    "Players To Watch"

    I found this kind of funny...

    NBA Players To Watch In 2006-07
    Now that the NBA season is underway, Onion Sports clues you in on the players to watch as the 2006-2007 season unfolds.

    1. Mike Bibby: The formerly short Sacramento guard stands at over eight feet tall tihs year, though skeptics believe he is wearing an extra-baggy Kings jersey while perched atop Ronnie Price's shoulders.

    2. Antoine Walker: Announced plans to shoot the ball whenever it touches his hands, including defensive rebounds, inbounds passes and when signing them for fans.

    3. Ron Artest: On December 18th, a referee is going to suggest that Artest tie his shoes, prompting him to go absolutely crazy on everyone.

    4. Grant Hill: Because this intelligent AllStar doesn't have the speed he once had, look for HIll to stifle his opponents by talking to them about George Kennan, the architecht of the Cold War containment policy.

    5. Rasheed Wallace: Recently said that, although getting technical fouls is something he likes to do and that it feels good, it is something he can 'totally quit' any time he wants.

    6. Steve Francis & Stephon Marbury: Though both players have decided to share the ball more often, this may lead to multiple shot clock violations as they spend the entire time passing back and forth to one another.

    7. LeBron James: Production will be down this year as James suffers from a quarter life crisis and averages 29 points per game.

    8. J.J. Reddick: Look for this former Duke standout to end his career by either suffering life-threatening injuries ina motor-vehicle crash or y being a poor basketball player.

    9. Adam Morrison: Look for this rookie who is not from Duke to have a great season and NBA career.
