It's surprising that I haven't heard of any of you on TV as "The Future of the NBA". :wink:

My game is like Pips is now. His game is so smooth he dosen't do any thing real spectacular buy gets the job done. That is me right there. He also at 6'8'' can dribble the ball well. I'm 6'3'' and play againt a lot of people and most are shorter than me and the ones that are as tall as me don't have my handle.

well, here goes, without any names...

    :arrow: i'm the leader of the team (not in points)
    :arrow: i'm a SF, the best rebounder, passer in my team(~10rebs; ~8assists)
    :arrow: inside scoring is my game and in few years i'll dunk like hell!!!
    :arrow: good on the FT line
    :arrow: i like to draw of. fouls (just like nba live 2003)
    :arrow: i'm not a good 3pt shooter, but when the game is on the line then i can make those shots
    :arrow: i really like to set picks


:|

maybe you can tell me a NBA player who i resemble the most

:)

I'm like a short Dirk Nowitzki with a better passing game (for my level anyway)... probably more of a Hedo Turkoglu

thanks dude!

lets be honest...

I get about as many minutes as Zan Tabak used to...
when I do play, I play as follows:
Rebound like Steve Kerr or any european centre
Pass like Armon Gilliam
Shoot free throws like... Ben Wallace or Shaq
Dunk like Stock
Shot selection of a young Antoine Walker or Larry Hughes
Leaping ability of Larry Bird in his current state
As many post moves as Marcus Camby
Joe Wolves quickness
My jumpshot is consistent like Ben Wallaces
I have the grace and move up and down the court like the Shawn Kemp of today...
I understand the game as well as Yinka Dare
I fill in box scores like Grant Hill (DNP)
I handle the ball like a centre from the 60's
I defend like... well I don't defend.
I have physical toughness like Marcus Camby also
I have the mental toughness of Frank Brickowski
I talk trash like Dikembe... and I catch the ball like him too
I have the determination and would to anything to win just like Sir Charles (yes I too eat doughnuts on the stationery bike)
I also stole Patrick Ewing's shooting style whenever I shoot beyond 20 feet, anything closer to the basket and my shooting style resembles that of a cross between Bill Cartwright's action and Sam Perkins air time on his jumper.
I never travel in the post... NEVER, because I'm like Marcus Camby, I have no moves.
I have Spree's temper and ability to take criticism
I have Horace Grant's ability to take a verbal beating (ie crying during a time out)
I can disappear like Chris Webber!
In heated situations, I can take it on the chin! Just like Kobe
I make sure I provide for my team, and live up to my contract, just like Yogi, Juwon, Vin, Rod etc...

:oops:

I understand the game as well as Yinka Dare

:lol: haha, I fell off my chair when I saw that one.

Fri Jan 03, 2003 4:41 am

Thanks Stevan, I've been waiting for that...

Fri Jan 03, 2003 5:12 am

Looks like Stevan's got ups. :lol:

Fri Jan 03, 2003 5:17 am

On a serious note, I think why we compare ourselves to stars and not bechwarmers is because we know how the stars play. The 12th man on Phoenix may have the same game I do but I have no clue who the hell that is so we cant compare, people just look for someone who excells in their best aspect and compare themselves.

Mark Madsen

+
Have the team first mentality of Tracy McGrady
A FG percentage that closely resembles what Shaq's FT percentage would be if he shot with his tongue
The wife beating abilities of J-Kidd
The rap skills of Mark Madsen
The dance moves of the above

I am the clone of Mark Price, with longer baggier shorts

Sat Jan 25, 2003 3:57 am

Someone once told me that i was like Chris Mullin.

I used to hit a lot of baseline jumpers and at that time we had similar haircut.

Sun Jan 26, 2003 12:53 am

Think about Rodman with a great shooting and dribbling ability.
thats my dream.

Mon Jan 27, 2003 8:54 pm

I remind myself to be MJ with a 3 point shot. But tell me what you think:

:arrow: awesome 3 point shooter
:arrow: awesome FT shooter
:arrow: awesome shooter overall
:arrow: i led my team in rebounding (8-10rpg)
:arrow: leading shot blocker (2-5bpg)
:arrow: best defender on team (and getting better every year)
:arrow: leading scorer
:arrow: team leader
:arrow: go to guy
:arrow: wants to be the best player I can be

hey troy, how old are you and which ball club u play for??

Tue Jan 28, 2003 1:42 am

He's probably a 6'3 11 year old playing in the under 9's

Tue Jan 28, 2003 3:04 am

no i was actually being serious
coz i talk to him all the time, just neva talked about ball
i was just wondering

...

Tue Jan 28, 2003 6:48 am

Ok, I finally figured it out:

    :arrow: I shoot like Travis Knight
    :arrow: Pass like Chris Mihm
    :arrow: Rebound like Eric Montross
    :arrow: Drive to the basket like Steve Kerr
    :arrow: As quick as Wang Zhi Zhi
    :arrow: Have a hook shot of Shawn Bradley
    :arrow: I see the open court like Chris Dudley
    :arrow: Reject shots like Dikembe Mutombo
    :arrow: Have a cross-over of Yao Ming
    :arrow: I make my team better like Toni Kukoc does
    :arrow: Drop treys like Bruno Sundov
    :arrow: Steal opponent's ball like Joel Przybilla
    :arrow: Of course, let's not forget, I work as hard as Greg Ostertag

True, I am a pure center, but I am currently playing SF/SG because of my height. :wink:

Wed Jan 29, 2003 7:34 am

no i was actually being serious

So was I.

And on that last post by Ljamaj or whatever... it's been done

Fri Jan 31, 2003 11:41 pm

let's see, i think im like J Kidd with a few exceptions

*i'm not a v good dribbler like Kidd, i rely on my right hand only (that's cos i haven't practiced dribbling in 4 months thus losing my left hand)
*i can't run the break like Kidd, i'm fastest in league but my dribbles kinda restrict me, and besides i like to play halfcourt bball
*my FG% is around 50% and 3pt around 40%
*i don't get as many steals as Kidd, but i block around 2 shots per game (usually on fastbreaks or coming as help from the weak side)


similarities
*passing is what we love to do
*we score when necessary
*we are team leaders (i'm assistant coach :D )
*we are bigger than other PG's
*our teams cannot win without us (my coach rarely pulls me out of a game, i average 46mpg, when im benched there's no passing or movement just erratic shooting)
*defense is not a chore
*both team MVP's, both League RU MVP's

Fri Jan 31, 2003 11:43 pm

one more thing, rather than driving to the bucket i do than lane running jumper that Steve Nash does, man i love that shot

Ben Wallace
