I bet u all know I am doing a wizards dynasty but something great happened!
yesterday, April 5th, I saw the Wizards play in D.C. against the Celtics. MY FIRST NBA GAME. E V E R! It was great. I like the Wizards a lot ever since I moved to Qunatico Marine Base, VA. after living in Japan for the last three years, but had no Wizards gear to wear so I wore my reebok Paul Pierce Green jersey with a green nba wristband and white nba wrist band.
I had good seats and sat close to the Cheerleaders. The Wzards lost but they hung in all game long. It was a great game. Arenas had 43 points and Jamison had 30. Pierce had 25 points.
I spent like $120 on gear including a reebok swingman Gilbert Arenas away jersey that cost $70 alone. My grandpa, luckily, payed for food.
Walked inside the arena, there was cheeper reebok jerseys for $45 at the team's store. Now I didn't know there were tema stores as I was looking at the MCI Cneter's official web site. I was pissed but oh well. I had the best time at the game.
Also it was funny to hear the fans(even wizards fans) boo when Kwame Brown missed shots or just didn't play hard. People around me were like "come on Kwame!"
Check this out from yahoo.com sports
"Reserve Kwame Brown heard a chorus of boos during a sequence in which he missed two free throws, got called for defensive 3 seconds and fumbled a sure layup out of bounds. "
I felt sorry for him. Playing at home and getting booed.
Now i have a reason to trade him in my dynasty.

I've been to like 15 NBA games, including three at opposing arenas - Oakland Arena (Warriors), Continental Airlines Arena (Nets), and Madison Square Garden (Knicks). Every Sixers game I have ever been to has been a win, so yeah.

I've only been to one C's game, but Pierce hit a buzzer beater so I got a pretty cool expirience.

Granted Philly makes the playoffs, I get to see them get pounded by Miami or Detroit in person!

Every Sixers game I have ever been to has been a win, so yeah. I'm 4-1 for the teams I root for at games. August 1999-Chicago White Sox Doubleheader vs Texas Rangers, won both games (2-0) May 2003-Joliet Jackhammers Baseball Game, won (3-0) May 2003-Chicago Cubs Baseball Game, won (4-0) May 2004-Joliet Jachkammers Baseball game, lost (4-1) So I'm doing good! BTW, when I rooted for the Sawks, it's because I hadn't developed into a true baseball fan yet. I like both Cubs and White Sox. Here's the order of baseball teams I liked when I was young... Cubs and Sawks Atlanta Braves (Grandparents lived in Georgia, before re-moving back to Illinois) New York Yankees (Ugh...I know) White Sox then finally... CUBBIES! (Ever since beginning of 2003 season when I truly became interested in watching the games more) |

I have been to about 15-20 Magic games this year since my mom works wit a season ticked holder he gives her tickets and all of the other co-workers when he cant go. He has really good seats to! There right behind the floor seats they cost $99.00 a pice WITH the season ticket holder disscount.
Alex,(notice not in bold) I saw the Magic and the Sixers and we won, it was a very good game. A lot of the fans cheered for Iverson even some Magic fans. A little off topic here. But I think the Magic can still make the playoffs as were only 1 1/2 games back from you guys!

Haha...nope. You can make the playoffs once we knock off Cleveland, but nothing more than an 8th seed. Philly's going to lock up #7 or #6, I can feel it.
And by the way, everyone cheers for Iverson. He's the single most loved visitor in the league.

No, if he remembers what team he plays for, then he didn't have a right. Philly sookz.

When you win by 6 after being up by 26, you shouldn't be happy.
