2. Back pass to the left for assist play but off the board and goal in (while teaching my Korean room mate how to play basketball).
3. Made a swished shot behind the back post of the goal (many times) (unbelievable)

20. NBA comparison to my play = Jordan, Magic, Bird, Kobe, Lebron James & Jabar in offensive play; Jayson Williams in passing the leather; Yao Ming in blocking the ball (But I thing it's like Andrei Kirilengko). Dwyane Wade "D-Wade" in no look shots unbelievable lay-up. My personal analysis I played also like Earl "The Pearl" Monroe or "Black Jesus", Rick Barry and Pete "Pistol Pete" Maravich for their amazing moves in the hoops. PBA (Philippine Basketball Association) comparative to Samboy Lim "the Skywalker", Allan "the Triggerman" Caidic are Asian Finest in 1986 & 1990. Vergel "the Areal Voyager" Meneses & Mark "the Spark" Caguioa. I'm happy cos before I'm just a 2nd grade streetballer. Now they compared me with the greats & legends of basketball. Koreans calls me "Freestyle". And my last game with Woosuk University students in a streetball game, I made 20 points with my Filipino youth brethren and we won in score of 50 - 47. Koreans are tall and strong rebounders. Always played great basic basketball. Our only edge, basketball is no.1 ball game in Philippines and most watch than any other sports and our passion. Even nowadays some mens passion are computer games & billiards. There are many leagues here like Professional ushered by 2nd oldest pro-league PBA, Liga Philipinas from merge leagues, and the newest Asean Basketball League (ABL) inter-Asean countries with 2 international imports & 1 to 3 Filipinos imports the rest are locals line-up except RP Patriots team, semi-pro PBL. Two famous University - College basketball in the land the UAAP & NCAA. And two more university - college hoop leagues. And local amatures like inter-towns, inter-barangay & the inter-colors. The smallest is 3 on 3 streetball leagues. I saw also played tune ups in mini-full court basketball in some parts of Albay & Angeles City. Some times I dunk on these 9 ft. rims, the Tomahawk Dunk. If you visit my country there are lots of basketball court from covered like coliseums, semi-covered courts, open courts, sreetballs in semi-busy streets & under the big trees. The smallest basketball goal is like the size of softball circumference and the ball is green tennis ball used by 7-12 years old in late 80s and early 90s. Usually under the trees like mango & coconut.

"WANTED Postcards with Manny Paquiao, Xavi and many other sports celebrities


Hi!

Congratulations to Manny Paquiao (Philippines), who won today his 7th boxing world champion title in 7 different weight categories, over time!!!
I know there are stamps with him.
Should be postcards, too.
Ideally, I'd like a Philippines collector to create for me maximum cards with Manny.
I don't suppose his autograph could be on such a postcard...:)

Also, postcards with Xavi, one of the best football players.
I created Zazzle stamps with his name.

Somebody in Estonia was able to create great FDCs (First Day Covers), autographed by Olympic champions!!! - I saw in Fan Ming's collection.
How about autographed maximum cards for me? :)

What other celebrity, from sports or not, could be on your postcards for trade? Could you even make it a maximum card?
See examples in my websites. :)
--------------------------------
Look in my For trade sub-album (mostly Virginia and WashingtonDC sub-albums). The Special Trade is 1-for-2 normal, or 1-for-1 special.
