    Your Favorite Players

    Who are some of your favorite players that used to be or still are in the league? Whether they were some of your favorite players to watch, or it was the effort they brought forward making them a fan favorite for your squad?

    Kobe (by default :/)
    LeBron James
    Rudy Gay
    Paul Pierce
    James Harden
    Joakim Noah - HOW CAN YOU NOT!
    Chris Paul
    Russell Westbrook - My senior year in High School I went to UCLA to go play ball over the summer but some NBA players were there running a few games, maybe like 5-6 players were there and Russell, who was I believe a sophomore, but entering the draft, had this sequence where he got a rebound a went coast to coast, side stepped Trevor Ariza, and threw down some ridiculous two hander. Of the 15-20 of us who were there, there wasn't anyone who wasn't screaming. From that day forward, Westbrook has been one on my fav's.
    Taj Gibson
    Manu
    Paul George
    Matt Barnes
    Jrue Holiday - I actually played against him and his brother in high school, it's funny cause Jrue played the 2-3. But we also had the barber, and I didn't know it was him until he came in (they rolled up in a bucket). When I found out he was going to be a Bruin, as much as I love USC, I had to follow his career.
    Brandon Roy - His game is smooth; haven't seen him with the Wolves though
    Nick Young

    Too many players for a favorite players list??? Hah

        John Havlicek- Because he never stopped moving.

        Oscar Robertson- Because of his fundamental yet powerhouse gameplan.

        Lenny Wilkens- Because he was so smart and so smooth.

        Dave DeBusschere- Because he was the finest defender to ever man the 4 spot.

        Julius Erving- Because he was the best finisher of all time.

        Earl Monroe- Because of his unmatched creativity.

        Larry Bird- Because of his incredible anticipation.

        Michael Jordan- Because he set the standard for two way brilliance.

        Willis Reed- Because of his courage and heart.

          CP3 Big time fan after watching the Olympics!
          Z-Bo, not overly physically talented, but I love his motor
          Hakeem, watching him was like watching an artist paint his masterpiece, dude was living art
          Shaq-still not sure how someone so massive could be so swift on their feet
          Payton/Kemp Defense and ally oops alllll day
          Vince Carter...greatest dunker ever
          Pistol Pete wish he could have played longer!
          Penny watching him drew me in as a fan, only thing that came close to his smoothness, was his shoes xD


          Honorable mention:

            Of all the players I missed out on watching, I think Pistol Pete and Drazen Petrovic would be at the top.

              Dražen, Kobe... Both by default :P Then LeBron (hated him for The Decision but starting ti like him more and more... plays with such ease it's redicilous), T-Mac, Half Man Half Amazing Vince Carter, Allen Iverson, Kyrie Irving, Durantula and Manu Ginobili.

                        Wow, totally forgot about Bobby Jackson. I used to hate that guy with a passion.... I hated all those Kings players, Scott Pollard, Hedo, Peja, Christie, Gerald Wallace... Man those Kings teams were heavy. Sad to see that didn't last...

                        EDIT: Eh, no I'm not ha.

                          As of now my favorites are:
                          Kyrie Irving - Fun to watch, he is a top priority to watch for me.
                          Melo
                          and Ron artest.

                          Before:
                          C-Webb - Exciting to watch in his prime. Sucks that he didn't get a ring.
                          Hakeem Olajuwon - I love watching him play on the offensive side and defensive side too. Really exciting and efficient player.

                            And Shawn Marion. He does all the dirty work.

                              Dirk Nowitzki has always been my favorite player to watch, although it's been a rough year for him.

                              This year it's been CP3.

                              Honorable Mention: Rajon Rondo
                              Kenny Bell with quote of the year: "I would play for Bo Pelini against Satan himself and a team of demons at the gates of the underworld."
