    Wow. No love for Iverson? The same guy that's been selling out tickets at home like CRAZY up until last season or so. This is the very same guy that draws the most attendance on the road in the NBA. More than LeBron, Kobe, VC, T-Mac, Wade, Nash etc. When the Sixers go on the road they draw tge most attendance. Why? AI.

    This is really all a matter of personal preferences. I personally like watching Shaq play the most. Those Laker Dynasty years, o boy was he something to watch. Perfect combination of size, power, and agility. HE isn't nearly as exciting now, but I still think he is the funnest player to watch in the league. Gotta stay true.

    To the average fan thoguh I think that Kobe, Wade, LeBron, AI are all the most popular in this.

    I think a big reason that the Sixers get a lot of road attendence is because fans want to watch their team go against a team that won't murder them, but will entertain them as well. THe Sixers are a pretty entertaining team and they are not nearly a powerhouse team that will murder those road teams. I know when I'm buying tickets to a Sixers game I never want to buy it against Detroit or someone who I am pretty sure will murder the Sixers. I want to see the Sixers win, but in an exciting way so I'm not going to go with the Hawks or someone.

    I'm sure the Lakers are up there in road attence as well, am I right?

    AI is exciting but not nearly as much as Kobe. My opinion anyways, when I watch the Lakers play I turn to watch only Kobe dosent matter who they play against and no matter how much they are winning or loosing by. Its still exciting cuz you never know what hes going to do.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quoting phunDamentalz:</div><div class="quote_post">All-excitement team:
    GUARDS: Nash, Kobe, Bench: Tony Parker, Manu, Chris Paul
    FORWARDS: RJ, Jermaine Bench: AK47, Boris Diaw, Shawn Marion
    CENTERS: Amare Bench: Marcus Camby
    Just missed the cut: Jamal Crawford, Jason Richardson

    All-boredom:
    GUARDS: You can't really be a guard in this league and be completely boring to watch.
    FORWARDS: Any Blazers forward.
    CENTERS: Michael Olowokandi. No bench player needed. Watching this guy play for 48 minutes would be too boring to substitute any one else.</div>

    Jamal Crawford? and you didn't even mention Iverson. When you guys play ball you're all probably big men, I mean just think, a 6 FOOTER averaging 30+ points...

    That kind of stuff doesn't come around every 5 years. But in a good 5 years I think Dwyane will have replaced him as an undersized scorer.

    Exactly. I don't think people attend games based on whether or not their team will get blown out or not. If that was the case Detroit on the road wouldn't generate any attendance. People just want to see the superstars.
