too. I mostly stick with 2k8. I don't have much time for videogames with school, work, friends, ladies, and guitar at the top of my list of priorities.

It's cool, dude, I don't think you are being too hard on him. Yeah, we will see how he does once the season starts. I hope he does well.

Yeah, if things work out right, my friend in Phoenix is going to bring me a PS3 from the US by the end of this month. All PS3 consoles sold in Hong "Commies Infested" Kong are all Asian version, and they cannot read any old PSOne, PS2 games and dvd movies from the US. (another BS by SONY) And I have a TON of those... it only makes sense for me to bring one in all the way from the US. We will see. But yeah, I am getting the game no matter what, either for the PS2 or the PS3. So you are still in college? What do you study, man?

[GH0STrider]

That sucks about the asian version of ps3. Wow. Sony really screwed you guys. I'm in my last year of college. I'm an english major and an anthropology minor.

No doubt. Luckily for me, my friend's gf is bringing me a PS3 all the way from Phoenix later this month. I will keep you updated on my new toy IF or WHEN I have it.

Ok, sorry for my noob question, but what exactly is Anthropology? What do you study? Humans?

[GH0STrider]

Anthropology- the science that deals with the origins, physical and cultural development, biological characteristics, and social customs and beliefs of humankind.

[Azyiu]

^ Thanks for the explaination, Mr. Blackcock. So Anthropology is like Biology but only it studies humankinds specifically, right? It sounds cool and tough to me... I majored in Communications (TV) and minored in Music when I was in college years ago. Man, if I knew what I know, I would have studied something else for my major. The TV business just does NOT pay very well.


EDIT: So Mr. Blackcock or anyone, which of the following recent playoffs games do you consider the best, the most exciting?

- 2005 First Round, Game 4, Suns @ Lakers
- 2007 First Round, Game 4, Mavs @ Warriors
- 2007 Second Round, Game 2 or 4, Warriors vs. Jazz
