Love and Basketball

i love basketball. i love it so much that if it were a person, i would marry it. high school, college (go UNC!), or NBA, it doesn't matter, it's all good. the three-pointers, the dunks, the passes. amazing. i'm actually surprised i haven't blogged about this topic before.

i enjoy all sports, don't get me wrong, but basketball is my clear-cut favorite. let me tell you why. basketball has both the team and individual aspect. a good team can win, but also a team with a superstar who can control the game by himself can also win. it's extremely tough for a quarterback to win by himself given he depends on his wide receivers or offensive line to block for him. a pitcher can control the defense, but not the offense. also, two words: michael jordan. i could go on forever about that guy, but that's boring.

march madness... NBA playoffs in april... are you kidding me? screw wedding season and christmas, i'll take this every time. i actually aspired to be in the NBA... i had these dreams and visions of being the next jordan... well, asian jordan. but then i realized something very important. i am a short/slim mother f'er. quick side note: my dad just said over the phone, "how is the meat?" really dad? i would say that's what she said, but... yeah... not sure he would get that one. now where was i? oh yes, my future as an NBA star. i really was crushed when i realized that i wasn't going to cut it. it took a total of a day to get over it.

well, back to the game. hope you enjoyed reading. thanks!
