He got his facts wrong. Chinese national team members won't be arrested in Hong Kong by Chinese officials...we run a completely different judicial system thank you very much (N)

Both, the story was awesome, but it goes away from basketball (the original and main theme of your story). But it will be worse if you just decide its a random addon

What do you think?

Re: A Legend Is Born III - Banners + Chapter 25: Homecoming

Mon Jan 03, 2011 11:06 pm

Sorry man, I like Martti's better. It's a bit too big for my liking.

Maybe take out the basketball + Woody's corner.

And only have ESPN logo and then 'NBA Insider, Woody Hannes'?

Martti - are you able to use the same font as the top 'story so far' banner and make me 'Monthly Recap', 'All-Star', 'Playoffs', 'Finals' banners? :)

NBA Enjoys Thanksgiving

Image

NOVEMBER 28, NEW ORLEANS – The NBA celebrated Thanksgiving by holding 9 games for the national holiday.

Eric Gordon scored 36 points along with grabbing 9 rebounds and dishing 7 assists to lead the short-handed LA Clippers to a 112-108 win against the Atlanta Hawks. Amare Stoudemire (back injury) and Ray Lliach (broken toe) watched from the sidelines as DJ White added 21 points, 11 rebounds and Rafer Alston scored 20. Manu Ginobili was the high scorer for the Hawks with 27.

In what would have been the upset of the night, the Portland Trailblazers upset the league leading Sacramento Kings. Ben Gordon led the Blazers with 29 points. Portland also had big contributions from its other 3 starters. Brandon Roy added 24 points and 11 assists, Greg Oden had 23 points and 14 rebounds, and Carlos Boozer finished with 22 points and 9 rebounds. Michael Redd scored 26 and Moses Chara had 18 points, 9 rebounds, 7 assists in the losing effort.

Reshawn Tyson scored 35 in front of friends in his return home, which doubled as a 115-95 win for the Seattle Stealth’s fifth victory on the trot. The Knicks crowd was cheering for Tyson whilst booing the rest of his teammates. Kevin Durant added 20 points. Marreese Speights scored 26 points and Sebastian Telfair tallied 11 points, 7 assists and 4 rebounds against his former team.

The New Orleans Hornets had an exciting come from behind 126-120 win in Dallas against the Mavs. Mark Moore scored 22 points and Chris Paul completed a double double of 22 points and 10 assists. For Dallas, Jerryd Bayless finished with 28 points, 6 assists, Andrew Watson score 25, and Dirk Nowitzki had 17 as he continues to play hurt.

Rockets Win In Watson’s Return

NOVEMBER 29, HOUSTON – The Houston Rockets stormed to victory in the final stanza by outscoring the visiting Mavs 32-23. Yao Ming’s 24 points, 8 rebounds, 2 blocks led five other players in double figures. Danilo Gallinari had a near triple double for Houston with 10 points, 11 rebounds, 9 assists.

The 118-110 win was extra special because Andrew Watson returned to the team he had played one season for and backtracked on an agreement to extend his contract there. Watson played a solid game, finishing with 29 points, 6 rebounds. Leo Lai scored 16 points from off the bench.

Clippers In A Rut

Image

NOVEMBER 30, LOS ANGELES – The 7-10 LA Clippers are having a lot of bad luck this season with three starters out with injuries. Richard Jefferson is out for the rest of this season due to a torn ACL. The Clippers are trying to lobby the NBA to allow them an injury exemption so that they can bring on board an extra player. Jefferson is in the last year of his contract.

Amare Stoudemire has been slowed down by a lower back strain but looks like he is on the mend and aiming to play in 2-3 weeks. Ray Lliach’s broken toe has him looking at staying sidelined for at least another month. “We just got to keep playing,” Clippers PG Rafer Alston said, “We don’t have our core group of guys but there’s nothing much we can do about. Just got to keep playing hard.”

PM? :)

Did a little tinkering with the presentation. I've settled on this for now... not as cluttered as before. Any of you have any tips for better presentation?

This final request to everyone is where the money is at. Anyone would like to create a Seattle Stealth logo? :) 50 points for the best one.

I want to have a 150x100 logo to use in my articles, see above.

A brand new team logo for me and you the fans :)

I think this is better. The team logos help. I prefer articles that way, or with a headshot of the player. :)

The Stealth Need You!

Image

NOVEMBER 30, SEATTLE – The Seattle Stealth have started a competition for fans to create a new team logo. The Stealth’s team colors are grey and indigo. However, the team does not have a team mascot or symbol. That gives Stealth fans a lot of room for creativity. The winner with the best logo has been promised a cash prize and floor seats to a future game this season.

