Outside the Rockets players, who is your favorite NBA player

current guys: francis,peja, reggie, iverson, nash,kg.

 

GIIIIIIIIINOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOBBBBBBBBBLIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Michael Jordan

 

Current :

Shaq - he's a big oaf that likes to have fun. I think deep down he knows he's not the player he once was, but in his prime he was the most dominant player on offense short of Jordan.

Duncan - just gets the job done and seems like one hell of a classy guy. You have to respect the blue collar guy out to get his work done.

Past :

Magic - Nobody with a smile like that should be able to carve you up on defense and yet he did. He's one of the few players you watched play where it seemed like a kid's game to them and not a profession. You could tell he really enjoyed it.

Jordan - The greatest basketball player I've seen play (with Magic possibly a close second or maybe even better - I waffle on this so much). There's not a player I've watched that has combined offense with defense with heart with the competitiveness or passion for the game this guy had. There have been pretenders to the throne : Vince, Kobe, TMac (sorry - not yet, if ever), etc. but none have come remotely close. And now we have this Lebron guy who seems intriguing and bears watching.

 

1. Wade
2. LBJ
3. Shaq
4. AI
5. Francis

 

1. Alonzo Mourning (have followed his entire pro career since '92).
2. Steve Francis

 

I love watching Iverson in person, no one is faster. He runs backwards quicker than anyone else on the floor does forwards.

I love watching Dirks game (go ahead, hate me). The guy will take it inside or pull up for 3 (I love watching him run a break and just pulling up at a random spot for a three....a thing of beauty).

I love watching Nash too. They way he gives the ball to anyone and everyone. Fun.

Ofcourse, if you like basektball, LBJ and DWade are just so much fun to watch.

 

Kevin GARNETT

 

I have always liked Grant Hill.
I like Tim Duncan, Dirk, Nash, KMart, KG, and Wade. Of all the "new" players, Wade impresses me the most, Manu, next.

 

ditto that and add Wade & Nash (sorry, he's fun to watch !)

as for lesser players (mostly guys I follow and reach for in fantasy bball) -
Hughes
Bosh
Richardson
Carter
Kidd

 

jon barry and scottie brooks...and garnett since he shares the same birthday as me.

 

Old School:
Jordan
Magic
Rodman

Current:
AI
Nash
Amare

 

Kevin Garnett
Lebron James
AK47
Ron Artest (I don't care if he's crazy. That guy is amazing on a basketball court)

 

My List

Jason Kidd - doesnt have the height or athletic ability of most NBA superstars but made up for it with intelligence and leadership. Its really too bad his stock has been falling because of injury/age. Was a consumate leader and made everyone around him better.
KG - One hell of a BB player his heart, passion for the game and his overall abilities makes him one of the most interesting players to watch. Very underrated for most of his career then seems to blow up. This guy can play all 5 positions truly the most versatile player in the league.
Duncan - Classy player, total professional and he just gets the job done. I think Yao could learn alot from watching Duncan in that they have similar builds and attributes.. neither is quick or freakishly athletic but effective and efficient.
