<font size="3"><u>Chutney</u></font> 1. Out of all the usernames you've had, which one was your favourite? Probably this one. It's simple. I used to change my user name when I got bored, but I'm happy with this one. 2. Who's your favourite retired NBA player? Of course Michael. Every lunch in middle school while playing soccer, we'd talk about Jordan 3. Craziest thing you've ever done (that you can post on these forums)? You know, probably not the craziest but the most unhealthy thing I've done--drink 13 shots of espresso in a span of an hour and a half. My friend Mark decided it'd be "cool" to have an espresso drinking contest at work (since it's all free), so we had a war...and I prevailed...13-9. I could've stopped at 10... <u><font size="3">Karma</u></font> 1. Who's your favourite poster to debate against? VC axed this question, but I'll answer it, I don't think it's a favorite poster type of question. I like debating a lot with Huevon in the NFL forum about how overrated Peyton Manning is. I'll admit his greatness, but I just think he's terribly overrated. I'll love it when Carson Palmer takes over the title as best QB this year Basketball wise? It's always fun debating with Allnet...Rock4Life is fun too, just because his views never change 2. Do you love the Mamba vs. Umair debates that sometimes occur as much as the rest of us? The Mamba/Umair debates are fun. I hope he knows I'm just messing with him, it is hard to detect sarcasm over the internet somtimes. All I try to do is help him out with his pornstache 3. Is there anything you would NEVER want to do/try in your lifetime that other people might find exciting (I.E- skydiving for example)? Skydiving is a great example. I got these regular customers that offer me free skydiving lessons every time they come in...but ew, I think I'll pass. I don't think I'd ever go rock climbing, either. <font size="3"><u>Iggy</u></font> 1) Megan Fox or Jessica Alba? Jessica Fox--I think Jessica Alba is so horribly overrated. She's cute, but way too overrated. 2) Favorite movie of all time? That's a tough one, I love movies. Casablanca, Gladiator, Young Frankenstein, Raging Bull, Taxi Driver, and many more...if I had to choose one though, It would probably be...Taxi Driver. Robert De Niro >* 3) Biggest pet peave? It's really annoying when customers throw their money at you, but the worst is...when they throw their credit card down on the counter...it makes the plastic flop noise. Once that noise is made, it's decaf for them. <u><font size="3">M Two One</u></font> 1. Do you ever plan to go to Europe in the future? If so, which three unique cities would you choose to visit? Yes. I definitely want to hit up Sweden, Italy, Greece, and some parts of France before I do. Unique cities? I don't know if they're unique but I want to go to Rome, Normandy Beach, and I want to go to the Swiss Alps. 2. What is your opinion on the constant rumors about the NBA being frauds and fixing numerous matches to make more profits on specific "hot" teams? This has nothing directly to do with the current scandal brought out by the FBI on referee Tim Donaghy. I think any scams against the NBA, whether it is true or not, is terrible for the league. The league is falling out of grace with a lot of people because of the corrupt officially, David Stern, and how boring the game has become compared to the prime during the 80's and 90's. Right now, any scandal whether it's big or small is going ot hurt the NBA. 3. Do you believe in more money or more respect? You can't choose both. Definitely respect. I don't care how much money I have in life. I'd love to be well off, but respect has always been high on my list of priorities. I don't like greedy, scheming people. <font size="3"><u>Mag</u></font> 1. Who is your dark-horse in the race for the title for this upcoming year? The Washington Wizards. They've got 3 all-star caliber players. If they can stay healthy, they should be able to win the Southeast division. 2. The most beautiful woman alive is. . ? Why? Kate Beckinsale FTW. She's got everything--she's cute, she's sexy, she's charismatic, god I want to be the father of her babies. 3. Who is your biggest role model? My dad and my Grandfather. They've always been there for me and will always be there for me when I need them. <u><font size="3">Will637</u></font> 1. How will the Wizards fare this season? Like I said, they're my dark horse to win it all and Arenas is my dark horse for MVP. If they can stay healthy, I think they're a top 4 team in the Eat. 2. Where do you see yourself in 10 years. Hopefully I'll be still alive, set in my career, and beginning a family. 3. What game is in your Xbox 360 right now? I have no idea. I just sold MLB 2k7 on Ebay for $40. <font size="3"><u>Brian</u></font> 1. Who's dumber/who do you hate more Smush Parker, Kwame Brown, or the White Mamba? Kwame Brown is the dumbest. He's got all the physical tools to be an absolute beast with his body, but he lacks the drive and determination. Smush Parker is a talented but inconsistent player, his attitude sucks. I hate Sasha the most, his shot is supposedly flawless in practice but he's terrible in the game. 2. Would you make out with Sam Cassel for 5 minutes straight, and then make out with Chris Kaman for 5 minutes straight while grabbing his crotch Reggie Evans style (while wearing a Tim Thomas Clipper jersey), if it meant winning 1 million dollars and killing Jim Buss and Mitch Kupchak, would you do it? Uh, no. I think that's the gayest thing I've ever been asked. One million ain't enough and life in jail for murdering Mitch just misses out on the appeal factor. 