The purpose of this FAQ is to update the ratings of the players in the game, to make them as accurate as possible, as well as to represent what they have accomplished during the 2006-2007 season, and to educate readers a bit on the NBA’s history. Any updates to player ratings or major changes to the FAQ will be listed in the Updates section. Check it whenever a new version comes out. *********************************************************************** II. Legal Information This FAQ/Guide was made 100% by me, John Markisch (Rashidi).

Version Updates Version 1.1 (6/20/07) I updated EVERY player and made the guide compatabile for next-gen (which means more updates next year now that all the data input and cleaning is out of the way). It’s been a long four months… truly gratifying nowthat it’s finally over… on second thought, the draft is in a week… Also, I’m still looking for help on a website and/or getting employed by 2K Sports! Version 1.0 (2/3/07) The guide was ultimately delayed because my computer crashed. I had not yet backed up this guide to disk so I had to get the files off of my hard drive and onto my new computer. It’s good to be back in business.

How do the ratings work? First, what are the rating categories? Rate (Overall Rating) Close (Shot Close) Med (Shot Medium) 3pt (Shot 3pt) FT (Free Throw) Layup (Layup) Dunk (Dunk) DnkRng (Dunk Range) – hidden rating DnkSt (Dunk Standing) – hidden rating Handle (Ball Handling) Pass (Pass) OffCl (Offense Clutch) – hidden rating Sh/Ps (Shoot or Pass) – hidden rating PostOff (Low Post Offense) PostDef (Low Post Defense) Def (Defense) – hidden rating Block (Block) Steal (Steal) DefCl (Defense Clutch) – hidden rating RebOff (Offensive Rebounding) RebDef (Defensive Rebounding) Speed (Speed) Stam (Stamina) Dur (Durability) DefAwr (Defensive Awareness) OffAwr (Offensive Awareness) Close Tendency (Shot Close Tendency) Med Tendency (Shot Med Tendency) 3pt Tendency (Shot 3PT Tendency) Drive Tendency (Drive Tendency) Dunk Tendency (Dunk Tendency) Now, what do the ratings do? Overall Rating – The numerical average of the player’s total collection of abilities. Not all ratings are equal. Some affect overall more than others, and some don’t affect it at all. Some ratings are also more important to certain player positions than others, and thus have more of an impact on overall. Close Shot – Two-point shooting accuracy (inside the paint). Medium Shot – Two-point shooting accuracy (outside the paint). 3pt Shot – Three-point shooting accuracy. Free Throw – Free Throw shooting accuracy. Layup – Layup accuracy, frequency, and creativity. Dunk – Dunk accuracy, frequency, and creativity. Dunk Range – The distance from which a player can dunk. Dunk Standing – Tall players can dunk when underneath the basket regardless of a low dunk rating. Ball Handling – Determines how effective a player will be at using Isomotion crossovers. A higher rating also makes it harder to steal the ball from the player. Pass – Determines the accuracy and speed of passes made by the player. A higher rating also makes it harder to steal passes from the player. Offense Clutch – Determines how much better a player will perform offensively in clutch situations (The 4th Quarter and OT). Shoot or Pass – This rating determines how frequently a player will look to shoot when they have the ball. A high rating means they will look for their shot, while a low rating means they will usually pass off. Post Offense – Effectiveness of offensive post moves. Post Defense – Effectiveness of defending a player in the post. Defense – Block – Ability to block the opponent’s shot. Steal – Ability to steal the ball from the opponent, or pick off a pass. Defense Clutch – Determines how much better a player will perform defensively in clutch situations (The 4th Quarter and OT). RebOff – Ability to grab offensive rebounds. RebDef – Ability to grab defensive rebounds. Speed – How fast the player runs down the court. Stamina – The rate of which players grow tired. Durability – Resistance to injury. Players with low Durability will suffer injuries more frequently, and the injuries will me more serious. Defensive Awareness – Determines how effective a player will execute in defensive plays. Offensive Awareness – Determines how effective a player will execute in offensive plays. Shot Close Tendency – How often the CPU will attempt close shots with a player. Shot Med Tendency – How often the CPU will attempt med shots with a player. Shot 3PT Tendency – How often the CPU will attempt 3pt shots with a player. Drive Tendency – How often the CPU will attempt to drive with a player. Dunk Tendency - How often the CPU will attempt dunks with a player. *********************************************************************** VI. The ratings Ratings will be done in descending order, from highest overall, to lowest overall. This should work best, because the top players are the ones most of you will want to edit first. Doing it by team is bad, because players change teams a lot, especially in the offseason. If you want to find the ratings for specific players, Ctrl + F is your best friend. Press the Ctrl key. Hold it. Then press F. Then enter the name of something you are searching for. Make sure you spell it correctly. *********************************************************************** ATL.

At one point he was third on most mock drafts behind Okafor and Howard. It’s anyone’s guess what Smith is capable of, who knows, maybe he’ll be rookie of the year on a horrible Atlanta team, or maybe he’ll ride the bench and shoot 35% from the field. Well, Smith was also compared to Vince Carter, and at least he proved he has his athletic ability, as he won this year’s dunk contest. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Josh Childress (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’8” Weight: 210 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Stanford Years Pro: 3 Age: 23 Jersey Number: 1 Position: SF (from SG) 2nd Pos: SG (from SF) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Medium H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Nike Shoe Style: Air Huarache Elite Shoe Color: Red ATTRIBUTES Overall 79 (up from 75) Close 84 (up from 79) Med 75 3pt 80 (down from 82) FT 80 (up from 77) Layup 80 (up from 77) Dunk 80 (up from 76) Handle 74 Pass 59 (up from 57) PostOff 69 (up from 66) PostDef 66 (up from 61) Block 70 (up from 67) Steal 79 RebOff 78 RebDef 75 (up from 72) Speed 74 Stam 90 Dur 80 (up from 75) DefAwr 78 (up from 68) OffAwr 76 (up from 73) Fastbreak 85 Potential 78 Playing Time 32 (from 28 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 38 (up from 35) Close Tendency 55 Med Tendency 45 (down from 60) 3pt Tendency 20 (up from 14) Drive Tendency 60 Dunk Tendency 50 Back To Basket 50 TripleThreat 60 Fadeaway 60 HookShot 50 Putback 58 FlashyPass 14 Foul 39 Pass Interception 46 On Ball Steal 42 Contested Shot 28 SIGNATURE Jumper: Childress Post: Matrix AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 27 All-Rookie Second Team: 1 (2005) Playoff Experience: None Current Team: Hawks (209) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/josh_childress/index.html http://www.nba.com/draft2004/profiles/JoshChildress.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/josh_childress.htm http://www.tsn.ca/nba/teams/players/bio/?id=1015&hubname=nba-hawks http://www.nbadraft.net/profiles/joshchildress.asp http://sports.ign.com/articles/561/561059p1.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josh_childress http://www.82games.com/0506/05ATL8D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06ATL9D.HTM NOTES ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Anthony Johnson VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’3” Weight: 190 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Charleston Southern Years Pro: 10 Age: 32 Jersey Number: 8 Position: PG 2nd Pos: N/A ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: White SHOES Shoe Manuf: Nike Shoe Style: Air Huarache Elite Shoe Color: Red (from Blue default) ATTRIBUTES Overall 78 (up from 77) Close 75 (up from 65) Med 76 3pt 78 FT 75 Layup 84 Dunk 62 (up from 52) Handle 85 Pass 79 PostOff 58 (up from 55) PostDef 60 Block 58 Steal 73 RebOff 57 RebDef 55 Speed 80 Stam 85 Dur 75 DefAwr 76 OffAwr 83 Fastbreak 75 Potential 60 Playing Time 27 (up from 15) (from 19) (from 17 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 44 Close Tendency 20 Med Tendency 45 3pt Tendency 33 Drive Tendency 47 Dunk Tendency 5 (up from 0) Back To Basket 10 TripleThreat 70 Fadeaway 45 HookShot 10 Putback 8 FlashyPass 64 Foul 32 Pass Interception 43 On Ball Steal 40 Contested Shot 10 SIGNATURE Jumper: A.

He will be the first ever PG (aside from 6’7” Shaun Livingston) to enter the NBA Draft out of high school. Nobody Telfair’s size has competed in the NBA at such a young age. He is a quick distributor like T.J. Ford, but is not as athletic. Telfair is most similar to a young Jason Williams, with his flashy passing, ball handling, and erratic jump shot. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Kendrick Perkins (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’10” Weight: 280 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Clifton J.

http://www.82games.com/0607/06BOS16D.HTM NOTES Kandi is quite possibly the worst #1 pick in NBA history. Only the Clippers would draft a 23-year-old project with the first pick in the NBA draft. The Clippers ended up thinking so little of Kandi that they let him walk away as a free agent without any compensation. What a waste of a pick, as 1998 was one of the better draft classes in recent years. The Clippers could have taken Mike Bibby, Antawn Jamison, Vince Carter, Paul Pierce, or Dirk Nowitzki, but that’s the Clippers for you. If they could have done it all over again, they probably would have taken Robert Traylor instead. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- *********************************************************************** CHA.

