Allstar Game on valentines day

If you have love for the game, than you should watch the All Star Game on valentines day And it’s even coming back to germany, where you can watch it live on ZDF (night from sunday to monday).

The teams are set now. You can definetely argue about the reserves, especially about Al Jefferson been not called as a reserve or Rashard Lewis over Turkoglu… anyway here are the chosen starting 5:

Is this for real?

Looks like all these players have no sense for humour, or are they just overwhelmed by the stupidity of Ali G. Another explanation could be, that their reactions are somehow planned… take a look:

Don’t forget the Hype!

How could I forget this one. Love it.

Favourite Jordan TV Ad

That’s one of my favorite Air Jordan TV Ads. Nowadays it reminds me of the Lord of the Rings soundtrack. „Dunk it, Sauron!“

ESPN – They got the LOOK!

ESPN started a new webdesign a few days ago. It has been a long time since they renewed something, so it was just a matter of time after yahoosports and nba (relvant for me) did it.

The new face is fine. Some transparencies, a little bit of glossy structures, web2.0-typical-fonts and sizes, a clear structure and vids right in the middle of everything (before they were located at the left side).

Shaq-Breakdance-Machine

Just found a new vid of Shaq performing some breakdance. He is definetely an entertainer:

Steve Francis still playin’

Today I realized by accident, that Steve „the franchise“ Francis is still playing in the NBA. I mean, that he is somewhere under contract isn’t so surprising, but that he gets some minutes is really fun. Imagine that: Right now he is making 5.5 Pts, 3 Ass, 2.3 Rbs and nearly 1 Steal this season. Playing in 10 games for about 20 Minutes each. And he even started in 3 games.

Compared to his prime-time numbers from the 01-02 Season in Houston where he made: 21.6 Pts, 6.4 Ass, 7 Rbs and 1.2 Steals. Playing 41.1 Minutes per game.

ASW2009: My Picks

Although the allstar weekend will take place next year in february, I did my voting today on nba.com. After I received the picks of a colleague. Just to let you know, I made my vote on how enjoyable these guys are on and off the court. And there have to a matchup between Kobe and Lebron. Further, VC is still the man for the dunkings (or do I live in the past), KG has to be on a team, Dirk Diggler, No Allstar-Game without Shaq as long as he is in any way on the court and Superman as the next Shaq (what an incident that he plays for Orlando too, lets see, if they can lure him too to LA one day)…

If you wanna vote… just klick me.

NBA League Pass

Irgendwie bin ich erst recht spät darauf gestoßen, aber man kann sich (nun) NBA Spiele übers Netz anschauen. Zum einen live und zum anderen sogar 1-2 Tage zurückliegende Spiele. Die Übertragungsqualität sowie das Preisgefüge sind völlig in Ordnung.

Es gibt drei Pakete:

Zahlungsarten: Kreditkarte oder Paypal.

HFC nach 100 Spielen

Bei unserer HFC Fantasy League bin ich noch ein wenig abgeschlagen. Es sind nun ca. 100 von 800 Spielen durch. Die vor mir in der Gesamttabelle haben glücklicherweise schon ein paar Spiele mehr auf dem Buckel… naja, ich hoffe ja noch dass Monta Ellis bald wieder spielt (Mitte Dezember), dass Caron Butler noch statwise explodiert und auch Kaman eventuell noch getraded wird und im neuen Team (ohne Camby) wieder Monsterstats produziert.
