It’s my favorite time of the year!

I finally got around to watching a Bulls preseason game today. Totally didn’t recognized any of the players on the floor, at least not until Joakim Noah (who I have a serious new crush on, for the reasons seen below) checked in. I’m not too fussed about the fact that we no longer have the services of Ben Gordon (even though he was a ball hog, the guy can get on FIRE…sometimes…), but Derrick and Tyrus better get better (ack, I couldn’t think of another way to say it) soon in time for the season opener.

In light of the approaching of my favorite time of the year (NBA SEASON!!!!), I decided to reminisce the glorious, epic balooza that was the first round series against the Celtics last season (was that seriously only just a few months ago?) and YouTube’d what was, in my opinion, the greatest and most badass moment of that series:

I can seriously watch that over and over again and get a high off it. I remember exactly where I was at that moment. I was at Firehaus, one of the bars here at school, standing on a table and just going insane. When Noah made that block, I could scarcely believe it. When that punk ass fool (I absolutely DETEST the Celtics) Pierce couldn’t outrun him, I laughed. And when Joakim posterized him, I almost fainted.

Alright, that’s enough Joakim love for now. Time to get back to schoolwork!
