I missed the biggest b'ball discussion that ever happened in this thread, bummer. Anywho, yeah, Nelson has stepped up big time these past 2 games and just at the right time. I hope the Magic do go through, I dont like the Celtics, however it would be a shame not to see Rondo in the Finals.

And tonight we have the 5th game of the Lakers v Suns series, should be interesting to see who will do the business...

It won't be at 1, probably 3 am or so as it's at Lakers arena. Well you've only really seen 4 teams in action, theres 20+ more teams you've yet to see. It's a shame that you didnt really see the Cav's in action, LeBron James is just incredible to watch.

I use to like the Lakers alot just because of Kobe, but as I've got into it more, I've grown to like the Oklahoma Thunder, Chicago Bulls and Charlotte Bobcats. Primarily a bobcats fan simply for Gerald Wallace, the man is some mad dunker.

I recommend once again, renting 2k10 out, just to get familiar with teams and players.

Well Basketball was one sport i just couldnt bare to play.
Although, watching it has kinda made me more interested in the game. On the otherhand i have nowhere to put a hoop.

I love putting random words into sentences too.

Watching the Suns v Lakers game now, had it recorded. Also see Jack Nicholsen in the audience looking as mad as ever. This also the first time i get to watch the great Bryant.

Good Mark, thats I what I like to hear. Magic v Celtics is on tonight, and at the respectable time at 1:30. Yeah, Jack has court side season tickets, you really do see him go insane at times.

Man, you will be in awe of Kobe's all-round ability, the man can do everything. He's just the perfect player and can do amazing things and you'll notice this when he is double teamed.

Thanks for telling me sean, i never knew about that game. Gonna record it, watch it tomorrow. Gonna watch TNA now.

Bryant does look impressive indeed, he plays really low to the ground or something. Gonna watch the second half (or rather 2 1/4's) of this game in the morning, get more of a look at him.

Watching the Magics v Celtics game now, only a few minutes to go. Fantastic game, when Robinson came off the bench for Rondo he really lit things up.
Gonna watch the rest of the Lakers game after this.

Just after my first game, i lost with ease. I have to get used to the controls first, nothing to complicated though. The commentaries and the noise of the crowd is very good, almost awesome. And 2k typical there are plenty of statistics, numbers etc, which is great for me as stats-freak. The game itself is spot on just as it should be. If you are a basketball fan you can easiely fall in love with it. But still just played one single game. Easiely a 8.5 so far maybe even more.