He was in foul trouble in the first half of the championship game, but then scored all 18 of his points in the second half, and led UConn from a seven point deficit to a one point win. He was the designated collegiate 12th man (see Laettner, Collison) on the 2004 Olympic team. Not that selfishness is part of his game, but he got to see first hand how teamwork wins, even on a bigger stage than college. I’ve favorably compared him to Alonzo Mourning, rather than Ben Wallace like a few other people have. He’ll be somewhere in-between both (perhaps a 15 ppg scorer over his career). Just a follow-up on that, Okafor is averaging 15 ppg as of 3/18/05, so it looks like my comparisons to Mourning aren’t some kind of stretch. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Gerald Wallace (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’7” Weight: 215 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Alabama Years Pro: 6 Age: 24 Jersey Number: 3 Position: SF 2nd Pos: PF (from SG) ACCESSORIES Headband: Headband 1 L Arm Band: Blk Lower Arm R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: Team Band R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: Black Sleeve R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Nike Shoe Style: Nike Shox Elite Shoe Color: Orange ATTRIBUTES Overall 82 (up from 81) Close 84 Med 73 (up from 71) 3pt 73 FT 69 (up from 61) Layup 91 (down from 93) Dunk 96 Handle 78 Pass 60 (up from 56) PostOff 68 PostDef 77 Block 76 (down from 89) Steal 90 (down from 99) RebOff 76 (down from 79) RebDef 80 (down from 83) Speed 88 (up from 83) Stam 90 Dur 75 DefAwr 86 OffAwr 79 (up from 75) Fastbreak 85 Potential 77 (up from 74) Playing Time 34 (from 35 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 66 (up from 51) Close Tendency 50 Med Tendency 45 (down from 65) 3pt Tendency 22 (up from 12) Drive Tendency 80 (up from 70) Dunk Tendency 70 Back To Basket 40 TripleThreat 70 Fadeaway 65 HookShot 40 Putback 68 FlashyPass 14 Foul 38 Pass Interception 92 On Ball Steal 92 Contested Shot 68 (down from 78) SIGNATURE Jumper: G.

http://www.82games.com/0506/05CHA5D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06CHA4D.HTM NOTES Carroll went undrafted but impressed in Knicks’ training camp back in 2003, being cut only on the final day of training camp. He became a top scorer in the NBDL, and turned it into a backup role on the Bobcats, a position he has maintained with hard work and determination. Former first round pick Kareem Rush was cut by the Bobcats because he lacked that same attitude. Carroll is now a starter and is much more consistent than heralded lottery pick Adam Morrison. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Primoz Brezec (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 7’1” Weight: 252 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Slovenia Years Pro: 6 Age: 27 Jersey Number: 7 Position: C 2nd Pos: N/A ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Nike Shoe Style: Air Max Enforcer Shoe Color: Orange ATTRIBUTES Overall 75 (up from 72) Close 82 Med 73 (up from 71) 3pt 55 (up from 50) FT 72 (down from 73) Layup 53 (up from 50) Dunk 62 Handle 53 Pass 54 (up from 52) PostOff 79 PostDef 69 Block 74 (up from 64) Steal 51 (up from 50) RebOff 85 RebDef 78 (up from 74) Speed 55 Stam 80 Dur 85 DefAwr 56 OffAwr 76 (down from 79) Fastbreak 50 Potential 71 Playing Time 21 (from 27 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 57 (up from 54) Close Tendency 70 (down from 75) Med Tendency 40 (up from 30) 3pt Tendency 2 (up from 0) Drive Tendency 15 Dunk Tendency 40 (down from 50) Back To Basket 60 TripleThreat 15 Fadeaway 30 HookShot 60 Putback 72 FlashyPass 8 Foul 52 Pass Interception 8 On Ball Steal 8 Contested Shot 50 SIGNATURE Jumper: High Push Post: Agile AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 26 Playoff Experience: None Former Teams: Pacers (62) Current Team: Bobcats (209) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/primoz_brezec/index.html http://www.nba.com/bobcats/news/player_profile_primoz_brezec.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/primoz_brezec.htm http://www.tsn.ca/nba/teams/players/bio/?id=473&hubname=nba-bobcats http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primoz_Brezec http://www.82games.com/04CHA19D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0506/05CHA16D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06CHA18D.HTM NOTES Brezec went from a no-name scrub to a decent starting center.

McInnis benching in Jersey was hardly inexplicable though.

His single coverage defense on Shaq is the main reason why the Pistons were able to beat the Lakers (as that allowed them to zone on Kobe and the rest of the team). Wallace also took away Shaq’s second chance points. Shaq averaged 15.7 rpg (5.3 offensive) against Minnesota, but only 10.8 rpg (3.0 offensive) against Detroit (Karl Malone’s absence is magnified here). Wallace nearly repeated his success against Tim Duncan and the Spurs, but Duncan was able to do what Shaq could not (due to lack of quality teammates) – find the open man behind the 3pt line. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Kirk Hinrich (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’3” (from 6’4”) Weight: 190 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Kansas Years Pro: 4 Age: 25 Jersey Number: 12 Position: PG 2nd Pos: SG ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 85 (up from 84) Close 87 Med 79 (up from 78) 3pt 84 (up from 82) FT 82 Layup 92 (down from 94) Dunk 56 Handle 92 (down from 94) Pass 84 (up from 82) PostOff 54 PostDef 57 (up from 52) Block 56 (up from 53) Steal 75 (up from 73) RebOff 53 RebDef 62 Speed 89 Stam 95 Dur 80 DefAwr 84 (up from 81) OffAwr 88 Fastbreak 95 Potential 87 Playing Time 37 TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 61 (up from 54) Close Tendency 53 Med Tendency 65 3pt Tendency 52 (up from 47) Drive Tendency 52 Dunk Tendency 0 Back To Basket 0 TripleThreat 80 Fadeaway 65 HookShot 10 Putback 6 FlashyPass 66 Foul 41 Pass Interception 68 On Ball Steal 62 Contested Shot 8 SIGNATURE Jumper: Hinrich Post: Default AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 61 All-Defensive Second Team: 1 (2007) All-Rookie First Team: 1 (2004) Playoff Experience: Second Round 1x, First Round 2x (22 games, 16.9 ppg) Current Team: Bulls (314) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/kirk_hinrich/index.html http://www.nba.com/draft2003/profiles/HinrichKirk.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/kirk_hinrich.htm http://www.nbadraft.net/profiles/kirkhinrich.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirk_Hinrich http://www.82games.com/0506/05CHI3D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06CHI3D.HTM NOTES ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Luol Deng (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’9” (from 6’8”) Weight: 220 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Duke Years Pro: 3 Age: 23 Jersey Number: 9 Position: SF 2nd Pos: PF (from N/A) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Nike Shoe Style: Air Huarache Elite Shoe Color: Red ATTRIBUTES Overall 84 (up from 79) Close 94 (up from 79) Med 81 (up from 78) 3pt 67 (down from 72) FT 78 (up from 75) Layup 80 (up from 77) Dunk 77 Handle 75 Pass 58 (up from 57) PostOff 78 (up from 75) PostDef 73 (up from 70) Block 68 (down from 70) Steal 69 (up from 66) RebOff 75 RebDef 78 (down from 82) Speed 75 Stam 90 Dur 85 (up from 80) DefAwr 83 (up from 68) OffAwr 84 (up from 81) Fastbreak 85 Potential 82 Playing Time 35 TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 68 (up from 55) Close Tendency 60 Med Tendency 70 3pt Tendency 7 (down from 14) Drive Tendency 65 Dunk Tendency 55 Back To Basket 50 TripleThreat 65 Fadeaway 70 HookShot 50 Putback 34 FlashyPass 20 Foul 23 Pass Interception 39 On Ball Steal 36 Contested Shot 32 SIGNATURE Jumper: Deng Post: Athletic AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 49 First Team All-Rookie: 1 (2005) Playoff Experience: Second Round 1x, First Round 1x (16 games, 17.7 ppg) Current Team: Bulls (221) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/luol_deng/index.html http://www.nba.com/draft2004/profiles/LuolDeng.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/luol_deng.htm http://www.nbadraft.net/profiles/luol_deng.asp http://65.61.22.167/deng/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luol_Deng http://www.82games.com/04CHI7D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0506/05CHI9D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06CHI7D.HTM NOTES It’s not really talked about, but when LeBron was the consensus top HS player in the nation for three years straight, it was also a consensus that Deng was the second best HS player in the nation, for three years straight.

Maybe I’ve got fans in high places? Anyway, Dampier had a breakout season (in his free agent year, no surprise), which likely means it’s back to sucking.

It takes more than being 300 pounds to be a good center. Diop has actually gotten better since LOSING weight.

