    That's awesome, I wish they still had a legends game during All Star Weekend instead of all these random, crappy gimmick contests.

    Yep, it would be fun to have the Legends Classic back on All Star Saturday!

    I would love to see a Legends vs Rookies game instead of Rookies vs Sophmores.

    If the NBA wants to keep promoting the Rookies vs Sophmores, I'll settle for a NBA Legends vs NBA Developmental League All-Star game.

    The young guys would crush the old guys. A better match up would be the WNBA all stars vs NBA Legends(over 45 of course). Heck make it fair, let Bob Cousy and Bill Russell play ;)

    lol, you're kidding right? the legends would get obliterated - they can't keep up with 19 year olds.

    Cabbage is right, they would get run off the court. But I do remember Kenny Smith saying Moses Malone (about 3 years) was honest to goodness still good enough to play 10mpg in the NBA after playing with him at Fonde. If it was a halfcourt game I would give the legends a shot.

    After watching that, the next center coach we need for Yao is Vlade to teach him how to handle and pass. Love Vlade's handle and passing even now with him looking like a tub-o-lard couch potato.

    Vlade can teach him things,but Yao's extraordinary height makes it hard for him to handle the ball like that.
