from old playas i like Pat Ewing very much, MJ and Charles Barckley and Zo! for present times My man is Wade! since he joined the league - i knew - he'll be the best! also in my top 5 are E.Curry, Shaq, melo and Zo! Curry is the future one of the best power man in the league and i like he's play very much!

Grabbing 2 rebounds doesnt make him the best big man sorry buddy but Curry is nothing more than a part time scorer.


My all time favourite player is Carmelo Anthony he changed the Denver Nuggets and will always be remembered by Nuggets fans.

yeah, good choice although i think he has a bit of a short temper. and i agree with you about eddie curry, he isnt that good. and i think he is a little bit overweight aswell.

i know, and i told ya that he's an offencive force, not difencive!! i know that he's rebounding is time to time good or bad! but he has some power and he's good at offence!

My all time favourite player is...hmm...maybe Steve Francis..when i start to play basketball i want to be like him..but he cant be all time favourite maybe Magic Johnson.

oh, ok then. I am not from the Magic Johnson ERA, so i cant comment on that at all. although i know that he is one of the best in history.

My favorite of all time would have to be Michael Jordan, I grew up watching the Bulls but lost interest when he retired and the Bulls disappeared. When I got interest in basketball back, I loved Paul Pierce and Tracy McGrady. I followed the Detroit Pistons alot and liked Richard Hamilton. I also followed Carmelo when he was in HS and wasn't to happy about him playing in Denver because I never liked them, but he was still one of my favorites. Right now I still really like Carmelo and T-Mac. In college I my favorite player is no doubt Kevin Durant, but I like Jeff Green and Julian Wright as well. I liked Clyde Drexler and Scottie Pippen back in the day too.

EDIT: Wrote Carmelo instead of Durant...

LOL, this thread is your life.

There's a fine line between writing a comment and spamming. make sure it stays on topic please before this turns into spam fest 07.

Make sure your replies are relevant to the subject, not just basic responses that don't further develop the topic at hand. Otherwise it will be considered spamming, which is against the forum rules.

To get this back on topic:

Favourite player is Steve Nash. Play a bit of PG my self, and he is the player I wish to emulate the most. While weak at the defensive end, his silky passes, fine shooting form and control of the Suns offense is amazing. Wish he played for the Bucks, as having Nash set up CV, Redd and Bogut would be phenomenal to watch, sadly he doesn't.

yeah, good point. Nash would have to be one of(if not the best) passer of all time

For some reason I like Derek Anderson, Maurice Taylor, and then Big Ben.

I like the Admiral,the old Shaq,and the old Payton. for present players I go with T-Mac and Wade.

my all-time favorite is number 31 miller because of his three point shooting and stockton
because of his passing my current favorite is number 41 nowitzki

Ray Allen is one of my all time favorites.

Flite's was very close to my views, so i edited (in bold) it a lil

My favorite of all time would have to be Michael Jordan, I grew up watching the Bulls but lost interest when he retired and the Bulls disappeared. I follow the Detroit Pistons alot and like Richard Hamilton and Chauncey Billups. My favorite college players are my Tennessee Vols (thats the university i attend). I liked Grant Hill and Scottie Pippen back in the day too.