Melo/Nique are great scorers, but not the complete package like LeBron/MJ. Dominique never led his team deep into the playoffs (never got past second round) and I don’t expect Melo to either. He seems to think he’s better than he really is, as evidenced by his whining about being left off the Olympic team, and then pouting when he got there. The last time two rookies averaged 20 ppg in the same season was 92-93 (Shaq and Mourning). Take a look at what Melo has done under George Karl (who probably should be Coach of the Year, but won’t be since he was only coach for 2 months of the year). Before Karl showed up, Melo had two months with an FG% way under .400 (.384 in November, .371 in January). Since then Melo has been on the verge of .500 shooting, and more importantly, the Nuggets have been all but unbeatable. Meanwhile in Cleveland, we’ve seen Paul Silas get fired, and LeBron put up numbers while the team spins out of control and out of the playoffs. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Marcus Camby (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’11” Weight: 225 (NBA.com listed 235) Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Ripped Hand: Right College: Massachusetts Years Pro: 11 Age: 32 Jersey Number: 23 Position: C 2nd Pos: N/A (from PF) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 89 (up from 88) Close 84 (down from 89) Med 73 3pt 59 FT 71 Layup 66 Dunk 73 Handle 62 (up from 60) Pass 62 (up from 57) PostOff 72 PostDef 86 Block 97 (up from 95) Steal 82 RebOff 82 RebDef 97 Speed 68 (up from 65) Stam 80 Dur 65 (up from 60) DefAwr 91 (up from 84) OffAwr 74 Fastbreak 60 Potential 83 Playing Time 32 (from 35 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 51 Close Tendency 65 (down from 80) Med Tendency 60 3pt Tendency 3 Drive Tendency 35 Dunk Tendency 70 Back To Basket 50 TripleThreat 35 Fadeaway 60 HookShot 50 Putback 64 FlashyPass 18 Foul 41 Pass Interception 33 On Ball Steal 35 Contested Shot 98 SIGNATURE Jumper: Camby Post: High Hands AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 69 Defensive Player of Year: 1 (2007) All-Defensive First Team: 1 (2007) All-Defensive Second Team: 2 (2005, 2006) All-Rookie First Team: 1 (1997) Playoff Experience: NBA Finals 1x, Conference Finals 1x, First Round 5x (60 games, 8.6 ppg) Former Teams: Raptors (126), Knicks (197) Current Team: Nuggets (293) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/marcus_camby/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/marcus_camby.htm http://www2.sportsnet.ca/basketball/nba/players/Marcus_Camby/ http://www.bballone.com/marcusc/marcuscamby.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcus_Camby http://www.82games.com/0506/05DEN18D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06DEN18D.HTM NOTES Excellent shot blocker, good rebounder, and runs great for a big man, but not durable to play a full season as a starter. The one season he didn’t have injury problems (other than his landmark 72 games in Denver) was his first season in NY where he came off the bench the whole year, and keep in mind that was the 50 game lockout year. He has never played more than 63 games in a season (before this year), which means he misses at least 19 games per year. In his best season, he averaged 12.0 ppg, 11.5 rpg, 2.2 bpg on .525 FG% in only 33.8 mpg. His family was held hostage during the playoffs that year, and Camby was emotionally taken out of the series, which the Knicks eventually lost in 5 to the Raptors. Camby would be an all-star if he still played in the Eastern Conference. He should have been an all-star in 2007 but was snubbed in favor of Mehmet Okur. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Kenyon Martin VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’9” Weight: 234 (NBA.com listed 240) Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Ripped Hand: Right College: Cincinnati Years Pro: 7 Age: 30 Jersey Number: 6 Position: PF 2nd Pos: C (from N/A) ACCESSORIES Headband: Headband 1 L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: Team Band R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: Black Sleeve R Knee Pad: Team Sleeve Sock Length: Medium H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 81 (up from 78) Close 84 (up from 82) Med 68 3pt 65 FT 66 (down from 71) Layup 68 Dunk 77 (up from 73) Handle 66 Pass 56 PostOff 77 (up from 72) PostDef 79 (up from 74) Block 79 Steal 67 RebOff 78 RebDef 84 (down from 87) Speed 70 Stam 85 Dur 70 (down from 75) DefAwr 79 (up from 69) OffAwr 73 Fastbreak 75 Potential 81 Playing Time 28 (up from 10) (from 28 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 58 Close Tendency 70 (down from 85) Med Tendency 49 3pt Tendency 7 Drive Tendency 35 Dunk Tendency 75 Back To Basket 60 TripleThreat 35 Fadeaway 65 HookShot 60 Putback 42 FlashyPass 18 Foul 55 Pass Interception 64 On Ball Steal 67 Contested Shot 60 SIGNATURE Jumper: Martin Post: Big AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 63 All-Star selections: 1 (2004) All-Rookie First Team: 1 (2001) Playoff Experience: NBA Finals 2x, Second Round 1x, First Round 2x (58 games, 17.2 ppg) Former Teams: Nets (283) Current Team: Nuggets (128) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/kenyon_martin/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/kenyon_martin.htm http://www2.sportsnet.ca/basketball/nba/players/Kenyon_Martin/ http://nbadraft.net/profiles/kenyonmartin.htm http://www.bballone.com/kenyonm/kenyonmartin.html http://www.ibiblio.org/craig/draft/2000_draft/Players/martin.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenyon_Martin http://www.82games.com/04DEN13D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0506/05DEN15D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06DEN14D.HTM NOTES K-Mart is an exciting player to watch, especially next to Jason Kidd. Even with a knee injury in his senior year, Martin was still the blatantly obvious choice to be the first pick in 2000. Judging by what the rest of that draft class has done (Stromile Swift, Darius Miles, Marcus Fizer, Mike Miller, DerMarr Johnson, Chris Mihm, Jamal Crawford, Joel Przybilla, and Keyon Dooling fill out the rest of the top 10 draft choices that year, and 11-15 weren’t exactly much better), Martin is clearly a special player. But is he a max level player? That’s what the Nuggets gave him when they traded three first round picks for the right to sign him. Will Martin be worth his contract in 2010-11, when he is making 16.6 million dollars? In today’s NBA, that would make him the fifth highest paid player. He’s a great supporting player, but he’s no franchise player.

