I've been a lurker for about 1-2 years now just reading things every now and then. I'm 21-years-old and I've been an NBA fan since I was about 13-14. I don't have the historical perspective of a lot of you guys on here, but I do love basketball.
The odd thing is that I don't have an NBA team. I live in Jacksonville, FL and I've just never picked up a team since I was little. I've always just followed players. I do watch a lot of Orlando Magic and Miami Heat games that pick up around here.
I've been a Florida Gators fan since I was a little kid so obviously I love Gators football and most importantly, Gators basketball. They've been down since those back-to-back championships, but I'm still a fan regardless. This does play a part in myself following a lot of Gators in the NBA too (David Lee, Al Horford, Joakim Noah, Matt Bonner, etc).
Anyway, just a quick background. I love reading these boards and I hope to get in on some of the conversations.
Definitely .. I don't think I'll be posting all that much but I definitely felt the need to help support this place since I've been enjoying reading it so long.
Welcome and thanks! I wish I had the weather you do...

I could do it - it's just that I'd have nothing to do there except freeze.
