KBL

Hit up a knights game.

Not bad, they really changed the stadium, around, at least since I was last there in 05.
First off, they got actual concessions inside with pizza, popcorn and nachos, no draft beer yet.
Also, there were ajumas and a pjojangmacha out front just like a baseball game. Sweet stuff.
They also renovated the interior of the stadium, new bathrooms, more signs in the halls and in the court area. They also installed a couple new electronic cheer boards and got a lot more ads running.

Best of all, wasn't hot as hell inside!

I do not miss sweating my balls off watching the games.

Nice game too, SK came back from behind to win.

I did see one thing, they must have changed the foreigner rule to only 1 foreigner in the 4th quarter rather then only one in the 3rd quarter.

More clowns getting high on weed.

Do they not have posters of Jackie Jones in every locker room to stop these guys from getting caught smoking weed?

Can't you just put down the bong for a few months during the season.

SK already replaced the weedman. Tall defensive white center Stimsma? Stimsman? . Unfortunately he fouled out in the 4th quarter. They went into overtime with all Koreans against 2 fresh foreigners.

I don't know what is up with the league now, both teams only used one foreigner in both the 2nd and 3rd quarter.

They still pulled off the win in OT. They got this guy Minsu Kim. He looks like half Korean. He led the team last night, he really turns it on in the 4th.

As good as SK looks lately I don't think their going to the playoffs this year.

Finally got to a Thunders game. As expected they did nothing to the stadium. And inside is still baking ass hot.

I don't get why the High school gym is redone and looks like something better then a high school gym and the olympic gym looks like nothing better then a high school gym.

Put in some food stands, do something with the seats, turn down the heater, and have some better half time shows. SK seems to be putting efforsts into keeping crowds, even though they are in 8th place.

wow, where did they get weed in Korea? :ph34r:

daemacho....it exists in korea.

Weed does exist in SoKor.

Right before I left, November 2007, there was a raid in Noksupkyong (SP?? It's right next to Yongsan Army Base) and several Canadians and Americans got arrested for possession and distribution. I never found out what the final outcome was, but i do know there were a lot of scared teachers in that area.

here's the draft from a few weeks ago.

The KBL season is getting ready to kickoff. I'll try to find the final list of foreign players for each team.

KCC loses to the Okinawa Golden Kings 73-69 in a matchup of Korea/Japan League champions.

KBL season kicks off tonight, Dongbu vs KCC

Sweetness.

I am hoping SK can have a better season this year.

They did keep Dabbert which is good. That guy swatted Ha last year, he's a defensive gem, plus he can shoot good. I see they still got their core team, which is good, they play good together.

I do wish they would lax up on the foreigner rules more. Having 2 foreigners in there for 2 quarters of the game kinda sucks, especially when one or both are rolling.

SK started the season with a win against Electronic land led by center Janghoon Seo.

My main man Minsu Kim shot 60% including two 3 pointers.
Sungyoon Bang was the leading scorer for the Knights getting 22 points, going perfect 6/6 from the line and shooting 53% from the field.

Foreigners Walker and Debert combined for 11 rebounds and 16 points, playing a combined 40 minutes.

I am thinking the rule must be, 2 foreign players combined can only play 40 minutes between the two of them, sucks, it's like having 2 halves of a single player.