Larry Brown made him a very different player. He brought Billups (a shoot first guard) under control, which was a main reason why the Pistons won the championship. Here’s a bit of trivia: Before Billups did it, who was the last player that was NBA Finals MVP before making an all-star team? Joe Dumars, the guy that brought Billups in. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Rasheed Wallace (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’11” Weight: 230 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: North Carolina Years Pro: 12 Age: 32 Jersey Number: 36 Position: C (from PF) 2nd Pos: PF (from C) ACCESSORIES Headband: Headband 1 L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: 2nd Team Forearm Band R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: White SHOES Shoe Manuf: Nike Shoe Style: Air Huarache Elite Shoe Color: Blue ATTRIBUTES Overall 88 (up from 87) Close 89 (down from 94) Med 76 3pt 81 FT 74 Layup 69 Dunk 73 (up from 72) Handle 68 (up from 65) Pass 58 PostOff 84 PostDef 86 Block 83 Steal 70 RebOff 70 RebDef 89 (up from 86) Speed 70 Stam 85 Dur 90 DefAwr 86 OffAwr 79 (up from 76) Fastbreak 75 Potential 86 Playing Time 34 (down from 35) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 60 (up from 55) Close Tendency 70 (down from 80) Med Tendency 70 3pt Tendency 65 Drive Tendency 30 Dunk Tendency 65 (down from 70) Back To Basket 69 (down from 79) TripleThreat 30 Fadeaway 70 HookShot 70 (down from 80) Putback 42 FlashyPass 12 Foul 40 Pass Interception 22 On Ball Steal 26 Contested Shot 68 SIGNATURE Jumper: Sheed Post: Default AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 89 All-Star selections: 3 (2000, 2001, 2006) All-Rookie Second Team: 1 (1996) Playoff Experience: NBA Finals 2x, Conference Finals 4x, First Round 5x (1 ring, 132 games, 15.0 ppg) Former Teams: Wizards (65), Blazers (544), Hawks (1) Current Team: Pistons (256) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/rasheed_wallace/index.html http://www.nba.com/allstar2006/players/rasheed_wallace.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/rasheed_wallace.htm http://www2.sportsnet.ca/basketball/nba/players/Rasheed_Wallace/ http://www.rasheedwallace.com/ http://www.rawallacefoundation.com/ http://sports.ign.com/articles/698/698250p1.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rasheed_Wallace http://www.82games.com/04DET13D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0506/05DET13D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06DET13D.HTM NOTES Sheed was traded by Washington for Rod Strickland, one of Washington’s numerous all-time blunders. Despite his past behavior, Rasheed has been the hottest ticket in the league last year. He was traded to Atlanta, and then traded to Detroit. Won a ring with less than half a season in Detroit, and seemingly all of his past behavior problems are forgotten. Let’s see how that holds up over a full season, especially now that he got his new contract. Still, the Pistons were 33-11 after acquiring him (17-4 in regular season, 16-7 in playoffs) so as long as the team keeps winning, it will negate the distractions. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Richard Hamilton (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’7” Weight: 193 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Connecticut Years Pro: 8 Age: 28 Jersey Number: 32 Position: SG 2nd Pos: SF ACCESSORIES Headband: Headband 1 L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: White SHOES Shoe Manuf: Nike Shoe Style: Air Huarache Elite Shoe Color: Blue ATTRIBUTES Overall 85 (down from 86) Close 97 (down from 99) Med 94 3pt 76 (down from 91) FT 86 (up from 84) Layup 91 Dunk 64 (up from 60) Handle 82 Pass 69 (up from 63) PostOff 68 PostDef 60 Block 55 (up from 53) Steal 56 RebOff 64 (down from 69) RebDef 59 (up from 54) Speed 83 Stam 95 (down from 99) Dur 85 (down from 90) DefAwr 79 OffAwr 86 (up from 84) Fastbreak 95 Potential 84 Playing Time 37 (from 35 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 79 Close Tendency 50 Med Tendency 92 3pt Tendency 20 Drive Tendency 40 Dunk Tendency 16 Back To Basket 45 TripleThreat 60 Fadeaway 90 HookShot 33 Putback 8 FlashyPass 24 Foul 35 Pass Interception 32 On Ball Steal 28 Contested Shot 6 SIGNATURE Jumper: Hamilton Post: Athletic AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 76 All-Star selections: 2 (2006, 2007) 3pt% Leader: 1 (2006) Playoff Experience: NBA Finals 2x, Conference Finals 3x (1 ring, 99 games, 20.7 ppg) Former Teams: Wizards (212) Current Team: Pistons (391) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/richard_hamilton/index.html http://www.nba.com/allstar2006/players/richard_hamilton.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/richard_hamilton.htm http://www2.sportsnet.ca/basketball/nba/players/Richard_Hamilton http://www.ibiblio.org/craig/draft/1999_draft/Players/hamilton.html http://www.insidehoops.com/hamilton-interview-061905.shtml http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Hamilton_%28basketball_player%29 http://www.82games.com/04DET8D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0506/05DET8D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06DET6D.HTM NOTES Rip did better as MJ’s Scottie than Stackhouse did. Rip compares to Reggie Miller without the three-point range (at least until last season). Rip is better at moving without the ball than any other guard in the league now that Reggie has retired. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Tayshaun Prince VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’9” Weight: 215 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Left College: Kentucky Years Pro: 5 Age: 26 Jersey Number: 22 Position: SF 2nd Pos: N/A ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: White SHOES Shoe Manuf: Nike Shoe Style: Nike Shox Elite Shoe Color: Blue ATTRIBUTES Overall 85 (up from 82) Close 89 (down from 92) Med 78 3pt 82 (up from 80) FT 78 (up from 76) Layup 79 Dunk 82 Handle 75 Pass 60 (up from 58) PostOff 75 PostDef 80 Block 67 (up from 62) Steal 60 RebOff 76 (up from 71) RebDef 68 (up from 60) Speed 75 Stam 95 Dur 90 DefAwr 89 OffAwr 80 (up from 75) Fastbreak 85 Potential 79 Playing Time 37 (up from 35) ClutchDef 75 (Hidden Rating) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 50 Close Tendency 70 Med Tendency 70 3pt Tendency 37 (up from 27) Drive Tendency 65 Dunk Tendency 70 Back To Basket 50 TripleThreat 65 Fadeaway 70 HookShot 50 Putback 22 FlashyPass 20 Foul 10 Pass Interception 10 On Ball Steal 10 Contested Shot 48 SIGNATURE Jumper: Prince Post: Quick AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 57 All-Defensive Second Team: 3 (2005-2007) Playoff Experience: NBA Finals 2x, Conference Finals 3x (1 ring, 97 games, 14.1 ppg) Current Team: Pistons (370) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/tayshaun_prince/index.html http://www.nba.com/draft2002/profiles/tayshaun_prince.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/tayshaun_prince.htm http://www.hoopshype.com/interviews/prince_meyer.htm http://www2.sportsnet.ca/basketball/nba/players/Tayshaun_Prince http://www.nbadraft.net/profiles/tayshaunprince.htm http://www.tprince22.com/ http://sports.ign.com/articles/617/617397p1.html http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1655230/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tayshaun_Prince http://www.82games.com/04DET10D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0506/05DET9D.HTM NOTES Prince made one of the greatest defensive plays in NBA history, blocking a seemingly wide-open Reggie Miller layup and preserving a Detroit win in game two of the 2004 Conference Finals. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Chris Webber (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’10” Weight: 245 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Michigan Years Pro: 14 Age: 33 Jersey Number: 84 Position: PF 2nd Pos: C (from N/A) ACCESSORIES Headband: Headband 1 L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: Black Strap R Knee Pad: Black Strap Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: White SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 83 (down from 84) Close 87 Med 73 (down from 76) 3pt 72 FT 71 (down from 76) Layup 66 Dunk 70 (down from 73) Handle 71 Pass 69 (up from 61) PostOff 86 PostDef 76 (down from 78) Block 72 Steal 78 RebOff 82 (up from 79) RebDef 88 (down from 90) Speed 63 Stam 80 Dur 80 DefAwr 64 OffAwr 82 (down from 84) Fastbreak 60 Potential 92 Playing Time 30 (down from 32) (from 35) (from 40 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 59 (down from 84) Close Tendency 80 (down from 83) Med Tendency 66 3pt Tendency 13 Drive Tendency 45 Dunk Tendency 40 (down from 50) Back To Basket 65 TripleThreat 45 Fadeaway 80 HookShot 70 Putback 30 FlashyPass 44 Foul 36 Pass Interception 66 On Ball Steal 63 Contested Shot 46 SIGNATURE Jumper: Webber Post: Big AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 138 All-Star selections: 5 (1997, 2000-2003, 2 starts) All-NBA First Team: 1 (2001) All-NBA Second Team: 3 (1999, 2001, 2003) All-NBA Third Team: 1 (2000) Rookie of the Year: 1 (1994) All-Rookie First Team: 1 (1994) Playoff Experience: Conference Finals 2x, Second Round 3x, First Round 5x (80 games, 18.7 ppg) Former Teams: Warriors (76), Wizards/Bullets (212), Kings (377), 76’ers (114) Current Team: Pistons (43) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/chris_webber/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/chris_webber.htm http://www.chriswebber.com/ http://www.bballone.com/chrisw/chriswebber.html http://www.insidehoops.com/webber-interview-010504.shtml http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0916357/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Webber http://www.82games.com/0506/05PHI13D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06PHI15D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06DET12D.HTM NOTES The Kings missed their chance. The Lakers were clearly weak in 2003, but Webber’s injury killed them in the second round. Then in 2004 C- Webb spent most of the year injured, and when he came back there were chemistry issues abound. I think he takes an unfair amount of heat, because Peja Stojakovic is a non-factor in a half-court offense. Stojakovic has choked far more than Webber has in the playoffs. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Antonio McDyess (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’9” Weight: 245 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Ripped Hand: Right College: Alabama Years Pro: 12 Age: 32 Jersey Number: 24 Position: PF 2nd Pos: N/A (from C) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: Team Band R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: White SHOES Shoe Manuf: Adidas Shoe Style: Decade Shoe Color: Black/Royal/Red ATTRIBUTES Overall 81 (up from 76) Close 84 (up from 82) Med 75 (up from 68) 3pt 50 FT 67 (up from 56) Layup 61 (up from 59) Dunk 73 (up from 68) Handle 62 Pass 56 PostOff 78 (up from 73) PostDef 74 Block 78 (up from 73) Steal 65 RebOff 87 (up from 82) RebDef 89 (up from 79) Speed 68 Stam 80 Dur 80 (up from 75) DefAwr 75 (up from 72) OffAwr 70 Fastbreak 75 Potential 84 Playing Time 28 TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 51 (up from 46) Close Tendency 75 Med Tendency 60 3pt Tendency 1 Drive Tendency 15 Dunk Tendency 70 (up from 50) Back To Basket 66 TripleThreat 15 Fadeaway 60 HookShot 70 Putback 68 FlashyPass 8 Foul 70 Pass Interception 29 On Ball Steal 23 Contested Shot 54 SIGNATURE Jumper: Basic Post: Big AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 77 All-Star selections: 1 (2001) All-NBA Third Team: 1 (1999) All-Rookie First Team: 1 (1996) Playoff Experience: NBA Finals 1x, Conference Finals 2x, First Round 1x (63 games, 8.7 ppg) Former Teams: Nuggets (150), Suns (81), Nuggets (211), Knicks (18), Suns (24) Current Team: Pistons (241) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/antonio_mcdyess/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/antonio_mcdyess.htm http://www2.sportsnet.ca/basketball/nba/players/Antonio_McDyess/ http://www.jockbio.com/Bios/McDyess/McDyess_bio.html http://www.insidehoops.com/mcdyess-interview-061505.shtml http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antonio_mcdyess http://www.82games.com/0506/05DET11D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06DET10D.HTM NOTES It’s very hard to say what McDyess is going to do now that he’s back. He missed essentially 3 years with injuries. People in Detroit are saying he’s doing very well, that he should be a sixth man quality backup, but we’ll have to see. Anytime you have a former 20/10 guy coming off your bench, it should be a good thing (unless you’re an overweight drug abuser named Shawn Kemp). ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Nazr Mohammed (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’10” Weight: 250 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Kentucky Years Pro: 9 Age: 29 Jersey Number: 13 Position: C 2nd Pos: N/A ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: White SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 76 Close 72 Med 65 (up from 60) 3pt 51 (up from 50) FT 66 (down from 78) Layup 54 Dunk 67 Handle 50 Pass 53 PostOff 72 PostDef 81 Block 82 (up from 79) Steal 64 (up from 54) RebOff 92 (up from 89) RebDef 86 (up from 84) Speed 62 (down from 65) Stam 75 Dur 80 DefAwr 69 (down from 79) OffAwr 57 Fastbreak 60 Potential 72 Playing Time 15 (up from 10) (from 29 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 42 Close Tendency 60 Med Tendency 25 (down from 35) 3pt Tendency 0 Drive Tendency 15 Dunk Tendency 55 Back To Basket 50 TripleThreat 15 Fadeaway 35 HookShot 50 Putback 98 FlashyPass 2 Foul 83 Pass Interception 42 On Ball Steal 40 Contested Shot 70 SIGNATURE Jumper: Baby Twist Post: Quick AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 29 Playoff Experience: NBA Finals 1x, Conference Finals 1x, Second Round 2x, First Round 1x (1 ring, 40 games, 6.1 ppg) Former Teams: 76’ers (84), Hawks (198), Knicks (81), Spurs (103) Current Team: Pistons (51) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/nazr_mohammed/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/nazr_mohammed.htm http://www2.sportsnet.ca/basketball/nba/players/Nazr_Mohammed/ http://www.tsn.ca/nba/teams/players/bio/?id=253&hubname= http://www.ibiblio.org/craig/draft/1998_draft/Players/mohammed.htm http://www.insidehoops.com/mohammed-interview-061205.shtml http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazr_Mohammed http://www.82games.com/0506/05SAS14D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06DET15D.HTM NOTES Took Dikembe Mutombo’s starting job with the Knicks, but wasn’t nearly as effective on defense. A good backup center, but not really someone you want starting. Watching Mohammed’s wretched “defense” all season has led to me calling him “Freeway”. I came up with this name after the Hornets executed three alley-oops against him in the span of a few minutes. Freeway will collect great stats against teams with a scrub center in the middle (like the Hawks or Raptors) but is a total non- factor against a real big man. Freeway’s claim to fame is blocking Jason Collins shot 8 times in one game (who hasn’t?) including three times in one possession. His 53 blocks in 54 games with the Knicks seems a bit less impressive when you take out that one game. Interestingly, Nazr is 2-2 on threes during the playoffs in his career, but is 0-3 during the regular season. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Dale Davis (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’11” Weight: 252 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Ripped Hand: Right College: Clemson Years Pro: 16 Age: 37 Jersey Number: 34 Position: C 2nd Pos: N/A (from PF) ACCESSORIES Headband: Headband 1 L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: White SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 76 (up from 68) Close 70 (down from 75) Med 58 3pt 50 FT 61 (down from 67) Layup 50 Dunk 63 Handle 55 Pass 60 PostOff 67 PostDef 81 (up from 69) Block 86 (up from 70) Steal 62 RebOff 89 (up from 72) RebDef 82 (up from 70) Speed 61 (down from 65) Stam 60 Dur 85 (up from 75) DefAwr 78 (up from 70) OffAwr 56 (down from 60) Fastbreak 60 Potential 70 Playing Time 10 TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 25 Close Tendency 50 Med Tendency 30 (down from 40) 3pt Tendency 0 (down from 7) Drive Tendency 10 Dunk Tendency 45 Back To Basket 50 TripleThreat 10 Fadeaway 40 HookShot 50 Putback 86 FlashyPass 8 Foul 66 Pass Interception 28 On Ball Steal 26 Contested Shot 70 SIGNATURE Jumper: Billups Post: Normal AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 84 All-Star selections: 1 (2000) Playoff Experience: NBA Finals 1x, Conference Finals 7x, Second Round 1x, First Round 6x (137 games, 6.9 ppg) Former Teams: Pacers (646), Blazers (313), Warriors (36), Pacers (25) Current Team: Pistons (74) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/dale_davis/index.html http://www.nba.com/blazers/community/Dale_Davis_Community_Assists- 91861-41.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/dale_davis.htm http://www2.sportsnet.ca/basketball/nba/players/Dale_Davis/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dale_Davis http://www.82games.com/0506/05DET14D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06DET14D.HTM NOTES ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Flip Murray (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’3” (from 6’4”) Weight: 190 (NBA.com listed 197) Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Shaw Years Pro: 5 Age: 27 Jersey Number: 6 Position: SG 2nd Pos: PG (from N/A) ACCESSORIES Headband: Headband 1 L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: White SHOES Shoe Manuf: Adidas Shoe Style: Decade Shoe Color: Black/Royal/Red ATTRIBUTES Overall 75 Close 87 Med 79 3pt 71 FT 72 (up from 71) Layup 87 Dunk 75 (down from 78) Handle 84 (up from 80) Pass 67 (up from 62) PostOff 66 (down from 70) PostDef 62 (down from 65) Block 57 (up from 52) Steal 73 RebOff 57 RebDef 53 Speed 85 (up from 80) Stam 90 Dur 80 DefAwr 64 (down from 70) OffAwr 76 (up from 75) Fastbreak 95 Potential 75 Playing Time 22 (from 26 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 55 Close Tendency 60 Med Tendency 65 3pt Tendency 29 Drive Tendency 68 Dunk Tendency 45 Back To Basket 30 (down from 40) TripleThreat 80 Fadeaway 40 HookShot 30 (down from 40) Putback 8 FlashyPass 18 Foul 30 Pass Interception 46 On Ball Steal 46 Contested Shot 20 SIGNATURE Jumper: Crossed Arms Post: Quick AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 31 Playoff Experience: Conference Finals 1x, Second Round 2x (29 games, 6.9 ppg) Former Teams: Bucks (12), Sonics (181), Cavaliers (28) Current Team: Pistons (69) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/ronald_murray/index.html http://www.nba.com/draft2002/profiles/ronald_murray.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/ronald_murray.htm http://www2.sportsnet.ca/basketball/nba/players/Flip_Murray/ http://www.tsn.ca/NBA/teams/players/bio/?id=719&hubname=nba-cavs http://nbadraft.net/profiles/ronaldmurray.asp http://probasketball.about.com/cs/players/p/ronaldmurray.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ronald_Murray http://www.82games.com/0506/05SEA6D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0506/05CLE4D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06DET5D.HTM NOTES Was thought of as a throw in the Payton/Allen trade, and then averaged 21.5 ppg as a starter when Allen went down with injury. However he ended up getting benched because he gives a lot of it back on the defensive end. Flip was the subject of quite a fiasco for 2K Sports. He badly needed to be added to the rosters in 2k4, but despite fans cries for his blatantly necessary addition, Visual Concepts never came through.

