SMU vs Egoli Magic tour game
Information provided by James Mtwetwa
This Wednesday 4th June 2008, a beefed up Egoli Magic team made up of some SA players and players from Wits Alumni will take on an American college team SMU that is touring SA. This second installment follows the game on Sunday 1st June and will take place at 12h30 at the Mandeville courts. MSU took the opportunity to hold clinics on Saturday 31 May for some U19 players and the event was hosted by the Bedfordview Dragons. A report from sunday’s game will be provided during the week.
In 2007 after getting frustrated at the lack of information about the game he loved in South Africa, Victor decided to start Mybasketball and he hasn't looked back. For close to 15 years, Victor has experienced the game as a player, a coach, a spectator and now from a media perspective. The whole purpose of Mybasketball is to keep the fans informed about the game and anything related to it; whether it is here in SA, Africa or Overseas. Victor has made some great friends along the way and rekindled some amazing friendships through the game.. Some of those friends have joined him on this crusade to make basketball better for everyone, and he looks forward to a South Africa where basketball gets the credit it deserves and the focus is on youth development and improving the coaches.

Sup K.
Why are you calling out brothers left, right and center?
As far as connections go, like Neo says mine are also not that deep!
Maybe the organisers can move the game to later that day to accomodate the working class and get a crowd in?
Kw3ku said on June 2, 2008
Who are the organisers? do you know?
E’body is quite now, what happened to the hype and predictions about NBA finals? 2 well deserving teams made the centerstage……..

Hi K, Interested and Baller,
I have been told this will be their last game. I sent an email to James asking him for more information and I am still waiting so I will update you guys as soon as I know..
Lakers vs Celtics, Lakers have Kobe and Gasol but the Celtics looks hungry and have balance on their roster so it’s going to be hot. I am anticipating a Celtic win because of the way they have hit the scene this year but we’ll see.
ciao,V

should agree with Vic. anyway,am rooting for the celtics to win. i think Ray Allen has caught fire now after a shaky shooting spell during the first 4 games of the conference final. if PP comes to life then i see the Celtics winning. they have more firepower than the lakers with Kobe, Gasol and Oden..
is anyone up for a bet against the Celtics?
Kw3ku said on June 3, 2008
Ofcourse Baller, as interesting as all of the above points you cant rule out KB and fischer with the leadership of P. Jackson(experience will go a long way in this one)
I honestly dont see Celtics developing a 6/7gear on this series, Lakers on the hand? EI man Im loving the prospects tough