Despite the call for change, General Manager Will Sit revealed that a new uniform would not be in the books. "I believe we have a pretty unique uniform in the NBA," Sit said, "We're playing basketball and not running a fashion show. It doesn't matter if people think we have the ugliest kit in the league." When asked about the team logo, he replied, "The logo is a different thing. Our fans need some kind of moniker and up until now, we've only been known by name and the current logo which just has the team name 'Stealth'. It's time to get something interesting."

Team Captain Jason Kidd felt that Team Owner Magic Johnson was the man to blame for the team's refusal to supply new uniforms, "I think he's worried that it's going to cost a lot of money for the team. I don't see why we can't update our jerseys a little bit. They look like high school training jerseys to me." Andrew Bogut also isn't happy with the team's current uniforms and is lobbying for a change, "They're just so plain. And the grey jerseys soak up all the sweat pretty easily and look terrible."

Assistant Coach and former Stealth Rasheed Wallace defended the team's uniform, "I think they're pretty cool."

The news came over the wire from Hong Kong reporters. The arrest did not happen there. :roll:

ESPN
Mike and Mike in the Morning. transcript

Mike Greenberg: Mike what do you think about this report out of Seattle that an NBA player was arrested in an international drug bust in the city.

Mike Golic: Well its bad news for the sports world especially the NBA, that is for sure!

Greenberg: The sports world? What do you mean?

Golic: While the NBA loses 1 player the Manchester United soccer club is loosing some of their best players.

Greenberg: That is true. Mike, are there any rumors as to who the NBA player might be?

Golic: According to the Northwestern Dirty Water Tabloid....

Greenberg: You actually read that trash?

Golic: Trash?

Greenberg: Well you know what they said about you right?

Golic: No, what?

Greenberg: Read this article to yourself, while I come up with a better source. It's time for a break we will back right after this attempt at some legal money making.

Golic: We are back and I have never been arrested for money laundering. Therefor I will not read this article, for no longer trust this Tabloid.

Greenberg: Thanks Golic, that gives me the scoop. HAHAHA!

Golic: Thats just underhanded!

Greenberg: Whatever. Well I found a more reliable source.

Golic: What, the Examiner?

Greenberg: No, the NNL. They report the news the mainstream media do not report.

Golic: What? Like the crazy Truthers?

Greenberg: They ain't crazy!

Golic: Oh sure! Well what do they have to say?

Greenberg: Here is the article

Sources within FBI have told us the name of the NBA player that was arrested in Seattle on condition of anonymity. Instead of giving me one name that is absolutely the correct one they gave me ten that could be involved with one being the correct player.
1 James Jones
2 Lebron James
3 Rajon Rondo
4 Allen Iverson
5 Carlos Arroyo
6 Derrick Rose
7 Carlos Boozer
8 Andrew Bogut
9 Kobe Bryant
10 Charlie Villanueva

The player I think Is most likely the one could be Kobe Bryant. This is in relation to the news reports that the player is linked to the Benny Hinn situation. Remember some of the Lakers were involved from the onset in that scandal.
Other sources are telling me that they think it is Allen Iverson. Personally I think this could be possible due to his poor performance this year, but this is highly unlikely.

We do know however that a Chinese basketball player who was on China's nation team was one of those involved, and evidently the national team's coach was arrested in Beijing. This is according to anti-government reporters leaking information to Hong Kong reporters.


Golic: I am speechless!

Greenberg: I looked up this NNL and it stands for Nissley News Link. Does that ring a bell.

Golic: Don't tell me it has something to do with that crazy Manfred Nissley.

Greenberg: He owns it.

Golic: Now I know not to believe anything in that report.

Greenberg: I tend to believe him:

Golic: What does he think about Obama?

Greenberg: Golic this is a sports show, not a political show.

Golic: Oh, right.

Greenberg: Well that wraps up today's show. We will see you tomorrow. Wait! Breaking News!!! ESPN Insider Woody Hannes is reporting that the player arrested is non other than, oh my! this is major blow for the...
ESPN News breaks in with a special report.

Re: A Legend Is Born III - Chapter 25, Update, Stealth Logo

Tue Jan 04, 2011 10:41 am

Good luck with the date. Let us know how it goes. ;)

And looking forward to a logo. I was thinking STEALTH with some stealth bombers... :lol:

We don't have a mascot or anything yet. You could make anything. :) But I think the plane fits in better with the team colors. Very plain. :)