They ended up becoming better than many of the teams that made the playoffs, and as long as they stay healthy, they will undoubtedly get there next year (so long, Memphis). Davis is also usually among the worst FT shooting guards in the league, but last year he shot 76% from the line. If he truly has gained a stroke, it will make him that much more dangerous considering how physical he is compared to other PGs. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Jason Richardson (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’6” Weight: 225 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Michigan State Years Pro: 6 Age: 25 Jersey Number: 23 Position: SG 2nd Pos: SF ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: Team Lower Arm R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Nike Shoe Style: Nike Shox Leapers Shoe Color: Blue ATTRIBUTES Overall 85 (down from 86) Close 97 Med 83 (from 86 default) 3pt 80 (down from 83) FT 67 Layup 93 Dunk 97 (down from 99) Handle 80 Pass 65 (up from 60) PostOff 75 (down from 80) PostDef 70 Block 66 (up from 61) Steal 75 RebOff 71 RebDef 73 Speed 86 Stam 95 Dur 85 (up from 80) DefAwr 72 OffAwr 87 (down from 89) Fastbreak 85 Potential 87 Playing Time 36 (up from 10) (from 38 default) ClutchOff 75 (Hidden Rating) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 78 (down from 88) Close Tendency 80 Med Tendency 80 3pt Tendency 70 Drive Tendency 72 Dunk Tendency 70 Back To Basket 50 (down from 60) TripleThreat 75 Fadeaway 80 HookShot 50 (down from 60) Putback 24 FlashyPass 30 Foul 34 Pass Interception 62 On Ball Steal 64 Contested Shot 18 SIGNATURE Jumper: J.Rich Post: Agile AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 74 All-Rookie First Team: 1 (2002) Slam Dunk Champ: 2 (2002, 2003) Playoff Experience: Second Round 1x (11 games, 19.1 ppg) Current Team: Warriors (438) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/jason_richardson/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/jason_richardson.htm http://www.nbadraft.net/profiles/jasonrichardson.htm http://msuspartans.collegesports.com/sports/m-baskbl/spec- rel/090200aaa.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Richardson http://www.82games.com/0506/05GSW5D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06GSW8D.HTM NOTES J-Rich is a promising young player who won the slam-dunk contest in each of his first two years.

Jackson’s actions were arguably worse than Artest’s as Artest went into the stands in retaliation, whereas Jackson went into the stands and started swinging. Artest got the worse punishment because it wasn’t the first time he was a dumbass. Here’s an interesting excerpt from an IGN interview with Jackson about what he does with former teammate Jason Terry. Stephen Jackson: Yes, I had to flash it to him first. I let him look at it every chance I get. He says I show it to him too much. That is my n****. You know what I mean. I die with him. I ride with him. I am going to wake up with him. From day one, we are riding together, at the end of the day we sleep together. In case you were wondering, Jackson was talking about his championship ring, not his other championship “hardware”. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Andris Biedrins (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’11” Weight: 240 (NBA.com listed 245) Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Latvia Years Pro: 3 Age: 20 Jersey Number: 15 Position: C (from PF) 2nd Pos: N/A (from C) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 80 (up from 76) (from 72 default) Close 82 (up from 79) Med 58 (down from 65) 3pt 50 FT 52 (up from 50) Layup 64 Dunk 77 (up from 72) Handle 60 Pass 54 (up from 52) PostOff 71 (up from 66) PostDef 74 (up from 70) Block 86 (up from 83) Steal 62 RebOff 89 RebDef 92 (up from 82) Speed 68 Stam 85 Dur 85 (up from 80) DefAwr 81 (from 68 default) OffAwr 68 (up from 63) (from 54 default) Fastbreak 75 Potential 78 Playing Time 29 (up from 23) (from 15 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 38 (up from 28) Close Tendency 60 Med Tendency 15 (down from 25) 3pt Tendency 0 Drive Tendency 30 Dunk Tendency 70 (up from 65) Back To Basket 50 TripleThreat 30 Fadeaway 25 HookShot 50 Putback 84 FlashyPass 6 Foul 79 (down from 89) Pass Interception 32 On Ball Steal 25 Contested Shot 48 SIGNATURE Jumper: Kick Post: Athletic AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: N/A Playoff Experience: Second Round 1x (11 games, 6.4 ppg) Current Team: Warriors (180) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/andris_biedrins/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/andris_biedrins.htm http://www.nbadraft.net/profiles/andrisbiedrins.asp http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andris_Biedrins http://www.82games.com/0506/05GSW14D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06GSW18D.HTM NOTES Another 18 year old that has shown more than get off the bench.

Although on that note, I’m willing to bet that only 1 out every billion Chinese people is 7’6”. Yao was undeservedly an all-star in his rookie year, which goes to show how flawed the Internet voting system is - cross the most populated country in the world with the world’s most accessible ballot… if Shaq didn’t get traded to the East, Yao would have been starting over Shaq every year regardless of their performance. Yao was undeservedly the 2003 Rookie of the Year runner-up, behind Amare Stoudemire. It’s not so much that Yao was markedly better, but the voting wasn’t even that close. What did Amare do that was more significant than Yao? Phoenix made the playoffs. That’s all. You can attribute that to Shawn Marion being a helluva a lot better as a second option than Cuttino Mobley. At the very least, they should have been co-winners. Yao deserved more touches in the Houston offense. Sorry Stevie, we know how much you hated passing to Hakeem Olajuwon, but when your center is hitting a high percentage on the inside, maybe you should think about getting it down there more… it’s funny how Francis was dealt to a team with another young big man he’ll have to defer to sooner rather than later (Howard). Yao and T-Mac are one of the more dangerous combos in history, and will go deep in the playoffs if they can get a decent supporting cast together. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Shane Battier (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’8” Weight: 220 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Duke Years Pro: 6 Age: 28 Jersey Number: 31 (from 41) (Thanks Shane for correcting this!)

