Who do you think is the veteran NBA player that still plays well?

I would say Sam Cassell. At his age, it is so wonderful how he can still stack up those 3's to provide fire power to his team.

I think I'll define an NBA Veteran as a player in the league who has been here 10 years or more.
I should say the best remaining veteran would be Tim Duncan of the San Antonio Spurs. Sure, he may not have Garnett's jumpshot, Iverson's crossover, or Shaq's power, but it is obvious that he's the one with the most accomplishments and currently the best leader among the lot. Three rings, Three Finals MVPs, 2 Season MVPs, and the list goes on and on and on for this 8-time All-Star. He's the best leader because just look at all his seasons through the years, trust me, HE NEVER HAD A SEASON WITH 50-minus wins, and this season shouldn't be any different either. He's also consistent night in and night out, and although he has a foot injury, he's still doing his best to play defense and help the team. And the Spurs have the second-best record in the league.
A close second would come Steve Nash, but since he still has no ring, I counted him out. This goes the same for AI, KG and Dirk. Shaq hasn't been so healthy and still isn't the same dominant Shaq we all loved in LA.

Miken would humiliate Mihm Wilt would dominate Ilgauskas Kareem would score 30 over Humphries Dr. J would take Outlaw to the hollow at will Russell would educate Camby what protection and rebounding are all about. Frazier would make Childress look like a baby McHale would own Bonner interior and out poultry would turn Kapono interior out. You more desirable ideal listen for your Grandpa, he's conscious more desirable then you actually supply him credit. Your speaking about Legends vs scrubs right here

Depends on your definition of veteran. If you consider length of time in the league and level of play, here is my list. From oldest to newest
Shaq
Sam Cassell
Steve Nash
