This thread will make me seem like an idiot to most, but it will hit home with a few. Now, I know most of you guys don't believe in jinxes, which is fine. I, however, am extremely superstitious. And I know quite a few others on here that are too.

One week before KG went down this year, I was talking to a friend saying "People need to stop saying that KG looks 2007-esque, it is only going to end bad for him." Lo and behold he went down not too long after. I swear to God i was calling this injury before it even happened. I knew there was no way he would be able to live up to expectations that people had if they kept saying he's playing like his 07'/'08 mode. So this is my official request: When KG returns to full health, pleeeeeeeease stop talking about his movement with things like "the old KG is back. omg its 2008." etc etc. Compliment KG on his performances, that's absolutely fine. but please don't focus on his health improvements.

i know this is probably never going to go through, but i had to rant bcuz we as a community need to do everything we can to support our team!

/end rant

No worries, by replying you just unjinxed it. But.. by replying did I doublejinx? Oh no  ;D

On a more serious note, I used to be kind of superstitious and would have to do things in a certain order so as not to go crazy thinking about it. I'm thinking superstition is really just a form of OCD. You know, to think that you can control stuff by acting in a certain way. You can't. Things happen and chances are whether you did something or you didn't do something it had absolutely nothing to do with how that stuff worked out (or didn't work out). Especially if we're talking about being fans of a sports team.

There, see, I unjinxed the whole dang thing!
(And if I didn't, we can always point the finger at you, rohanzsta  ;))

haha . i didn't jinx KG. my post jinxed the fact that people won't talk be talking about KG's health (which is essentially jinxing KG).

However, if you look at my post, at the very end, you will notice that i put "i know this is probably never going to go through," which essentially means i unjinxed the jinx of people being unable to control their thoughts of jinxing KG.

Trust me. I think about this stuff a lot. before i posted, i made sure that the thread did nothing to re-jinx the big ticket!

Yeh, I wanted to comment on this matter, but I didn't want to do so in a low brow unofficial thread.  ;)

Start Orien - your absolutely right (Unofficially)

Did you know Orien Greene is the only Orien to play for the Boston Celtics?

Have a nice weekend! I'll be back next week to start some more innocent nonsense malarkey.
