holy ****
I remember staying up to watch the NBA Draft when I was in Amsterdam and waking up super early to catch the 2nd half of a few game during the Finals last year and thought I was doing it, but damn I could imagine having to do that on the regular.
Thats some dedication for sure
First finals I vaguely remember are 1993 , my man Sir charles getting toasted by that dude with the 23 ... >:
Next up Hakeem was dominating my man Shaq....
Cried like a baby when the Magic lost...
Then mj second three peat , and after that National TV stopped broadcasting NBA games...
Was at a lousy online status as a country (7 kb / s for the fast lines) so no streaming....
Video tapes , and reading was all it was left for the live thing , got any dvds I could down the way...
Slam magazines , only sold in a newsstand 15 miles from my house , in Athens...
Some european magazines with few articles on NBA ...
Internet blew up around Shaq ' s Heat championship , So my connection went HAM....
33 now , and pretty much love watching the sport.
Euroleague , Greek championship , Youth championships from up close , NBA ....
(Playing too when my knees and time allow it , like once a week )
Cant really front.
I LOVE THIS GAME.
