Basketball - March 2007

Here's my take:
1. Vince Carter: No 6-6 guy has ever jumped higher or been more fearless above the rim. 360's were a walk in the park. Jumping over the 7-2 Frenchman will never be repeated. Carter is the best dunker ever - by a long shot.

2. Dominique Wilkins: I know I'll get some flak for putting him over Jordan. Wilkins was a one-diminensial offensive force, but boy could he get up and rattle the rim. He always delivered a good performance in Dunk Contests too.

3. Michael Jordan: Early in his career, Jordan could seemingly take off from anywhere and throw down on bigger men. Also, more than anyone else, his huge hands allowed him to wave the ball all over the place with one hand, which added to his dunking flair.

4. Dr. Julius Erving: The Godfather of the high-flying perimeter player. Erving was long and smooth and slithered to the hoop with a grace never replicated.

5. Kobe Bryant: The obvious heir to Dr. J. Kobe has the same fluidity. Less power, more ease.

Does everyone feel the same way about this? I think he's just too nice. They need more dicipline.

Purdue has no business moving onto the next round but of course they drew Arizona in the first round and we all know that Lute and the Gang can't win in the early rounds for anything. Betting against Arizona moving out of the first two rounds is the surest NCAA Tournament bet there is! Am I right or WHAT?!

They don't seem to be playing with any urgency against a terrible celtics team at home. I thought they were going to come out mad after blowing the last game against the suns.

He has impressed me as a player and as a motivator.

I'm not a VA Tech fan, but he is noteworthy in my book. He carries that team.

It seems like the whole USA stops just to watch some annoying overly long basketball tournament. I personally don't like it but it seems like im the only one. Doesn't anyone agree that the march madness is annoying?

Steve Nash sucks bad! He's at age 33, in his 11th season, and doesn't know how it feels to play in the NBA Finals. The last 2 MVP Awards he won was a GIFT & he didn't deserve them. Steve Nash is straight garbage! He'll never win a title or play in the finals! Nash sucks!

I think it's Ohio State, but there are other teams who could beat them. I know other people will disagree, that's fine, but that is my choise.
