Give Thanks

i'm thankful that the NBA put together another great set of match ups to watch on Christmas day :) Heat vs. Knicks - 12:00 EST Celtics vs. Magic - 2:30 EST Cavs vs. Lakers - 5:00 EST Clippers vs. Suns - 8:00 EST Nuggets vs Trail Blazers - 10:30 EST

my perdictions.. 1) D wade goes off for 40+ at MSG Heat win by 18 over knicks 2) KG got Boston on his back.. Celtics win by 10 over Orlando 3) Broken finger and all Kobe & the Lakers win by 5 over the Lebron & the Cavs 4) Still no sign of Blake Griffin + Barbosa's back Suns win by 12 over Clippers 5) if B.Roy's still out with that shoulder injury this could get ugly for Portland.. one things for sure Melo will get his (with or without Chauncey) .. Nuggets win by 12 over Trail Blazers

andy, happy holidays basketball fans.

Either you're slingin' crack, rock or you got a wicked jump shot

over the past few weeks I've been spending the majority of my afternoons working on my game- we've finally got some decent weather so it's nice to get out an put in some serious work - whenever i get the opportunity i like to get photo's of my jumper so i can try an fix any kinks or bad habits i got going on. (also allows me to check on my form an shot consistency) lately im having problems getting lift from my legs when I get tired -basically as the workout continues and i become tired im not jumping as high... this can definitely be attributed to my lack of conditioning - ... it's a work in progress.. anyway here's a few shots* (pun intended) from my most recent outdoor work out

andy, im always looking for good runs - if you know of any hit me up lemme know...

Hi Haters

andy,we are all witnesses

MVP

im sure by now a lot of people have seen the new Nike basketball campaign featuring the two best in the game...check out the latest commercial from the "Most Valuable Puppets" campaign by Nike basketball... huge fan of this one (click here to check out the rest of this campaign) it's not the fist time Nike basketball used puppets in a campaign.. remember this? Or this??? Andy, chris rock is the voice of lil penny... wouldn't it have been dope if the lebrons voice over was done by dave chappelle?

check out this Spike Lee documentary on Kobe Bryant... it's a long documentary but you get to see the game through Kobe's Eyes..

it's called "Kobe Doin' Work..." another well put together project from the SpikeLee camp - andy, such a beautiful game..

Analysis Report: Why + How Pro Athlete's go broke

“By the time they have been retired for two years, 78% of former NFL players have gone bankrupt or are under financial stress. Within five years of retirement, an estimated 60% of former NBA players are broke” if you got the time check this out .. quite the interesting report - click here andy

its' that time of year again...

As most of you know.. im a sucker for a good marketing campaign and the NBA never disappoints - check out their latest trailer for the NBA 2009 Playoffs.. I admit i wasn't fan of this kanye track - shit was wack to me.. (but as i keep on watching this video, i felt a slight change of heart coming along - i still hate auto tune but im upgrading this track from "turn that shit off" to "let that ride for a minute") this track+ video is a perfect compliment to the NBA's current slogan ("where Amazing happens") - they were 100% on point with the song selection ( i can't think of a better track for this video) not to mention the video it self is beautiful. To the creative marketing leads at NBA: yall killed it on this one.. it's playoff time so who yall wit this year? andy, Amazing starts on April 18th

missed that dope Lebron Interview on 60 minutes last sunday??

i gotchu.. andy, we are all witnesses