Mutombo has been named Defensive Player of the Year FOUR times, yet he has only made the All-Defensive First Team THREE times. Explain that one, boys. Anyway, Mutombo set a playoff record with 31 blocks in a 5 game playoff series (That’s over 6 bpg) against Seattle in 1994. That Denver team became the first 8th seed to ever defeat a 1st seed in the playoffs. Mutombo recently passed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar in career blocked shots, and he now only trails Hakeem Olajuwon in that department (all he needs to do to pass Hakeem is play until he’s 50). Mutombo deserves to get some Hall of Fame consideration when all is said and done. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Juwan Howard (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’9” Weight: 230 (NBA.com listed 253) Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Michigan Years Pro: 13 Age: 33 Jersey Number: 5 Position: PF 2nd Pos: C (from SF) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 77 (up from 72) Close 87 Med 75 (up from 71) 3pt 57 FT 83 (up from 81) Layup 66 Dunk 64 Handle 68 Pass 56 (up from 55) PostOff 76 (up from 74) PostDef 71 (up from 69) Block 52 (up from 51) Steal 58 RebOff 79 (up from 74) RebDef 81 (up from 71) Speed 70 Stam 75 Dur 75 DefAwr 69 OffAwr 74 (up from 69) Fastbreak 60 Potential 80 Playing Time 30 (from 18) (from 10) (from default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 54 (up from 49) Close Tendency 70 Med Tendency 60 3pt Tendency 1 Drive Tendency 35 Dunk Tendency 30 (down from 40) Back To Basket 60 TripleThreat 35 Fadeaway 60 HookShot 60 Putback 54 FlashyPass 14 Foul 45 Pass Interception 16 On Ball Steal 16 Contested Shot 4 SIGNATURE Jumper: Juwan Howard Post: High Hands AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 90 All-Star selections: 1 (1996) All-NBA Third Team: 1 (1996) All-Rookie Second Team: 1 (1995) Playoff Experience: Second Round 1x, First Round 2x (20 games, 11.3 ppg) Former Teams: Wizards/Bullets (464), Mavericks (80), Nuggets (105), Magic (81) Current Team: Rockets (221) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/juwan_howard/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/juwan_howard.htm http://www2.sportsnet.ca/basketball/nba/players/Juwan_Howard/ http://www.bballone.com/juwanh/juwanhoward.html http://www.juwanhoward.com/ http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0397423/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juwan_Howard http://www.82games.com/04HOU15D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0506/05HOU16D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06HOU12D.HTM NOTES Few people will forget the huge contract that Howard never lived up to. He got it by averaging 22/8/4 in his second season, but he never came close to those numbers again. He also was a SF at the start of his career, but became a PF (thus negating his size and rebounding advantage) as time passed on.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Sura http://www.82games.com/04HOU7D.HTM NOTES Well holy freakin crap. When Sura was with the Hawks, he put up the oddest stats I’ve seen in all my years of watching basketball. In 18 starts for the Hawks, he averaged 16.4 ppg, 9.3 rpg, and 5.9 apg. Sura had three triple doubles in a row, an NBA record, but had his final one controversially taken away by the league as it ruled that a shot he missed on purpose and rebounded for his 10th rebound should not have counted as a shot attempted. Sura turned his success last year into his first ever full-time starting role, playing a role similar to the one Ron Harper had in Chicago. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- John Lucas (CREATED PLAYER) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 5’11” Weight: 165 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Oklahoma St Years Pro: 2 Age: 24 Jersey Number: 15 Position: PG 2nd Pos: N/A ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: White SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES PG - Distributor Overall 71 Close 65 Med 71 3pt 67 FT 79 Layup 84 Dunk 50 Handle 85 Pass 70 PostOff 50 PostDef 50 Block 50 Steal 85 RebOff 62 RebDef 57 Speed 86 Stam 90 Dur 80 DefAwr 71 OffAwr 70 Fastbreak 50 Potential 55 Playing Time 10 TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 50 Close Tendency 25 Med Tendency 45 3pt Tendency 40 Drive Tendency 50 Dunk Tendency 0 Back To Basket 0 TripleThreat 70 Fadeaway 60 HookShot 0 Putback 0 FlashyPass 42 Foul 48 Pass Interception 76 On Ball Steal 78 Contested Shot 0 SIGNATURE Jumper: Default Post: Quick AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: N/A Playoff Experience: First Round 1x (2 games, 0.0 ppg) Current Team: Rockets (60) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/john_iii_lucas/index.html http://www.nba.com/draft2005/profiles/JohnLucas.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/john_lucas.htm http://www.draftexpress.com/viewprofile.php?p=98 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Harding_Lucas_III http://www.82games.com/0607/06HOU1D.HTM NOTES ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Vassilis Spanoulis (CREATED PLAYER) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Steve Novak (CREATED PLAYER) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- *********************************************************************** IND.

He won two championships his first two seasons. Cassell also took New Jersey to the playoffs more times than Stephon Marbury (1-0). After some bouncing around, unexpectedly had a career year in 03-04, making his first all-star appearance, and the All-NBA Second team. Unfortunately, it looks like it can only go downhill from here. Cassell’s nagging injuries eventually cost Minnesota in the Conference Finals and with Troy Hudson also injured, the T-Wolves had to depend on lowly Darrick Martin. With a healthy Cassell and Hudson, the T’Wolves would have been favorites to win the championship. Had Cassell not gone down, it’s very possible they’d have won a championship that year. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Corey Maggette (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL

http://www.82games.com/0607/06LAC1D.HTM NOTES I wouldn’t call myself an expert on how high school stats translate to the NBA, but Livingston’s stats were awful compared to Sebastian Telfair’s. He averaged 18.0 ppg, 6.2 rpg, and 5.7 apg as a senior. Telfair averaged 33.2 ppg, 3.7 rpg, and 9.2 apg as a senior. I think what this tells us is Telfair is much more talented, but is overlooked because of his size, whereas Livingston is thought highly of because he has the “potential” for an NBA body. I say potential, because he is by far the smallest frame of any 6’7” player in the league. Despite a 7- inch height advantage, Livingston only weighs 10 more pounds than Telfair (which means Telfair actually has the better NBA body right now when you factor in his speed/size). Obviously if he muscles up he has the potential to be a Jalen Rose or Penny Hardaway type player (if he can fix his ugly shot mechanics), but he really looks like a total boom or bust player. If his body remains status quo, he’s not going to contribute much in the NBA. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Cuttino Mobley (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’4” Weight: 215 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Left College: Rhode Island Years Pro: 9 Age: 32 Jersey Number: 5 Position: SG 2nd Pos: SF (from N/A) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: Team Lower Arm R Arm Band: Team Lower Arm L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: Black Sleeve R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Medium H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Nike Shoe Style: Air Huarache Elite Shoe Color: Red ATTRIBUTES Overall 79 (up from 77) Close 84 (up from 79) Med 79 (up from 76) 3pt 85 (up from 79) FT 84 Layup 85 (down from 88) Dunk 71 (down from 76) Handle 84 (down from 85) Pass 60 PostOff 66 PostDef 66 (up from 64) Block 59 Steal 72 RebOff 58 RebDef 64 (down from 67) Speed 81 Stam 95 Dur 80 DefAwr 73 OffAwr 79 (up from 77) Fastbreak 85 Potential 80 Playing Time 36 (up from 34) (from 38 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 45 (down from 50) Close Tendency 55 (down from 60) Med Tendency 70 (down from 75) 3pt Tendency 45 (up from 35) Drive Tendency 58 (down from 75) Dunk Tendency 20 (down from 40) Back To Basket 40 TripleThreat 75 Fadeaway 75 HookShot 40 Putback 10 FlashyPass 18 Foul 33 Pass Interception 45 On Ball Steal 42 Contested Shot 20 SIGNATURE Jumper: Mobley Post: Normal AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 78 All-Rookie Second Team: 1 (1999) Playoff Experience: Second Round 1x, First Round 3x (26 games, 12.8 ppg) Former Teams: Rockets (436), Magic (23), Kings (43) Current Team: Clippers (157) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/cuttino_mobley/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/cuttino_mobley.htm http://www.insidehoops.com/mobley-interview-120404.shtml http://www.phillycat5.com/cmobley/default.aspx http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuttino_Mobley http://www.82games.com/0506/05LAC7D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06LAC7D.HTM NOTES Mobley is Steve Francis’ best friend/lover, so it’s only fitting that they were traded together to Orlando.

The athletic player Isiah Thomas wanted. He can shoot a bit like Van Horn, but is a worse rebounder. My gut feeling says the Knicks will miss Van Horn more than they think. And oh my god, I was right. Tim Thomas was flat out terrible for the Knicks. He was total garbage in the first half of the season, and didn’t start hitting shots until the team was way out of playoff contention. Since the guy’s only skill is hitting jumpers, he was useless on the court most of the time, and a defensive liability (opposing SFs had an effective FG% of .550). He made Trevor Ariza look like a much better player than he really is. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Quinton Ross (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’6” Weight: 195 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Southern Methodist Years Pro: 3 Age: 25 Jersey Number: 13 Position: SG (from SF) 2nd Pos: SF (from SG) ACCESSORIES Headband: Headband 1 L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 74 (up from 72) Close 75 (up from 72) Med 75 (up from 73) 3pt 60 (up from 55) FT 77 (up from 76) Layup 84 Dunk 73 (down from 76) Handle 79 (down from 82) Pass 57 (up from 56) PostOff 59 (up from 56) PostDef 68 (up from 63) Block 70 (up from 57) Steal 77 (up from 75) RebOff 68 (up from 65) RebDef 62 Speed 83 Stam 90 Dur 80 DefAwr 84 OffAwr 66 (down from 72) Fastbreak 85 Potential 63 Playing Time 21 (down from 23) (from 30) (from 23 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 29 Close Tendency 30 (up from 20) Med Tendency 45 (up from 35) 3pt Tendency 4 (up from 2) Drive Tendency 65 (down from 70) Dunk Tendency 15 (up from 5) Back To Basket 20 TripleThreat 70 Fadeaway 35 HookShot 20 Putback 16 FlashyPass 16 Foul 50 Pass Interception 59 On Ball Steal 62 Contested Shot 42 SIGNATURE Jumper: Kick Post: High Hands AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 23 Playoff Experience: Second Round 1x (12 games, 7.7 ppg) Current Team: Clippers (246) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/quinton_ross/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/quinton_ross.htm http://nbadraft.net/profiles/quentonross.htm http://www.insidehoops.com/ross-interview-111504.shtml http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quinton_Ross http://www.82games.com/04LAC8A.HTM http://www.82games.com/0506/05LAC6D.HTM NOTES Was not drafted by an NBA team, but still started 21 games for the Clippers last year anyway.

