1. Because I had to move to a new apartment after last year´s playoffs, since I was screaming at my TV at 5:00 in the morning too often. (true story)
2. Because I live in europe and stayed awake for almost every game, even if it meant only 3 hours of sleep before I had to go to work.
3. Because my Doc told me that I have Diabetes, but I didn´t care and ate candy and drank cola during the games, just because it´s part of my game-routine, and I didn´t want to mess with our mojo.
4. Because I gave other posters around 1.000 TPs over the course of this season without mentioning it. (Hmm...)
5. Because I have a fantastic post/TP ratio even if I´m not a ManU fan or part of the cool clique on CB. (and I only won one PAPOUG)
6. Because I´m humble
7. Because I was one of the first and very few posters who predicted that we´ll regret last off-season, that Tony Allen won´t contribute, that BBD will play a major role in our playoff run if he only gets some confidence in his shot, that Marbury and Moore were bad (read: non-productive) additions, and many more. I´d say my predictions were about 90% right.
8. Because I never make "I told you so" posts.
9. Because my country is full of Lakers and Cavs fans (and I mean, more than 90% of the bball fans here, even my little brother thinks Kobe is the GOAT), and I never met another Celtics fan in my life, so I had to endure a lot of jokes over the last 20 years whenever I wanted to talk about basketball.
10. Because 10 reasons sound better than 9.
