Well, NBA is miles ahead of every other American sport in Europe, and the world too. I would say that Celtics, Sixers and Lakers have most fans here, but it's quite clear why.
I believe you. Wiki says he's French. He plays for the French national team. ESPN, though (maybe b/c he was born in Belgium?) :
i Really like Ntilinka, in 4-5 years he will be a Kawhi Leonard Type Player. Maybe not that good on offense, but on defense probably the best Defender from all guards.
This thread has just moved into elite thread status !! And the only thing it has to do with Bill Walton..... is the winning the championship part !!
Without Doubt Dick Vitale was/is the worst. Prefer Hubie Brown and his "coaching" rather than Walton and his I know it all bullshit.
You should have seen him when he came to visit my football team practice. He lived not far away so he took me up on an invite to stop by. The big dude drove his Dasun, right out on the field so the kids could get a good look at him driving it. The Datsun was pretty damn little if you remember and Bill had the front seat removed. He drove it sitting in the back seat of this two door car. A bit of a strain getting out from back there, but he was a young fella then. The Kids just loved it.
[QUOTE="EL PRESIDENTE, post: 4371921, member: 22581" Yeah, me too. I was stationed in the Rhineland Pfalz (in Pirmasens) for three years 1967-1970.
Mainz-Finthen and Weisbaden for me. Spent a couple weeks in Baumholder. Drove to Biche, France once on a beautiful Sunday afternoon.
It would help if Walton would actually make enlightening commentary about the actual game in progress in front of him. Instead he spends the entire game boisterously jock riding and felating the Warriors and showing off his encyclopedic knowledge about shit nobody gives a shit about. Biggest self important blow hard on the planet next to he who shall not be named. I'm embarrassed he was ever a Blazer after the entire country was subjected to that pathetic demonstration.
