now this is interesting. but before I get to more basketball stuff, I got my 1.5k scholarship!! yay. right and err today went to watch transformers with Limzy, boyboy, juice and matthaeus.

DRAFT DAY:
I personally like Durant more than Oden, but I think that's because Durant is simply insane. I guess Oden will probably end up the next JO or something but yeah I was hoping Durant would be first. Anyway, for those who don't know,

(In order of Picks)
Portland: Greg Oden
Seattle: Kevin Durant
Memphis: Mike Conley Jr
Boston: Jeff Green (traded to Seattle)
Atlanta: Al Horford
Milwaukee: Yi Jian Lian
Minnesota: Corey Brewer
Charlotte: Brandon Wright (traded to golden state)
Chicago: Joakim Noah
Sacramento: Spencer Hawes
Atlanta: Acie Law
Philadelphia: Thaddeus Young
New Orleans: Julian Wright
LA clippers: Al Thornton

And the scariest news (IMO), the Boston Seattle trade. Because now Boston is going from one of the worst teams this season to Paul Pierce AND RAY ALLEN. My gosh. But well it works both ways cos Seattle is getting alot in return and Durant is good so I'm gonna be scared of these two teams this season. The only compensation is that Ray ray and Paul play SG. I think. So I suppose the SF position is gonna be a bit undersized (allowing ron ron to pwn, if the kings keep him). Secondly, my fav team's draft. Spencer Hawes. Now the general consensus or opinion is that the Kings made a VERY DISAPPOINTING pick. Because Hawes, a 7 footer, is a superb low post scorer and offensive threat. BUT his rebounding and shot blocking are rather abysmal. Which hence has kings fans cussing due to the Kings need for: Rebounding, Defense. So apparently Hawes is gonna be a brad miller type of player. But since I'm not that much of a supporter (eg I don't buy season tickets, not living in the US), my passion for simply winning is not that great and I wouldn't mind not having trades (other than for Kenny Thomas). So naturally I'm ok with Hawes seeing as he was the best center at the #10 pick.

And the Spurs take the crown. Parker won finals MVP which I'm happy about. Err ... I don't know if it's the spurs defence, or a mix of both but honestly Wade outshone James last year. But I'm looking forward to lebron next season cos I think he'll be fueled to own.

Anyway I will start with yesterday's game 3 of the nba finals. Definitely Cleveland should have won this game, or at least sent it into overtime. Because SA was playing horribly, and cleveland got millions of open 3s that they missed. Plus the foul on James on the last play. I DO NOT like Bruce Bowen. Sure he's a good defender but offensively I think he's useless and he gets away with a lot of fouls. Artest would kick his ass.

Sunday: Went to church at 730, then went out for lunch and played pool.
Monday: ? I don't think I did anything. Other than game 2 of the finals.
Tuesday: Limzy and TKK came over in the morning. So first time hearing TKK sing. Err... well at least we had a small practice because if we missed this and when we have the full band it would be rather bad. Planning to play have a nice day for auditions me thinks unless cleon ... nvm about cleon. Then went to plaza with Limzy, watched oceans 13, then went meridien, taught limzy how to play pool... then went home.

My modem died on Thursday... so I was without internet till yesterday (thanks to andrew who helped me settle my modem issues). Anyway, I last blogged when Cleveland beat Detroit to even the series at 2-2. And now cleveland is going to the finals! So yup non NBA people should skip this part. Alright on first glance obviously the Spurs are gonna win since well.. they're the spurs. So I think it goes like this.

SPURS:
C Oberto/Elson
PF Duncan/Horry
SF Bowen/Barry
SG Finley/ Ginobili
PG Parker/ Vaughn

CAVS:
C Ilgauskas/ Varejao
PF Gooden/ Marshall
SF James/ Pavlovic
SG Hughes/ Jones
PG Gibson/ Snow/ Brown

Yup I think that will basically be the rotations used, some may not be used even. So ok I feel the spurs offence is run mainly through duncan and parker, and for the second unit it's ginobili. Cleveland's offence will be challenged greatly. Hughes isn't playing well, and Gooden won't be able to do nuts against Duncan. Bowen, the league's "best defender" (I still support Artest over Bowen) is on James. Varejao is more or less around the same level as Oberto offensively. For cleveland to win, James has to pull a Deron williams on Bowen, meaning he still scores 30+ a game. Parker isn't that good a defender, so if Gibson can hit 3s consistently then the starting unit can still match up with the spurs. On the bench however, Cleveland basically depends on Pavlovic. I think it may be interesting to start pav at SG, then hughes can come off the bench against Ginobili. But all in all... it's up to James. ok non basketball people start reading here.

On thursday, I went to Jln Kayu for prata but ... apparently ate at the wrong place due to my family's "knowledge" of singaporean food. Then we went to walk around some place in seletar where all the road names are like of places in UK. So that was interesting. Then in the afternoon went to cleon's house and well lets just say I regret joining BOB because at this rate we might as well play the teletubbies theme song and get the same result.

Friday. I don't think I did very much. oh I went to play ball and yeah full court.
Saturday, not much not much, had tuition, then Grandma's birthday at Regents hotel where I got stuffed.
Sunday, Church, Played ball with thong in the afternoon, went to Serene for dinner.
Monday, did nothing other than cleaning my room and GETTING INTERNET
Today... I played KH just now but my ps2 hanged again. I think the fan's spoilt or it was badly modded or I dunno I'm not a ps2 expert. Anyway my com and ps2 keep hanging. So that sucks.

Hmm I think I want a girlfriend. Or rather, a girl who is there to talk to me and for me to talk to. I mean no offence but right now I've only got Thong, who is real good, but you know the things guys and girls talk about are different. Well in my case they may actually be the same but oh well who doesn't want a try at variety. And by talking I don't mean just problems, but you know just normal friend talk, having fun and stuff. In the day I've been getting my share of fun with outings with my classmates and stuff, but I have a feeling that's not gonna continue once term starts, and we dont exactly meet up much in the holidays. Hence, I want someone who. Well actually the whole classmates thing is irrelevant just that I'm saying its not fun in going out that I want, it's like. Relationship fun. Friendship fun. My gosh in other words I just want a girl best friend to complement thong. Right.
