Yaar yahan bhi match nahi karta.. :no:

Spurs for me ... Why always support the best team!!

[gothic_coder]

It's not about best team... It's about play, Laker play amazing basketball, Loved Bryant and O'Neal(Moved to Phoenix Suns.) combination which helped the Lakers win three straight NBA titles.... Never liked australia(Cricket) when they were in the peak, Never supported brazil(Football), :tt2:


BTW spurs is also good team

[saurav_k]

Never liked australia(Cricket) when they were in the peak, Never supported brazil(Football), :tt2:

:thumbup: Yeh hui naa baat...

Dont know why.. All the teams I hate happen to wear Yellow jerseys.. :lol:

Brazil, Australia, Lakers(i dont hate lakers ... i am not much of an NBA follower ... ), Super kings ....

Today's match

Spain Vs Iraq

Most of us would put money on spain, But iraq is capable of turning the match at any time. Emad Mohammed and Younis Mahmoud played really well in AFC cup, So i'm hoping to see good match, Spanish team is full of superstars, so they have the pressure to win this clash


South Africa Vs New Zealand

Both are almost same kind of team, But South africa moral would be high in comparison of kiwis who faced 5 goals defeat agaisnt spain... My money on SA...
