today is november 11, 2011 - or in pop culture, 11-11-11. i'm not really a fan of superstition and numbers, but some people consider this day to be a lucky one, while others don't really give a damn. nonetheless, this phenomenon won't happen again in a century, and that perhaps is the reason why a lot of people are making a fuss out of it.

they say 11/11/11 is a good day to make wishes. this might just be my lucky day to wish some things for the love of basketball, and lady luck might just smile upon me. who knows? anyway, here are 11 wishes - all basketball-related - that i have for 11/11/11.

AND 1: Kampante

what do allan evangelista, tim duncan, and bojan bogdanovic have in common except playing basketball?
mga kampante sila.

AND 1: Basketball never stops

even in my schedule, basketball never stops.

AND 1: i want my nba (part II)

too much basketball action, no nba games to watch. please end this lockout and let me defend my xs fantasy basketball title!

AND 1: i want my nba

since the nba and the players association still can't decide on how to break this lockout, i have no other choice but to watch highlights of retro nba games like this one.

please settle the lockout. i want my nba. and i want to defend my nba fantasy basketball championship this season.

on a positive note, it's nice to take a look at some of the nice kicks sported by players way back in 1996: jordan 11 (which will release this december), penny 1 (which i copped last march), air uptempos (worn by scotty pippen, ron harper, and some magic players on the black colorway), and of course, shaqnosis (a classmate of mine used to have this way back in the minor seminary).

with that, just like you, i ask the same question:

AND 1: Metta World Peace

so, ron artest is now officially "metta world peace." who's getting his jersey? i am. hahahaha
