Hello to you all.I'm feeling special to become one of the members on this forum which i think is the best Laker forum.I was reading the forum for few months and i finally decided to make an account.
As you can all see i come from Macedonia (proubably the first member) and i'm supporting this franchise from 2000 and my best Laker moment was Robert Horry's 3 point game winner against Sacramento in 2002 Western Conference Finals.I remember i was watching the game with my brother arround 05:00 am -Macedonian time and woke our parents after the shot.
I'm looking forward discussing with you guys .

You hail from the land of Alexander the Great!
Let up hope your posting might meassure up to his military genius.
I would also wager that 98% of people on this form could not point to Macedonia on a map.
Nor name 2 of its neighboring countries....
If i can ask, how did you become a Laker fan?
Is there a Macedonian Basketball league?
Do you get the Turkish basketball league games on your local TV?
Welcome to the best Laker Forum in the world. Glad you chose to stay here. Keep posting. And as TKain said, we may not know where to pinpoint Macedonia immediately, but hey we're all in front of computers, so we can just google it. Just sayin.
Macedonia is a small country located in the central Balkan peninsula in Southeast Europe.

I can't remember how but proubably from my brother who is 8 years older from me and was also dieing Jordan and Kobe fan.In that time we had 2 games streaming on our local TV, one on friday and the other one on sunday.In the playoffs it was another story.Ofcourse there wasnt streaming on the internet.
Macedonian basketball league is low quality but after Macedonia riched the semi finals on the EuroBasket 2011 where they lost from Spain and Gasol, a lot of buisnessmans were interested in sponsoring our clubs and the league quality is now effectively increased and one of the clubs MZT Skopje is going to play in the ABA league (regional league) where play clubs like Partizan,Maccabi,Zagreb and itc.
On our local TV, no, but i follow Fenerbahce,Galatasaray and Efes in the Euroleague and i was a fan of Efes until our international player ,Vlado Ilievski lived the club this winter.
I would also like to share Macedonian biggest momentum with our National team against Lithuania in the 1/4 finals on the EuroBasket.Maybe some of you have seen this.We played in their own Arena against 16 000 people and beat them in the last seconds.

Lithuania had a good team too...
Basketball has really grown around the world the last 10-20 years.
