    For the past few weeks, I’ve been doing 720degrees slamdunks, alley-hoops, 3-pointers with 95% accuracy, and a lot more of that jazz just to warm myself up for the exciting new season of Singapore Slingers starting this September!

    Oh, in case you were wondering - just like white men, geeks can’t jump. So I’ve really been talking about doing my hoops and hooks on the latest NBA Ballers : The Chosen One on my XBOX360 which Microsoft has kindly passed me a review copy together with Ninja Gaiden II in May 2008.

    While Ninja Gaiden II blew me away with it’s amazing graphics and gameplay, it was really NBA Ballers : The Chosen One that got me hooked to the screen like I was catching the finals of American Idol as I wore the shoes of Kobe Bryant and Yao Ming and slamdunked all over over my opponents.

    Hey, they’re running a contest over at the website too for the nicest game graphic!

    Grand Prize
    Trip to the Conference Finals for Two, Video Game Package (5 games), Dwight Howard Signed Jersey & NBA Ballers: Chosen One design opportunity

    1st Prize
    Dwight Howard Signed Jersey & Video Game Package (5 games)

    Oh did I mentioned that we have a stellar new lineup at the Singapore Slingers with some of the very best signings the NBL has ever seen? Complete with local heartthrob Darren Ng (OK, he’s Malaysian) who was once voted the top player in South Australia! Watch out NBL!
