Favourite NBA Player (1 Viewer)

NBA fans - who's your favourite basketball player of all time?

Mine are:

Michael Jordan - not only was he the master, Jordan also has charisma!
"When I first started the long road of basketball, what consumed me was being the best basketball player I can be" - cool!

Magic Johnson - I love his magic passes and sky-hooks. I also love the fact that he has a burning passion for the game!
"... Not just to be playing, not just to earn a lot of money... I want to win!" - yeah!

DR J

 

[reno2004]

retired:
Julius Erving (commonly known as DR. J)
MJ. I mean who doesnt like Mike
Wilt Chmaberlin. Now that is domination at its best. 100pt game

current:
T-mac. may not be able to carry a team, but can score like hell, both close up and from far
KG. closest to complete game at the present time
Stojakovic - best 3pt shooter except for Reggie Miller(i like him too)

Just thought i might add that Lebron and Vince Carter are gay. overrated, or at least until can be otherwise proven. I mean Carmello got Denver into the playoffs but Lebron didnt get the Cavs in there, yet everyone says Lebron is better.

in his early years, chamberlain carried his team alone every year to get dominated by russell's celtics (when they won all those championships in a row)

but when he went to the lakers, with jerry west and elgin baylor and all those other hall of famers they had, and they won 33 in a row

and he was a harlem globe trotter too

and i think you're being a bit harsh on lebron, c'mon they had ricky davis half their season lol

carmelo took the nuggets to the playoffs single handedly, but his support crew was a lot better than the cavs'

Lebron over-rated? hmm dunno about that, the potential is there definately. the skill,atheletisicm,shooting(getting there) and the court vision, when compared to VC he is leaps and bounds ahead. Carmelo has a better team to work with(camby,nene, and two decent guards andre miller voshan leonard)

 

[reno2004]

ok i guess carmello did have help from others, but for all the hype that followed Lebron around, u must admit it is not like he was far far better than carmello. they were about even. I think the rookie that deserves some credit is Dwayne Wade. In a normal year (as in, not so many good drafts), he would have gotten rookie of the year easy

 

[copious]

lebron doubled his teams overwall win rate and scored a 20-5-5. theres not much seperating lebron and carmelo, its just i reckon lebron has better court vision.

Dwayne wade might of won it in 2000/2001 when i think mike miller won it lol.
