1. Shaq: Love the guy, great on the court and just as good off. You know how he be's, he's been doing the same thing since 1992.
2. Lebron: I think he's going to be the best player in the league once it's said and done, so dominating and fun to watch. I also think he's a good guy, unlike other big super stars *cough* Kobe *cough*
3rd one is tough...
3. Karl Malone: Lots of guys I could put here, but I loved the Mailman's game. A lot like mine, great passing big who could shoot and run the floor. I feel really bad for him too, he played at the same time as Jordan and let Rodman get in his head (no chance for him to win.) Then he goes to LA and screws himself up against the T-wolves and the Lakers don't have a back up PF and DET wins because Sheed exploits it big time. He should have a ring, but I always thought he was a good guy.
Honorable Mention: Mutombo <33, Rodman, Bruce Bowen, Dwade, Yao, Artest, and T-mac.

1. John Stockton: If Jason Kidd and Steve Nash had a baby, you'd have John Stockton. Or if Jason Kidd and Steve Nash were brothers, John Stockton would be the father. In my opinion, greatest pure PG ever.
2. Kenyon Martin: Everytime he dunks, it seems like the rim is going to break. And then he pops his collar after. Can you say "swagger"? His blocks are nice too, but he doesn't play like that no more.
3. LeBron James: The guy is 6'8", 240 lbs, and can play every position. And he's not even in his prime yet. He's fast, he's strong, he's the total package. And he didn't even need to go to college for it.
Honourable Mention: Jason Williams, Kobe Bryant, Morris Peterson, Yao Ming and Kevin Garnett.

1-Steve Nash--He made me fall in love with basketball and the suns he is the best player to watch when he is going and no one could stop him offensivly.
2-Magic Johnson--I am a big fan of the large guard he Magic just is that man the way he passed scored the way he did everything was just so cool to watch best point guard to ever play the game in my mind.
3-Kevin Garnett--Love the man i love his energy i love how much he loves his basketball and he always gets the best out of himself night in night out and always try's to get the best out of his team mates.

1. Brandon Roy: He rox. 2. LaMarcus Aldridge: I held him higher than Roy, potential-wise, and one point. He's still good, but Roy has cleared any chance of that happening. 3. Dwight Howard: He's ownage. He can't be stopped yo.

1. you guys already know
2. Tim Duncan: he's a guy that I model my game after, even though I am only 5'7 whenever I play basketball I struggle a lot from the perimeter and do well down low so I try to model Duncan's game the best. He is a great player, a true professional, and a true role model for all athletes. There's a LOT OF THINGS I don't agree with about what Skip Bayless says, but I AGREE WITH ONE THING TIM DUNCAN IS TRULY THE MOST UNDER APPRECIATED ATHLETE EVER.
3. Ronny Turiaf: He is someone I admire after I heard about his heart troubles I was hoping he would be alright even if he never played basketball ever again cause he is one of those good guys in the NBA that plays till the last play, I love the enthusiasm and the heart and guile he plays with, and also I try to play with the same energy he does in anything. He is one of those guys who you want in your locker room because he is someone that can energize a team not someone like Terrell Owens who destroy teams (sorry CHA).

1. Micheal Jordan: I'm a Bulls fan, when I was younger I loved watching him play. Watching him dunk amazed me. I used to try and copy his dunks on a mini net with my tongue sticking out. 2. Derrick Rose: He was my favourite player when he was playing with the Tigers, and my favourite team got him. He is my favourite current NBA player, he's gonna have great career. I have Rashard Lewis and Dwayne Wade tied for 3rd place. 3. Rashard Lewis: I always liked this guy, he's a big man who can dunk and shoot 3-pointers. I love using him in 2K9, always wanted him to be a Bull. 3. Dwayne Wade: He's crazy good, love watching this guy play. I put him up there with LeBrone and Kobe. Wish he was on the Bulls. Rose and Wade? I drool at the thought.

1. Nate Robinson - Any guy who is generously listed at 5'9 and still wins dunk contests just requires ridiculous athleticism. I love rooting for the little guy, and Nate's just a great guy to root for.
2. Kobe Bryant - I hate LeBron, therefore i root for Kobe. But, i enjoy smacking people in 2k9, and Kobe is just a straight up glitch.
3. Steve Nash - Stevie for 3, All i can do is basketball is shoot, so i enjoy watching a guy who can just straight drain em.

Turiaf is really underrated I agree, and he plays with a lot of passion. I thought him or Milsap would be great as the Rockets PF (even before Milsap was putting up #'s.)

1. Deron Williams - Hes an Illini 2. Derrick Rose - "The Thorn" is the most electrifying player the bulls have had since MJ. 3. Johan Petro - If you have been in this league for awhile, you will know the running joke behind him.

1. Michael Redd, My favorite player ever because of sim leagues. He's been a true sniper his entire career and i've seemed to have him in every sim league i've ever been a part of. One day he'll win himself a championship, guaranteed.
2. Juan Dixon, My favorite player from 2002 whenever he led the Terps to a NATIONAAL CHAAAAAAMPIIIIOONNSSSHIPPP! This is about the time I really started getting into basketball and just fell in love with JD3.
3. Gilbert Arenas, A man off the court as well as on the court. He does it all, came from being a nobody to being one of the best. Uses this all against his opponents as well, and I love that about him.
