    very tough, i will go with micheal jordan, becaus he has much more artistic flair and better footwork. the jump stop is indeed better, it gives u more options on offense.

    who will win the battle royale this coming season, LAKERS or HEAT

    Drugs, obviously. Since when has girls ruined a player's career? Ah, Chamberlain and Magic. They already had a hall of fame career when they banged tons of chicks. [​IMG]

    Pau Gasol or AK47?

    ^Did you forget Kobe? Kobe still produced last season but it's because he's one of a kind. I believe if it had happened to another player, that player must have pissed in his pants trying to play after being emotionally and physically drained from being in the court.

    For your question, I'd choose Pau Gasol, he plays down low and can be more reliable down the stretch, while AK47 may be more versatile, his game is a face up to the basket, he creates off the dribble and results in more turnovers.

    Who is more valuable for his team: Marquis Daniels or Shareef Abdur Rahim?

    Shareef Abdur Rahim. He was one of the main reasons why the trailblazers were on the playoff hunt.

    Chauncy Billups or Rip Hamilton?

    Chauncey Billups. He's a leader, motivator, and he's simply better. That's why he was the Finals MVP. Richard Hamilton is like Peja. He can't be as productive if he didn't have as good of a team.

    Billups or Cassell?

    Cassell. better shooter in clutch, better leader, better passer, EXPERIENCE, and lol "better looking"

    pupmelo, when u end ur dribble, u can do so by jumping slightly into the air and landing on two feet. that is the jumpstop. u can also take 2 steps forwards to end your dribble(e.g on a layup) and that is the 2-step. the jumpstop is better and why?
    imagine going into the paint. the 2-step allows u to shoot off one feet(floater, layup,) or dish the rock. the jumpstop, on the other hand, allows for pivoting, giving u options of posting and finishing with a hook or power move. also u can shoot a jumper, escpecially fade aways, or juz go for the layup. hope this helps [​IMG]

    ok lol this is a classic, who is the worst bas****, spike lee or reggie

    Kobe/Shaq, if clyde was in his prime, he and hakeem would have won, but since he was getting old, i have to go with the lakers tandem.

    better suited for the all star spot - vince or p.pierce (pls dont give vince the vote juz becoz he is a better highlight dunker)

    We don't know yet...Paul Pierce because his team makes the playoffs...vince is more fun to watch.

    Tim Hardaway's killer cross over or AI's cross over?

    <div class="quote_poster">Quoting yanix:</div><div class="quote_post">sorry but i'll have to go w/ vince... all star's should be entertaining.

    MJ or Reggie Miller?</div>

    clutch is clutch...you can't have more or less...it's to make the right descisions during the crucial closing seconds of the game. They are both clutch. I'm goin' to have to go with MJ because he doesn't just hit the shots, he also rebounds, blocks, and steals when it counts (Utah Finals, "last shot").

    But Miller wow...6 seconds? WOW...I don't remember MJ hittin' a game winning 3 constantly.

    Reggie is more scarier because he got the 3 point shot...I mean you can't get too physical because he's gonna shoot 3 freethrows..and guarding the perimeter is risky because Reggie can also just spot with a mid-range J...very quick release...An Overall better shooter/freethrow shooter as well.

    MJ, very athletic..don't know what he's going to do...Is he gonna shoot, drive in, pass, etc...And it's hard to stop a shot when a guy is like 4 feet off the ground..or when he can just slam it on your face.

    They are both clutch...it's a draw...They are both clutch in their fortay, in their most prominent aspects of their game.

    Jordan got heart, Miller got balls...it's a draw.

    Thanks man [​IMG] I actually see jumpstop all the time as it is my friend's fave move but I just wasn't sure what to call it. I prefer the two step than jumpstop cuz two step allows you to create in the air too, like you said a player can dish, layup, float, or do a reserve lay or dunk while you get much less options with a jumpstop. But I agree it is a power move, it works very effectively for some guys, it just ain't my style :P Thanks anyway man.


    <div class="quote_poster">Quoting Prodigy:</div><div class="quote_post">Tim Hardaway's killer cross over or AI's cross over?</div>

    AI's crossover and it's not even close! AI is much quicker with the ball than Timmy... he's a joy to watch but Tim's ain't a chopped liver either.


    I want to be an owner of: New York Knicks...OR...Los Angeles Lakers

    If there was no salary cap: New York Knicks, just from the fact that with New York being the biggest market in the world a la Yankees, I can basically buy off any player at no expense and create a dream team.

    salary in tact: Los Angeles Lakers. a team having so much history in it that is unparalleled (Excluding boston red sox, yankees, boston celtics, montreal canadiens) is too good of an offer to pass up. Besides, you get Kobe on the team.


    F/F: best NBA players wife - Vanessa Laine or Joumana Kidd?
