Im sick of all the haters out there when it comes to the NBA. These are just a few reasons why I love this game.
-Caron Butler
-Lebron's 48 Special against the Pistons last season
-The look in Kobe's eyes when he has the ball in isolation down by 1 with 5 seconds left
-Shaq's post game interviews
-Phil Jackson's quotes
-Marbury welcoming Yao to the NBA
-Isaih Thomas as a GM
-Isaiah Thomas as a player
-The 2004 Detroit Pistons
-Tim Duncan in the playoffs
-KG showing more intensity in a preseason game against the Bobcats than should be legally allowed. He definitely loves this game
-Dwight Howard being the perfect role model as a player and a person
-Charles Barkley on TNT, best analyst alive.
-Bill Walton AKA Grateful Red and the '77 Blazers
-Players like Jose Calderon playing the point about as efficiently as you can and people like Thug and Mac having no clue who they are
-Chris Bosh's All Star commercial
-Marcus Camby being the most underrated player of this decade
-Jason Kidd, noone has been funner to watch over the past 10 years and that includes Kobe, Bron, etc.
-Michael Jordan, say what you want about his stint with the Wizards, the man loves this game and that is the only reason he came back
-The NBA All Star game being one of the funnest weekends in sports of the year for me
-Chris Paul(Its a shame hes this far down on my list so far) having the best PG season anyone has had since Kidd got robbed of MVP his first season with the Nets.
-Allen Iverson throwing down 50 on the Lakers in game 1 of the 2001 Finals in a David vs Goliath matchup.
-Big Shot Rob(Or is it Cheap Shot Rob after last year vs the Suns?)
-Steve Nash running an offense is impossible not to appreciate if you love basketball
-The way Rip Hamilton moves without the ball
-I dont like TMac, but his 11 or 12 points or whatever in the last 30 seconds against the Spurs a few years back was ridiculous. They were down by like 10 or 11 and he hit like 4 or 5 three's to win the game
-David Stern's interviews. he is actually a very funny guy and a damn good commish
-Joakim Noah--- say what you want about his offensive skills but he is a competitor and leaves it all out on the court. Give me a Joakim Noah over a Zach Randolph any day.
-Skip to My Lou making the NBA and playing productive ball for the Rockets. A rarity.
-Golden State's home crowds during the playoffs last season. Now that is a fanbase I can appreciate.
-NBA Cares program, its not a PR move, alot of these guys genuinely care about humanity, I knows thats a shock to Thug and people of his ilk, but its true.
-Any buzzer beating three pointer, those are really damn exciting.
-Ben Wallace at the FT line. Highest of comedy
-Rasheed Wallace, one of the smartest players in the NBA. He can play on my team anyday.
-Paul Piece getting fouled really hard earlier this season(I forgot his opponent) and then going on a 10-0 run by himself.
-Chris Kaman being the ugliest badass in the league, and doing it with severe ADD.
-Karl Malone and John Stockton running a pick n roll.
-The Portland Trailblazers epitomizing what this game is really all about.
-Van Gundy hugging Alonzo's ankle...priceless
- Josh Smith... a very dumb player but extremely athletic, talented, and fun to watch. Any stat line would not surprise me from this guy.
-Tim Duncan's game 7 performance against the Pistons in the Finals a few years back. One of the most under talked about huge performances ever.
-Skiles reportedly punching Shaq in practice, thats just funny.
-All the young talent in this league, its more abundant then it has been in 10 years. The league has a ton of under 25 superstars led by Dwight and Bron, so sorry to all you guys that hate this league, its only going to get stronger and better, and you need to start noticing players like that, not Zach Randolph and Darius Miles.
