The seats aren't that great, but somewhat reasonable, I guess- $150(CAD) per ticket.

My tickets are section 321, row 13.

The Spurs tickets were too expensive for me. Surprisingly, same with The Lakers game. I guess cuz Lebron is on the team now.

I'll probably get tickets for one more game, will wait and see.
:rockon: That's a quality game with some real star power.

Lakers are at Miami once and it's early in the season. Cheapest tickets are $115 for nosebleed behind the basket. They top off around $750 for the best seats still available. Tickets for Golden State and Boston are both about 25% cheaper.

DeMar DeRozan on Serge Ibaka's youtube show called "How Hungry Are You?".
Serge cooks up Congolese worms and rice. :lol:

Well, I like that you have the C's in the finals.... :rockon: . As for the math, he's played in 441 games in his carreer of 7 years, or 574 possible games. That puts him at 77% participation in reg season...or injured or DNP'd 23% of the time. Still high, but I think he's going to be fine. Also, his history in the finals is pretty impressive. All joking aside, healthy, I tink he goes through the statosphere this year...the kids put the fuck up last year, GH is back, best coach in the leauge, and he's Kyrie Fucking Irving :banana:

I know...I thought you were being additionally dismissive by not dignifying them by their whole name. :lol: All I care about is that the court is flat. :wiggle:

Salivating. I think the "the ring or failure" thinking is ridiculous.....it's dismissive of 2nd place team (and others) as well as the champ team. To beat the opponent in a rich meritocracy, which the NBA is, is an awesome thing. But should the C's get to the dubs in the series, a win would reverse gravitational pulls, etc. GS is the best team (whether or not Boogie works out) I have ever seen and inarguably a top 5 in history (likely top 4). I really want this matchup, I think the dubs will be there. But, whomever does from the west will be bloodied, beaten, and in need of rest. Of course, injuries still have me gun shy with the Celtics too. Friday they play preseason.... :rockon:

That's what I'd say if I had to explain a blank banner

The ring is the thing...are you rocking Celtic blank banner merch?

Yeah, shilling out of my trunk. There is accomplishment in banners because of the competition...with none, or close to none, they are meaningless.

Yeah, some mean more to me than others, fo sho

Get the fuck over it...Rondo I get to an extent....I'd hate to have had coop, but Lonzo is so fuckin bad it's a good thing. Having LeBron is fucking amazing. No one hates him as much as I, but the man's a god and even better off the court. Thes stars aligning for Davis in LA have me more than a bit concerned

I remember that.

I also remember that Karl impregnated a 13 year old when he was 20 and then refused to have anything to do with the kid after she gave birth.

I just noticed that the Raptors first regular season game is October 17th, which is recreational marijuana legalization day in Canada. I bet lots of fans watching outside in Jurassic Park will be sparking up. :lol: :kv:
