<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">[IMGl]http://www.nba.com/media/sixers/snapshot_235_050504.jpg[/IMGl]Spike TV and NBA Entertainment (NBAE) have teamed up to produce a new, original series delving into the behind-the-scenes world of various NBA first-year neophytes in ?NBA Rookies?. The six-episode series, premiering Friday, June 10 (9:00pm-10:00pm ET/PT) features got milk? Rookie of the Year Emeka Okafor (Charlotte Bobcats), and got milk? NBA All-Rookie Team members Dwight Howard (Orlando Magic), Andre Iguodala (Philadelphia 76ers), and Jameer Nelson (Orlando Magic). Other NBA rookies prominently featured include J.R. Smith (New Orleans Hornets), and Devin Harris (Dallas Mavericks). After a sneak-peek premiere during the opening week of the Finals on Friday, June 10, ?NBA Rookies? will assume its regular timeslot on Monday nights at 11:00pm ET/PT beginning Monday, June 13. ?We?re thrilled to team up with the NBA for a distinct series that we feel will resonate with our hoops-loving, guy audience,? remarked Kevin Kay, Executive Vice President, Programming and Production, Spike TV. ?NBA Rookies? will chronicle the roller-coaster journey that each of the featured subjects endures -- from the nervous anticipation of the NBA Draft to the arduous practices in training camp, to the early season struggles to the highly anticipated NBA All-Star events, to the late-season playoff push and beyond.</div> Full Story I'm definitely going to tune it (but that's only if I'm recovered from the hang over that I will get from the prom ). Nevertheless, I'm expecting to see some Rookie hazing. Picking up Iverson?s bags, buying Aaron Mckie's lunch and getting his hat stuffed with grapes (this really happened courtesy of the other A.I.) Emeka Okafor, Dwight Howard are also featured in this program. So keep your heads up on June 10, 9PM EST!
It makes it's debut tonight at 11:05 PM after WWE Raw. But the funny thing is that it was aired Friday night, so I already know happens in the show. Nevertheless, if you didn't catch it on Friday night it's being aired tonight. Personally, I liked it. Also, Iguodala has a brother, but the scary thing about it is that he can jump higher than Iguodala. Scary aint it?

Iguodala's brother is not on route to become a basketball player. I think I remeber Andre saying he does something with real estate or he may be a lawyer I'm not sure.

I guess leaper ability doesn't necessarily equal basketball success. Still its a shame though, talent wasted. By the way, Iguodala looks so weird in the picture above, likes he's really mad or a gorilla or something.
It seemed like there wasn't as much on Igoudala as the other players. I thought it was pretty interesting when they showed some rookie footage of veteran players in the beginning, especially where Oakley slapped Pippen; that was the best thing I've seen in a while. I also liked seeing the Sixers' draft room on draft day. It was a pretty relaxed vibe overall, and I thought it was pretty funny hearing their reactions when the Magic took Howard over Okafor. That would be a fun process to be apart of.
I caught a glimpse of it last night. It showed some of the early pics of Iggy in his childhood, pretty funny stuff. I gotta keep a better job on keeping track of the show.
Seems like a great show for NBA fans,I've read good things about it so I hope it is everything Im hoping it to be when I see it.