This is the prevailing reason why Kobe, no matter what he does in the rest of his career, will always be one level below MJ. Kobe got caught with his hand in the cookie jar, and got his reputation stained. MJ never did. Kobe was the youngest player to ever play in an all-star game, he set the NBA record for threes in a game with 12 (later tied by Donyell Marshall), and became the youngest player in NBA history to reach 10,000 points (off course, the main reason he’s the youngest is he didn’t go to college, LeBron is also on pace to break that record). Kobe learned last season that life without Shaq or Phil was quite a bit harder. He should consider himself fortunate that one of the two came back. With the return of Phil Jackson, Kobe has been able to get easier shots within the offense, and is jacking up more shots than ever before. He is averaging around 26 field goals attempted per game. Kobe recently went off for “62 points in three quarters”. The basketball community has gone wild over this “feat” but I don’t think it more impressive than past 60-point games from NBA players. For one, Kobe had zero assists in this game, whereas other 60-point gamers have had around 5 assists in the game. For two, Kobe had 31 FGA in 33 minutes. Three quarters doesn’t really matter, because Kobe got as many touches in those three quarters as he does in most four-quarter games where he explodes (a pretty good indicator that Dallas’ defense of him was absolutely horrendous). Kobe was also the beneficiary of a slew of technical fouls that got him some extra points in his record third quarter. There have been many basketball “experts” who say that had the game been competitive, Kobe would have stayed in, he would have had a 70 or 80-point game. To this I say, had the game been competitive (meaning, had Dallas actually played defense), Kobe wouldn’t have had 62 points anyway, and if anything he would have finished the game with that same 62 points. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Lamar Odom VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’10” Weight: 225 (NBA.com listed 230) Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Rhode Island Years Pro: 8 Age: 27 Jersey Number: 7 Position: PF (from SF) 2nd Pos: SF (from PF) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: Black Band R Elbow Pad: Black Band L Wrist Band: Blk Wrist Band R Wrist Band: Blk Wrist Band L Knee Pad: 2nd Team Calf Sleeve R Knee Pad: 2nd Team Calf Sleeve Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Nike Shoe Style: Nike Shox Elite Shoe Color: Yellow ATTRIBUTES Overall 86 Close 94 Med 78 3pt 77 (down from 82) FT 71 (up from 69) Layup 86 (up from 84) Dunk 76 Handle 80 Pass 72 PostOff 83 PostDef 73 Block 70 Steal 62 RebOff 72 (down from 77) RebDef 90 (up from 87) Speed 75 Stam 90 Dur 80 DefAwr 76 OffAwr 87 Fastbreak 75 Potential 89 Playing Time 40 TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 48 (up from 43) Close Tendency 75 (down from 80) Med Tendency 60 3pt Tendency 29 Drive Tendency 70 Dunk Tendency 60 (down from 65) Back To Basket 68 TripleThreat 70 Fadeaway 75 HookShot 70 Putback 36 FlashyPass 30 Foul 38 Pass Interception 10 On Ball Steal 10 Contested Shot 54 SIGNATURE Jumper: Odom Post: High Hands AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 77 All-Rookie First Team: 1 (2000) Playoff Experience: Second Round 1x, First Round 1x (20 games, 17.7 ppg) Former Teams: Clippers (230), Heat (80) Current Team: Lakers (144) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/lamar_odom/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/lamar_odom.htm http://www.lamarodom.us/ http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1156027/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamar_Odom http://www.82games.com/02LAC8A.HTM http://www.82games.com/03MIA10D.HTM http://www.82games.com/04LAL10D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0506/05LAL11D.HTM NOTES Rashidi’s claim to fame - Odom went to high school about 10 blocks from his house. How did I come to know about Lamar Odom? Back in the day, my friends and I were talking about what NBA players we’d met. One of my friends said he met Anthony Mason at a sneaker store. My other friend, who was in ninth grade at the time and went to Christ the King HS, said, “Lamar Odom”. I said, “Who’s that?” and my friend said, “Lamar Odom is NBA”. Makes me wonder what it’s like, knowing that you’re a lock for the NBA at the age of 14… An athletics director I know says Odom is the most talented player he’s ever seen, but he was also the stupidest kid he’d ever seen, going as far as to say “he was stupid as a brick”. For what it’s worth, that director was also as dumb as a brick, because he absolutely 100% swore to me that Nick Van Exel had been traded to the Celtics two days prior (never mind that I check NBA.com and ESPN.com everyday during the summer and heard no such talk), and he was pissed because that meant Boston wouldn’t need Omar Cook who was in camp with Boston at the time (also of Christ the King lore). Rashidi Insider Info at it’s finest. Rashidi is a big Lamar Odom fan, but recently he received an E-mail from someone alleging they are Lamar Odom’s cousin. This cousin informed me that Lamar is deeply upset with the comments I made about him (referring to him as “stupid as a brick”). However, if Lamar had read closely, he would have noticed that I did not make the comments, someone who knew him did. One can only wonder about Lamar’s reading comprehension, and which side of the NBA’s Read to Achieve program he should be a part of. Further, I find it humorous how this “cousin” would come so quickly to defend the intellect of Lamar Odom, when IT IS A WELL KNOWN THAT LAMAR CHEATED ON HIS ACT’S (American College Test). At Christ the King he ranked 312th in a class of 334, yet somehow finished in the top 42% in the country on the ACT with 22 of 36. The SAT equivalent to a 22 is a score of 1030. Five months before taking the ACT, Odom admitted to newspapers that he got a 630 on the SAT. A 400 point improvement over five months, on a test that is an indicator of life-long schooling? Let the facts fall where they may, cousin. At least Rashidi can smile knowing that he got a higher SAT mark without cheating. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Luke Walton (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’8” Weight: 235 (NBA.com listed 232) Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Arizona Years Pro: 4 Age: 26 Jersey Number: 4 Position: SF 2nd Pos: PF ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Nike Shoe Style: Nike Shox Elite Shoe Color: Yellow ATTRIBUTES Overall 79 (up from 73) Close 82 (up from 65) Med 73 (up from 68) 3pt 79 (up from 76) FT 75 Layup 73 Dunk 65 Handle 73 (up from 68) Pass 77 (up from 67) PostOff 71 (up from 64) PostDef 67 Block 60 (up from 58) Steal 69 RebOff 73 (down from 78) RebDef 73 Speed 73 Stam 85 Dur 80 DefAwr 74 OffAwr 80 (up from 72) Fastbreak 75 Potential 69 (up from 64) Playing Time 34 (from 29) (from 19 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 35 Close Tendency 50 (up from 40) Med Tendency 40 3pt Tendency 25 (up from 20) Drive Tendency 50 (up from 40) Dunk Tendency 30 Back To Basket 50 (up from 40) TripleThreat 40 Fadeaway 40 HookShot 50 (up from 40) Putback 48 FlashyPass 30 Foul 44 Pass Interception 43 On Ball Steal 45 Contested Shot 24 SIGNATURE Jumper: Quick Launch Post: Athletic AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: N/A Playoff Experience: NBA Finals 1x, First Round 1x (24 games, 4.9 ppg) Current Team: Lakers (202) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/luke_walton/index.html http://www.nba.com/draft2003/profiles/WaltonLuke.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/luke_walton.htm http://www.nbadraft.net/profiles/lukewalton.htm http://www.geocities.com/lukewaltonnet/ http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1508431/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luke_Walton http://www.82games.com/0506/05LAL10D.HTM NOTES Luke Walton is the son of NBA Hall of Famer/Color Commentator Bill Walton (who also did color for 2K5).

He’s certainly no LeBron James. In fairness, 2001 was a very weak draft class, though Michael Jordan didn’t help matters by criticizing his own draft choice at every opportunity. The cousin of Jabari Smith – wouldn’t it be funny if Jabari ended up being better than Kwame? The Lakers traded two starters for Kwame, gambling that he can become a better than average starter for them. I don’t know how that one’s going to pan out. People compare Kwame to Jermaine O’Neal in this instance, saying Jermaine didn’t break out until he was traded, and then he became a 20/10 player. Well, the thing is Kwame has already had his chances. He was a starter in 03-04 and averaged 10.9 ppg and 7.4 rpg. Decent numbers, but Darius Songaila put up similar numbers whenever he got a chance to start. Kwame played 2,239 minutes that year. Jermaine played 2,436 minutes in FOUR years in Portland. Kwame has played 5,737 minutes already, and has yet to show any indication that he can become a star player. When Jermaine made it to his 5,700th minute, he was averaging 19 ppg and 9 rpg, not 7 ppg and 4 rpg. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Brian Cook (NEW-Edit)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Bynum http://www.82games.com/0506/05LAL17D.HTM NOTES Bynum has been heralded as the next Shaq. So were Eddy Curry and DaSagana Diop. The height of his potential is Shaq, but like every other center that has been given that comparison, he has a very long way to go. It was only fitting that the Lakers draft Bynum. If anyone can help him turn his potential into reality, it’s the Lakers and Phil Jackson. You can’t help but think that Kobe is salivating over the prospect of having “his Shaq”. Still, Bynum is very young and very raw; it will be a slow process. He’s not going to oust Chris Mihm from the lineup anytime soon. Bynum is the youngest player ever drafted (17 years, 8 months, and 2 days old), and he is the youngest player ever to play in an NBA game (18 years, and 6 days old). Those records will probably stand the test of time as the NBA now requires American players to enter the NBA draft a year after they graduate high school (and they must turn 19 during the calendar year of the draft to be eligible).

