... and the time is now!

"King James" LeBron James of Cleveland Cavaliers will take on "The big fundamental" Tim Duncan of San Antonio Spurs this Thursday in Game 1 of the 2007 NBA finals, which of these two will bring home the ring this year? Stay tuned at NBA.com!

Well, while my favoured team of the Windy City will play "do or die" with some motorheads on Tuesday night, it doesn't stop me from predicting Steve Nash the Canadian will help bringing the championship ring back to Arizona.

As a side note, Phoenix Suns' cowboy-style Flash-based intro definitely deserve a peek at, they made this fancy intro for their playoff series against the Spurs, one of the three NBA teams based in Texas State the cowboy territory, aka "Wild Wild West".

Chicago 102 : Detroit 87

Chicago almosts became perhaps the 1st team in NBA history to sweep opponent in 1st round playoffs and then swept away by another team in the 2nd round, glad that they didn't make it.

* Imaginative captions of course, I just made them up.

The Raptors have certainly done a good job this season, not only did they make it into the playoffs, they have also prolonged their season on Tuesday, May 1st with a narrow win over the Nets by 2 points. Although not comparable to the Bulls' 4-game victory to sweep away defending champion Miami Heat, the team has done enough to make those who lived in Toronto happy.

Play hard in game 6, the unofficial team Canada!

6-times NBA champion Chicago Bulls defeated last year's champion Miami Heat in a 4 game winning streak, they will play Detroit Pistons in the Eastern Conference semi-finals.

Bulls led Heat 2-0 in NBA Eastern Conference quarter-finals, go Bulls go !!

This evening Jennifer (we called her "notes 妹妹" back in our college days) came online wishing me a happy valentine, I thanked and told her I'll accept that and keep it aside for maybe next year. Anyway let's get back to our topic, Jen told me sweetly that Hil has bought two tickets to the Raptors' game on Valentine's day and she was so happy.

Clever Hil. No doubt this guy treats our "notes 妹妹" pretty nicely, but I do think he's also the lucky one in my eyes, in a sense that he has a GF to share this kind of men's interests, at least I never had one that does. Come on, if any of you happen to know another Chinese girl who gets delighted when the BF buys her 2 tickets to an NBA game on Valentine's day, let me know, she must be the 2nd of a rare species.

With 27 wins, 23 losses and a 5 consecutive wins, the Raptors now rank 1st in the Atlantic division of the Eastern conference. Go Raptors Go!

6 time NBA champion Chicago Bulls had a strong come back in the season opener on Halloween day, soared past defending champion Miami Heat by 108-66!!

Go Bulls Go!! Make Chicago once again the centre stage!



Ben Wallace the new Bull, dunked over Miami Heat's Shaquille O'Neal in yesterday's game.
