Article by Louanne Piccolo
CANDICE, 21, university student from Plockton,
Scotland, UK
I don’t know anything about basketball! I also
don’t know anyone who plays basketball.
I think it’s a popular sport in the USA, but not
in Scotland. But if I were a fan of basketball,
I think I would be a fan of my town or my school’s
basketball team.
BRYAN, 36, firefighter from Memphis, Tennessee, USA
You probably think I’m going to say that
the Memphis Grizzlies are my favorite team,
but they’re not. I don’t have a favorite team
actually. I have a few favorite players from
different teams. I don’t want to support just
one team. I just love good basketball and
talented players.
LUIGI, 74, electrician from Port Elizabeth,
Eastern Cape, South Africa
Basketball is an American sport, but I can watch
it on the Internet. I love the Los Angeles Lakers
because their players are some of the best in
the history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of prthe history of professional basketball.

MAND MANDYY, , 55, freelance editor from Boston,
Massachusetts, USA
I think LeBron James is the best player in basketball
right now. So, his team – the Los Angeles Lakers –
is my favorite team. But if you want a team that has
good coordination and game strategies, then I think
1that the Golden State Warriors is a brilliant team.
1 The Golden State is a nickname for the US state of California.
JOSHUA, 42, sales director from Bury St Edmunds, England, UK
The Atlanta Hawks. I’m from England so I don’t have
a strong connection to an NBA team like people
who were born and live in the United States or
Canada. But, I support the Hawks because
my grandparents and cousins live in Atlanta,
so they are almost like my hometown team.
R ROSOSA, A, 26, nurse from Toronto, Ontario,
Canada
2I live near Toronto, so the Toronto Raptors ! My dad
took me to my first game when I was five. Now,
I’m a huge fan. They are better players now than
when I was a child; they were NBA champions last
year. I don’t like their name, though. Why not the
Toronto Maple Leaves instead of Raptors?
2 Raptor here is the short term for velociraptor. It can also mean a bird of prey.
