Whenever I hear the NBA slogan; “I love this Game”, I can’t help but marvel at the sport’s popularity. Almost every place I go, there are basketball courts nearby. Boys of all ages play enthusiastically, trying to imitate their NBA idols. It’s not hard to see that the majority of people love this game, making basketball part of the American culture.
This basketball fever is the very thing that popularizes a lot of basketball players. Almost everyone you ask recognizes the number 23 jersey of the legendary player Michael Jordan. Some like Shaquille O’Neal even extended their fame beyond the court and involve themselves in other field, like starring a movie or a commercial. The sport fever also fueled the rise in the number of sports memorabilia such as game cards and authentic NBA jerseys being sold in different places for the millions of die-hard fans of the National Basketball Association teams and players.
Basketball aficionados enjoy watching NBA games more than anything else. For a loved one who’s a big fan of a particular team, a great gift to give him would be custom NBA jerseys that have his name, or his idols’ names and numbers on them. On The Field is a one stop source for all NBA apparel needs.
Order several pairs of NBA jersey and NBA shorts for the whole family, including mom. You can all watch the NBA games live or on TV together while wearing your own “uniforms” to get more into the spirit of competition. Choose from all the top NBA players’ jerseys and gear and order the exact designs you want.
If your husband is a sports lover try planning a themed-anniversary get away. Start off by buying tickets to see his favorite team play. Try to get good seats; he’ll love you for it. Next, buy matching NBA jerseys for the two of you. It will be so romantic to wear matching jerseys out in public.
After a night of sports watching, reserve a hotel room near the stadium. That way you can enjoy as many beers as you want to at the game. When you arrive at your hotel room, order a bottle of champagne and some room service. Your husband will be so happy he didn’t have to plan anything.

The best gift I ever received was a Michael Jordan personalized NBA jersey. I have always loved basketball. But, as an awkward, gangly kid of 10, I wasn’t pinning my hopes on making a career out of it. It was on my 11th birthday that my Dad took me to a Bulls game in our hometown of Chicago.
Michael Jordan blew my mind! I couldn’t believe how high he could jump. Later that day my parents gave me a gift. It was a Bulls jersey with Michael Jordan’s name and number on it. Though, I didn’t end up playing professional basketball, that jersey will always remind me of that day with my Dad, and Jordan’s seamless performance.
Micheal Jordan is to Generation X what Joe Dimaggio was to baby boomers. He presented a changing era, and exuded confidence in what we all assumed to be the best things in life. His play on the court reflects who he was off the court and what he did on the court was nothing short of spectacular. Jordan’s career in basketball is unrivaled.
After his three-peat, retirement and second three-peat, Jordan has proven that he is in fact the greatest basketball player to ever exist. His basketball style changed the game forever and those effects can be seen in how people play the game today. You can still see Jordan NBA jerseys amongst the Lebron’s and Bryant’s.
The Seattle Super Sonics (also called the Seattle Sonics) were an American professional basketball team based in Seattle, Washington that played in the Pacific and Northwest Divisions of the National Basketball Association (NBA) from 1967 until its final season in 2007–2008.
Following this season, the team relocated to Oklahoma City under a different nickname that has not yet been selected. The Super Sonics nickname, logo and color scheme will be made available to any future NBA team in Seattle. According to the team’s new owners, the Sonics’ franchise history will be “shared” between the Oklahoma City team and any future Seattle team.
The Super Sonics won the NBA Championship in 1979 and were one of two teams of the four major men’s professional sports teams in Seattle — the Seattle Mariners, the Seattle Metropolitans, the Seattle Seahawks, and the Super Sonics — to have won a championship.
Sam Schulman owned the team from its 1967 inception until 1983. It was also owned by Barry Ackerley (1983–2001) and the Basketball Club of Seattle, headed by Starbucks chairman Howard Schultz (2001–2006). In 2006, the Super Sonics were purchased by Oklahoma City businessman Clay Bennett. After failing to reach agreement on a new arena in the Seattle area, the Super Sonics moved to Oklahoma City before the 2008–2009 season when they reached a $45 million settlement with the city of Seattle to pay off the team’s lease with Key Arena early.
The team’s official NBA jerseys (particularly that of the Gary Payton-era) are considered collector’s items now.
It is always nice to know that an entire league can still get called out in regards to ‘illegal’ drug use. No honor among thieves, a fool and his money are soon parted, and candor is not necessarily a valuable quality when you are admitting what no one wants to their ‘role models’ doing.
Apparently Josh Howard thought he was in confession on Michael Irvine’s radio show admitting that he smokes dope, regularly, off-season. If this wasn’t enough to have listeners at full attention he openly decided to be the poster boy that implicated the entire NBA league with regards to marijuana use. I guess he did not get the memo. We all ‘know’ but an assumption is one thing. I found the following bets posted from BetUs.com and thought it was too great not to share.
