How sad is that? A preview of Twitter. Not who'll be MVP, not who'll make the playoffs, Twitter. But it's still related to the NBA, so I'm not breaking any of HOOPSWORLD's blogging rules...I hope. Twitter is so big and huge now in the world we live, I'm even thinking of joining it. Me. Inside info on me here for you; I still play Playstation 2, have never played Playstation 3 nor plan to do so, I refuse to buy a new iPod even though mine is so old I think it's a walkman, I don't do HD TV because my girlfriend thinks it's "a watse of money and the same thing as normal TV", and last but not least, I still wear my favourite NBA jersey -- Garnett's Minnesota jersey. Those are actual facts of my life, sucks huh? Point being is that I really don't move with the times. If I come across something I like, I stick with it. Maybe that's why I'm still playing Sonic, it stuck with me. OK, I'll get to the point now of this blog. Nearly every NBA player has a Twitter account, Kevin Love even made a "Twitter Starting Five" during a summer league game. With the new season upon us (well, exhibition games at least) I think it's time for me to gaze into my crystal ball and forecast some Twitter comments we may see hit the headlines this upcoming season.
R_Artest: "Sure, I only got four shots last night, but I'm happy."
K_Garnett: "Just chestbumped 'Sheed again, I love his man boobs, WOOO!"
Shaq: "Y'all see DeLonte West on those milk cartons lately? Damn."
S_Marbury: "Make sure you tune in for my live show this week, a day in the life of Starbury Vol. 12."
D_Howard: "I miss Hedo."
A_Stoudemire: " Just back from Specsavers..."
K_Love: "Join my "Help Adopt A Spaniard" campaign. For just $3 a month you could help Ricky live in America. Please, we need your help."
R_Artest: "I didn't mean to hit him."
C_Villanueva: "Coach loves when I Twitter during games. He even gave me a nice big seat behind the bench to do it in!!"
Coach_Cal: "Those allegations aren't true, pure lies."
Y_Ming: "Who'd of thought that Tracy could get hurt eating Subway?"
B_Griffin: "Why couldn't Sacramento have won the damn lottery."
T_Mac: "Damn sandwiches."
L_James: "I love Cleveland. I love New York, Brooklyn's my favourite suburb. London was pretty cool also."
R_Artest: "That fan had it coming. Him and his wife."
M_D'Antoni: "Didn't see LeBron signing with the London Towers...really didn't."
Let the Twittering begin...