3. Can you beat Umair one on one in basketball? Well considering he has the size of an 8 year old, yes. He may be quicker than me, but when I get him in the post, it's over. Think Shaq/Vlade matchups. <font size="3"><u>The Legend</u></font> 1.Would you be a Laker fan if Kobe got traded? Yup, I'm a Laker fan first. I just hate the 3 people in charge of our organization. They've got no balls. 2.Did you ever believe KG to LA? Do you still think it is possible? Yeah, he'll sign for the MLE when he fails in Boston . For real, I never really did think it was possible. 3.What is the most reasonable thing the Lakers can do this offseason in an attempt to get better? Give up Bynum and Odom for Jermaine. The deal is still on the table, but neither the Pacers nor the Lakers refuse to budge on their offer. The Pacers want Bynum and Odom, the Lakers say either Bynum or Odom. We haven't been successful with those two players since getting them, so what's the point in keeping them? <u><font size="3">Huevonkiller</u></font> 1. As of now, where do you rank Kobe all-time? Individually talent wise, I think he's top 7 all time, possibly top 5. Team success wise, top 25. 2./3. What kind of obnoxious customers have you come across throughout your tenure at Starbucks? How do you deal with them? Caffeine-addicted assholes. -Throw their money/credit card/gift card at you -Talk on their cellphone, tell you to hold on and then try to lip their order to you -Demand that you don't charge them for an extra shot of espresso -Customers who don't acknowledge you when you tell them to have a good day, they don't even look at you and say thank you...they just walk away. I'll mess with their drinks. I'll give them Decaf, whole milk if they want non-fat and vice versa, I'll make their frappucino's extra icey, I'll give them extra whip cream to cut back on their frap, I'll give them a lot of room for cream or no room at all--it's amazing how upset a customer can get if you leave them no room for cream. <font size="3"><u>Umair</font></u> 1. How do you see the Rockets next year? A top 5 team in the west if they're healthy. 2. What do you think of Yao in the next few years? I think Yao's production will stay about the same, the top center in the league. 3. How do you find JBB and what has been your best experience on it? JBB spammed the SLAM magazine boards, and I found it. My best experience has been growing with the site. I joined in April of the first year it opened and I didn't expect to be here this long. It's like an internet family. <font size="3"><u>NTC</font>[/b] 1. If you were stranded on a desert island, and you could only have 3 things with you? What would those 3 things be, and why? A boat full of gasoline to get off the island, Kate Beckinsale for some action, and a satellite phone to I can get off the damn island and save Beckinsale's life 2. What is the greatest lesson you have learnt in life so far? Nothing comes easy. You have to work for everything you achieve and the harder you work, the greater you're accomplishment will be and you'll feel more satisfied. 3. What are your plans for the future? What do you see yourself doing in 10 years time? I want to get into Law Enforcement...eventually criminal profiling and criminal psychology. I want to have a family with 3 kids, maybe 4. <font size="3">Kidd</font></u> 1. If you were stranded on a desert island, and you could only have 3 JBB members with you, who would they be? Are there any chicks on the site? If not, I'd take Smitty for comic relief, Shape for the smarts, and probably...Umair for the village idiot (just kidding, Umair) 2. Am I as cool as you? Dude, you're cooler. You seen the preview for the movie Superbad? You're McLovin. 3. How happy are you to have Fisher back in LA? Heh, is that a joke? I don't really like the acquisition. If Smush's attitude wasn't so piss poor, I would've rather kept him because offensively he's just as good...probably even better than Derek. The only thing I like about acquiring Fisher is the leadership that he'll bring. <font size="3"><u>Legacy</font></u> 1. Can you beat me in a rap battle? <u>Probably not.</u> 2. Thoughts on Vince Carter? He catches too much heat for being overrated and for wanting out of Toronto. He's a B rate star who has times of coming up clutch. I don't necessarily like him, but I don't not like him. 3. Who would win in a fight, Vince or Kobe? Kobe fights like a pansy, I haven't seen Vince fight...or at least I can't remember him fighting. I'd put my money on Vince. <font size="3"><u>Master Shake</font></u> 1. If you were Kobe and OJ Mayo dunked on you, what would you tell your kid after the game? It's a part of basketball, I don't get why some people make such a big deal out of a facial. It's awesome in the heat of the moment, but I'd tell my kid just how it is. 2. If Mitch and Buss came to your house because their car broke down, would you help them? Hell no. In fact, I think I might start some **** with them for "trespassing". 