I haven't bothered much with the Jordan Challenges either. I decided to try one and did the Last Dance on my first try, but that's it. I think I'll go back to these Jordan Challenges later on when I get bored of the rest of the game.

He's not as good as Kobe, but he's in the same ballpark.

Explain that to me, because that makes no sense whatsoever.

....and Wade/LeBron does not equal Kobe/Shaq, apparently. Nice find, btw.

The assist is an incomplete stat that only tells a portion of the whole picture. By definition, an assist is to help. So in basketball, to assist is to help a teammate score. Is passing the ball to them the only way you can help a teammate score? The assist needs to be redefined and expanded into perhaps more stats than one. Basketball is a team game after all, it would be nice if the stat keeper would reward all aspects of team play, not just one.

And plays the same position as Kenyon Martin, who's contract is expiring.

And concerning K-Mart, there is a reason the Nuggets brought in Al Harrington.

So when is Ty getting his first triple double?

So 96% of GMs think LA will win the Pacific Division. That means 1 GM in the entire league thinks they won't. I wonder who that is... the Clipper's GM perhaps? I agree.

Played my third game and finally scored. It was a step back triple off a Ben Wallace screen as the shot clock expired. I also got to the free throw line later that game when fouled driving to the hoop. So I had 5 points total on 1-4 shooting, and had 5 assists, 5 boards, and 1 steal. Not bad for a 41 overall. Apparently it was a "key" game, meaning my team was playing a rival opponent. You get double the skill points in these games.

It took me 3 combine games, got drafted by the Pistons in the second round. Played 4 summer circuit games, then played my first actual NBA game. They let you change the minutes and difficulty this time, and you can choose between default and simulation as part of the difficulty. I've played 2 NBA games so far on Hall of Fame, Simulation difficulty in 12 minute quarters. I come off the bench as a back up PG with about 12 minutes per game. I haven't scored a single point yet. Passing has been very easy, though. I got almost 10 assists at the half of one of the combine games, though I guess it's easier having Cousins and Turner on the same team. I average the most assists on the Pistons with 4 per game.

Who do you believe are the top 5 most athletic NBA players?

Well, the Knicks were definitely better last season. By 17 games to be exact, which so happens to be the same win differential as last year's Cavaliers (61 wins) and Bobcats (44 wins), and same differential as last year's Lakers (57 wins) and Grizzlies (40 wins).

Source I can imagine some line ups like: Nelson - Carter - Lewis - Gortat - Howard, or Nelson - Redick - Carter - Anderson - Bass. I can see them taking advantage of having possibly the best bench in the league to create completely different line ups.

This was not a suggestion for the WNBA, but for FIBA. The title is misleading. I don't understand the suggestion. It almost sounds like something the Onion would report. I hardly watch FIBA though, men or women, so it doesn't make that much of a difference to me anyway. I still disagree with it.

Kobe is way too good at breaking down defenders... he's probably the best of all time at that. He'd definitely beat LeBron one on one. Even considering that, I'd love to see the two go head to head. One on one with no teammates. It would be a great event at the all star game.

I believe Chris Paul is the best PG in the NBA. Comparing him an Rajon from a statistical standpoint, RR is about even with CP3 in assists, steals, and rebounds. What separates CP3, and the only thing that significantly separates him statistically, is free throw shooting and three point shooting, which also gives CP3 a better true shooting percentage. Scoring wise, Rajon is about as good of a slasher as Chris Paul, if not better because he still manages to score at the rim so well despite how much defenses sag on him. Add shooting to Rondo's game, and he's up there with CP3. Statistically, at least.

Source I actually don't think that's too far fetched of a statement... if he had a jumper. We'll see how far he's gotten on that part of his game.

Source Wall - Arenas - Morrison - Blatche - McGee? :o
