City Slickers Continue...
This is my Basketball team that I played on the last year and a half. This season I decided not to play to take a break. I'll be spending time in Florida and getting some home projects together in preparations for baby Jouvert. Last night they played the first game of the season and got a win! I'm happy for them and will try to check out a game or two this season. Good Luck guys keep up the good work!!

Shaq on his Back
I miss this time of year in the USA. The NBA finals have been going on and they have been really exciting. The Clippers were in it and even were having people talking about a possible LA vs LA battle. You had Clevland in there fairy tale underdogs hoping to surprise the world and now you have an epic Battle that seemed just yester day that was going to be a lopsided show down and an easy win for the Miami Heat with Shaq and Co. They looked invincible. And now... It seems that The Detroit Pistons are on there way to pulling off what seems to have become they're specialty... winning elimination games. I will try Friday night at 2am Vienna time to go and see the game live on tv somewhere or maybe on tv. Here is a link to an article i read this morning about last nights game. --->click here<---

Basketballturnier Geblergasse and the NBA Finals
While the playoffs are going on in the USA I have my own substitute for that. Because of the time difference I usually don't catch many sports that I used to watch. Football and Basketball mostly. So this Saturday I was telling a teammate of mine, Max that LA was going to have two teams in the conference finals. I hadn't looked in a few days to see that Pheonix had forced a game 7. So anyway this Saturday I had been invited to play with only a few of my teammates from my wednesday basketball group. There was an alumni basketball tournament. So it was a lot of fun and because most of my team was absent we didnt do so well but considering we were only four and missing our strongest players we managed to win 2 games and lose 2. I always have fun just playing anyway. I was proud on how we played. So here are just a few photos from that day. I will try to put a link on my other webpage with the complete set of photos in a few days. Although there were a couple of lopsided matches overall there was some good ball playing. It was really nice to see this.
"I love this game ! "
Back to the NBA finals, I'm glad to see that Koby isn't anything but a big mouth and that Shak is going on to the next round with his new team. Although I will be routing for the Nets, I like Detroit because of Rasheed Wallace. They have a strong team. One of my favorites of all time though plays with Pheonix, Sam Cassel. They seem like this might be there year. We shall see how it unfolds. Its weird for me to read about all the sports and not see a game often.
