explain your avatar

[babybulls]

This might be a stupid thread but I thought it could be a good idea. I saw people asking about other peoples avatar's cause they didn't know who they were so i thought of making a thread for everyone to say who their avatar is and y they picked it, naturally some avatars will be more obvious then others.

I picked kirk hinrich cause i love the bulls and he's one of my favorite players and my reason for the picture is i remember on draft night in 2003 there was a video game commercial, i don'tk now if it was ea sports or who but it had a few projected lottery picks in it. Throughout the commercial hinrich would come on and do all these goofy behind the back passes and stuff, trying to look like he was from AND 1 or somethin, i thought it was hilarious i don't know if anyone remembers that commercial.

Mine currently has Andres Nocioni, because I'm a Bulls fan. I switch it often, with some of my favorite players, and I switch to my favorite college players and Bulls players, sometimes AI.

 

[TheFreshPrince]

Mines KG, being KG. I love this pic. It somes up KG's attitude perfectly. I doubt i'll change it for a while, maybe foye if he is a monster next year.

 

[Miami Flash City]

I've changed my avy alot, currently I got Wade holding the Finals MVP trophy....because I'm still celebrating hah.

 

[Midnight Green]

Mine needs no explanation the G.O.A.T….I had Chris Paul up for a while, but some people in the Bulls forum started liking it a little too much haha.

 

[Shard]

Cropped the best pic of Adam Morrison I could find because he is a personal favorite.

My avatar is inspired by the storm from the Neverending Story.......

[Bahir]

It's an old picture of me playing basketball. I had to cut and resize the image of course, so in the real picture, you can actually see me driving past a guy. And yes, in the middle of the winter in Sweden, you *are* that white.

Are you a Tool fan, oh and yeah I change my avatar alot but its usually Jimi Hendrix or Chilli Peppers cause they are amazing and really inspirational.

 

[Really Lost One]

My avy is of Jr Pinnock, who did great in the Summer League for the Lakers, and is 10xs more deserving of a roster spot than Aaron Mckie

 

[Voodoo Child]

Shannon Brown switched from #3 to #6 with the Cavs, and since I found an image of a 6 that was the same color as my name, I put it up there.

 

[Mr. J]

MLK was one of the most influential black men in history. Definitely someone I look up to.

 

[Bobcats]

Mine's pretty obvious. Just a pic of Eazy-E, the godfather of gangsta rap.

 

[Ming637]

The JBB Graphics team is too slow on their requests.

I had a Stephen Colbert avatar before. He has a really funny show on Comedy Central and he's a cool dude. But nobody knew who he was and it got kind of old so I made this Gilbert Arenas avatar. I'm starting to like Gilbert a lot because he is a pure underdog and doesn't get a lot of attention like other stars in the league do. He seems like a great guy and I really look up to him.

 

[Gee_Dupe11]

Mines is a Salim Stoudemire when he played for the Arizona Wildcats.....had to represent the Wildcats and the hair and im want to get a Sig of Throwback Sean Elliot at Arizona