3. If you had one wish what would it be? (No "I wish for 100 more wishes" because that is cheating) Awesome health for me, my family, and friends...are we allowed compound wishes? Or does that count for three? <u><font size="3">Bahir</u></font> 1. Who is the most underrated player on the Lakers? Wow..that is a tough question. I'd probably go with...Chris Mihm. A lot of people don't realize that for a long time he was the second best player on the Lakers, ahead of Odom. I think he's capable of being a 12 and 8 big man in the league. 2. Who is your favorite super hero? Batman for the easy win. 3. Name one thing you do in private (nothing perverted please), that you don't reveal to those close to you IRL. Well if I revealed it..it wouldn't be a secret, would it? Probably would be listen to Kelly Clarkson. It's a guilty pleasure, ok? <u><font size="3">shapecity</u></font> 1. Have you or any co-workers ever peed in the coffee at Starbucks? Do you know if this is prevelant with Stabucks? Not that I know off. But since reading this, I refuse to drink hot coffee from their. 2. What is something you want to accomplish in your life so you don't live in regret in the future? Finish college. I'm not the most motivated person when it comes to school and I think if I didn't finish school, I'd regret it. I think I'll be the second male in my family to graduate from a university (if and when I transfer to one) 3. Give me your best, realistic trade for Kobe. Andres Nocioni, Tyrus Thomas, Ben Gordon, and fillers (or picks) for Kobe. <u><font size="3">Shard</u></font> How does Chone Figgins possibly equal Sean Figgins? Stupidest name ever. That is a question I ask myself every time I think of the Angels. It looks like Choney. As I type this, my Angels are spanking Jeff Weaver right now 4-0. <font size="3"><u>Dark Hero</font></u> 1.In your opinion which two teams will be in the World Series? Angels and the Mets, Angels winning in 6. 2.Yao or Dirk which one will you prefer to play with the Lakers? Yao easily. Dirk is more of a perimeter player than a post player, Yao would really help out the Lakers...so would Dirk, just not as much as Yao. 3.Best NL and AL pitcher? AL - Now it's Johan Santana still, but give him about a year or two and my money is on young stud Justin Verlander NL - Jake Peavy <font size="3">Blur</font> Are you a Kobe fan or Lakers fan? Will you still be an active Lakers fan if Kobe leaves (or jump to the team he is traded to)? Of course I'm a Laker fan before a Kobe fan. My problem with the Lakers is Jim Buss, Mitch Kupchak, and to an extent Jerry Buss. They don't have any balls to take chances. I'll still be an active Laker fan, they'll still be my number 1 team and I'll start following the team that Kobe goes to. If Arenas leaves the Wizards for a team like the 76ers (who will have alot of money to offer) will you lose respect for him, considering he previously stated he wasn't about the money (paraphrased). I will lose some respect, but I could understand because Eddie Jordan is the stupidest coach in the league. I'd like to see him stay though, as I think the Wizards are on the brink of being a contender. <u><font size="3">MrJ</u></font> 1) Why is New York City so much better than Los Angeles? The food, the transportation system, the diversity..they've got everything except the weather and the girls...therefore LA = NY. 2) Why is Magic Johnson so in love with Harlem? He's a tool. No, I don't know lol. Ask him... 3) If you had to invest $500 in a security, which one would it be? Can you please explain that question in a stupider way? <font size="3"><u>THE DREAM</u></font> 1. Hulk Hogan or The Ultimate Warrior? <u>Hulk Hogan easily. He got me into wrestling. I love his show..Hogan Knows Best.</u> 2. East Coast hip hop or West Coast hip hop When I was really into hip hop, it was easily east coast. The West coast is too gangster for my liking. 3. Did your ex-girl ever give you an explanation on why she did what she did? Nope. I didn't need one though, after about a day without her I was happier than I've ever been. I'm too young to be tied down for two plus years. Not being with her is the best thing that has happened to me. <font size="3"><u>Clos</u></font> 1. What do you think of the WWE nowadays? Absolute garbage, it's such a joke...Vince has ruined what he and his father established. 2. If you were the Orlando Magic's GM, would you have gone after Rashard Lewis or someone else? Yeah, but not for more than 60-65 million. I would've pushed for Billups harder, though. 3. On a scale of 1-10, how strongly do you feel about the Lakers now after they have gone somewhat on a decline? Easily a 10, like I've said twice in my answers, I just hate the management. Thank you guys for the questions, I hope I answered most of them adequately. Feel free to ask more.

Very entertaining answers Mamba. In the future, I'll make sure to acknowledge cashiers that tell me to have a good day. I love arguing about Peyton too. Every year he has to overcome some sort of obnoxious obstacle but he is slowly proving me right. My God was I on fire in the last NFL post-season (11-0). Good luck to your Chargers btw.
LOL I just realized Jessica Fox...hahah, I didn't mean that... I meant Megan Fox..but I'd settle for a hybrid.
