Shoot-wait-pass-take a layup-rebound-rebound!! Oh yes! And that is a basket. Just the screams from the crowd are enough to make blood gush down anyone’s veins and when we are talking about basketball- there is no limit to anticipation and the adrenaline rich blood. Every move of the guys in jerseys is watched upon with people shouting to pass or shoot. Some cursing while some cheering but as we say it, its all a part of the game. But as any American would know it, it’s not just a game. NBA or National Basketball Association is to America what cricket is to India and what Football is to Brazil and to rest of the world. The fast paced game has been winning hearts of millions of people with more and more people getting involved in the game such as street style and more.

    My programmer is trying to convince me to move to .net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses. But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using Movable-type on a number of websites for about a year and am anxious about switching to another platform. I have heard very good things about blogengine.net.
