too bad Dish Network will not show NBATV even though it is a free preview right now. I guess I should just order it.
Man, I wanted to see Yao and Hakeem together. Oh well. Calvin Murphy gave a speech. He talked about how grateful he was to be back in the NBA family. He also talked about how when the rain comes, just wait for the sunshine again. He said today the sun is shining again. Pretty obvious what he was talking about. It would be nice if the Rocket family would invite him back in.... Drexler was presented with the Mr. Houston Basketball award. Dr J introduced him. Good speech by Drexler too. Talked about how much he loves Houston and the fact that it's not all cowboys and ranches. Rudy is talking about 95 right now!! Channel 101 on Time Warner Digital Cable.
unfortunately, dream shunned his city and didn't show up this weekend. was sad seeing yao, who hardly knew dream have to accept on his behalf.
Is Anyone watching NBATV? Can anyone who has NBATV please try to cap the ceremony for us and make it available if at all possible? R2K, someone?
For real, I called Dish Network on Friday and went off on them about not showing the free preview. Those idiots didn't know what I was talking and said there in no free preview.
I got the same response. The problem is, the customer service reps they have now are a half-a-world away and they can't do anything. Dish Network used to have people in the United States handle customer service issues, but I guess not anymore.
I just came back from attending the NBA Legends Brunch. Will try and post pics when I get a chance. Unfortunately, I may not be until tomorrow. It was a nice experience to get to see so many Legends in the same room. Got Pics of quite a few of them, except Bill Russell. When I tried to take a picture of him, he put his hand in front of his face. Stay tuned...
As Promised, here are some of the pics I took at the NBA Legends Brunch. Enjoy! http://photobucket.com/albums/e39/AteAllNight/NBA Legends Brunch 2006/
Carl harrerra at the NBA Legends party! How fitting! Hope his dislocated shoulder has healed by now. It seems to be sticking out of that suit.
Dude would have loved to have been there, saw it on NBA TV. Just get chill when I heard Rudy talking about our squads in 94 and 95. Did anyone catch the Chris Tucker stuff at the end, pretty funny..
mario mentioned vernon! robert reid mentioned how amazed he was by Otis's one handed rebounded and his awesome outlet passing! who does that anymore in the NBA?
How did you get to go to the Legends Brunch? I waited outside the Hilton and just missed getting a picture with the Ice Man and Bill Russell. Lots of guys walked by me, but I didn't have anyone nearby to take a picture of me and said player(s).