It looks like he’s running out of steam and ending his career on a low note.

Originally it was thought that the Grizzlies were giving up an established star for a lesser player in order to clean house when they moved to Memphis. Gasol was the first European to ever win Rookie of the Year, also going against the stereotype that Europeans took time to develop and weren’t NBA ready after being drafted (Dirk and Peja, for example). He was perhaps the best player in the 2004 Olympics, and it’s a shame that Spain, arguably the best team at the tournament didn’t even medal. They certainly deserved the Bronze more than the US. They only lost one game. Spain BEAT Argentina and Italy (gold and silver winners) but lost to the team that ended up with the Bronze. Meanwhile the US lost to teams that didn’t even end up with medals (Lithuania, and Puerto Rico, who wasn’t even a top 5 team). If anyone can explain to me how Spain not getting a medal makes any sense, I’d love to hear it. What a crock of a structure. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Mike Miller (NEW-Edit, POSITION CHANGED IN ONLINE DOWNLOAD) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’8” Weight: 218 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Florida Years Pro: 7 Age: 26 Jersey Number: 33 Position: SF (from SG default) 2nd Pos: SG (from SF default) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: Blk Wrist Band L Knee Pad: Black Strap R Knee Pad: Black Strap Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Adidas Shoe Style: Decade Shoe Color: Black/Blue/Gold ATTRIBUTES Overall 81 (up from 78) (from 77 default) Close 89 (up from 79) Med 83 (up from 81) 3pt 86 FT 80 Layup 76 (up from 74) Dunk 68 (down from 73) Handle 81 Pass 68 (up from 61) PostOff 71 (up from 66) PostDef 66 (up from 61) Block 56 (down from 59) Steal 60 (down from 62) RebOff 62 (up from 59) RebDef 77 (down from 85) Speed 76 Stam 90 Dur 75 DefAwr 67 (up from 61) OffAwr 83 (up from 79) Fastbreak 85 Potential 75 Playing Time 39 (from 30 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 63 (up from 53) Close Tendency 45 Med Tendency 75 (down from 80) 3pt Tendency 82 (up from 62) Drive Tendency 55 (down from 65) Dunk Tendency 15 (down from 25) Back To Basket 40 TripleThreat 65 Fadeaway 80 HookShot 40 Putback 6 FlashyPass 26 Foul 37 Pass Interception 24 On Ball Steal 24 Contested Shot 14 SIGNATURE Jumper: M.

Ultimately, the fact that he missed so many games killed his chances. The Miami Heat were back in the playoffs, and Wade was a big reason why. The scariest part of all is he’s a SG playing out of position at PG. In one season he’s probably played more playoff games than LeBron/Melo will in the next 3 years. With Shaq in town, it’s likely that Wade will play more playoff games in the next three years than LeBron/Melo will play in their entire careers. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Shaquille O’Neal (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 7’1” Weight: 325 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: LSU Years Pro: 15 Age: 34 Jersey Number: 32 Position: C 2nd Pos: N/A ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: Black Sleeve R Knee Pad: Black Sleeve Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 91 (down from 92) Close 97 (down from 99) Med 58 3pt 50 FT 50 Layup 60 (up from 58) Dunk 72 Handle 65 Pass 60 (up from 57) PostOff 99 PostDef 95 Block 85 (down from 88) Steal 52 RebOff 88 RebDef 87 (down from 92) Speed 60 Stam 75 (down from 80) Dur 75 DefAwr 78 OffAwr 92 Fastbreak 60 Potential 99 Playing Time 31 (from 29 default) ClutchOff 75 (Hidden Rating) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 86 Close Tendency 99 Med Tendency 5 3pt Tendency 0 Drive Tendency 0 Dunk Tendency 95 Back To Basket 99 TripleThreat 10 Fadeaway 10 HookShot 98 Putback 80 FlashyPass 20 Foul 70 Pass Interception 8 On Ball Steal 8 Contested Shot 68 SIGNATURE Jumper: Shaq Post: Shaq AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 361 (13th all-time, 5th among centers) Most Valuable Player: 1 (2000) NBA Finals MVP: 3 (2000-2002) All-Star selections: 14 (1993-1998, 2000-2007, 8 starts) All-Star Game MVP: 2 (2000, 2004) All-NBA First Team: 8 (1998, 2000-2006) All-NBA Second Team: 2 (1995, 1999) All-NBA Third Team: 3 (1994, 1996, 1997) All-Defensive Second Team: 3 (2000, 2001, 2003) Rookie of the Year: 1 (1993) All-Rookie First Team: 1 (1993) Scoring Titles: 1 (2000) FG% Leader: 8 (1994, 1998-2002, 2004, 2005) Playoff Experience: NBA Finals 6x, Conference Finals 2x, Second Round 4x, First Round 2x (4 rings, 198 games, 25.5 ppg) Former Teams: Magic (295), Lakers (514) Current Team: Heat (172) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/shaquille_oneal/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/shaquille_oneal.htm http://www2.sportsnet.ca/basketball/nba/players/Shaquille_O'Neal http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0641944/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaquille_oneal http://www.82games.com/04MIA17D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0506/05MIA16D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06MIA16D.HTM NOTES Shaq Daddy is the most dominating player in the NBA. When all is said and done he’ll go down as one of the top five centers of all-time (the other four are Wilt, Russell, Jabbar, and Hakeem). Shaq was the first player in NBA history to be named Player of the Week in his first week in the league. He shattered two backboards while dunking during his rookie year. Shaq was selected as one of the 50 greatest players of all time, after only his fourth season. Shaq went to the Finals with his third team last year, winning his fourth championship. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Alonzo Mourning (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’10” Weight: 325 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Ripped Hand: Right College: Georgetown Years Pro: 15 Age: 36 Jersey Number: 33 Position: C 2nd Pos: N/A (from PF) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: Black Pad L Wrist Band: Blk Wrist Band R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: Black Pad R Knee Pad: Black Pad Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Nike Shoe Style: Air Huarache Elite Shoe Color: Red ATTRIBUTES Overall 84 (up from 80) Close 79 Med 65 (down from 68) 3pt 55 (up from 50) FT 62 (up from 59) Layup 53 Dunk 71 (up from 69) Handle 56 (up from 54) Pass 53 (up from 51) PostOff 77 (up from 72) PostDef 91 Block 97 (up from 96) Steal 54 (up from 51) RebOff 85 (up from 81) RebDef 79 (down from 84) Speed 61 Stam 75 Dur 80 DefAwr 91 (up from 81) OffAwr 68 (up from 56) Fastbreak 60 Potential 93 Playing Time 22 TENDENCIES Shot Tendnecy 46 (up from 43) Close Tendency 60 Med Tendency 25 3pt Tendency 0 Drive Tendency 25 Dunk Tendency 65 Back To Basket 60 TripleThreat 25 Fadeaway 25 HookShot 60 Putback 64 FlashyPass 4 Foul 75 Pass Interception 10 On Ball Steal 10 Contested Shot 96 SIGNATURE Jumper: Salute Post: Power AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 118 (89th all-time, 25th among centers) All-Star selections: 7 (1994-1997, 2000-2002, 1 start) All-NBA First Team: 1 (1999) All-NBA Second Team: 1 (2000) Defensive Player of the Year: 2 (1999, 2000) All-Defensive First Team: 2 (1999, 2000) All-Rookie First Team: 1 (1993) Blocks Leader: 1 (1999) Playoff Experience: NBA Finals 1x, Conference Finals 2x, Second Round 3x, First Round 2x (1 ring, 95 games, 13.6 ppg) Former Teams: Hornets (215), Heat (407), Nets (30), Raptors (0) Current Team: Heat (161) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/alonzo_mourning/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/alonzo_mourning.htm http://www.amcharities.org/ http://www.bballone.com/alonzom/alonzomourning.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alonzo_Mourning http://www.82games.com/04MIA14D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0506/05MIA15D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06MIA14D.HTM NOTES Zo missed three seasons in a four year span (including all of 2003) because of a kidney ailment related to his medication.

He still showboats, but no longer commits turnovers. In 02-03, he was second in A/T ratio, second in assists per minute behind John Stockton, and second in assists per game behind Jason Kidd. The only thing stopping him from being tops in the league is his low minute totals, due to Memphis’ depth. Now J-Will is in Miami sharing PG duties with Gary Payton, and ball handling duties with Dwyane Wade.

Instead of having the most exciting young backcourt in the league, they have injury prone Jason Williams locked up (as well as getting stuck with Antoine Walker in the trade for White Chocolate), and ancient Gary Payton off the bench/spot starting. That’s a lot to pay for a player who probably won’t be ready to contribute until Shaq is close to retirement. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Michael Doleac (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’11” Weight: 262 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Utah Years Pro: 9 Age: 29 Jersey Number: 51 Position: C 2nd Pos: N/A ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Adidas Shoe Style: A3 Pro Team Shoe Color: Black/Red/Gold ATTRIBUTES Overall 73 (up from 71) Close 70 (down from 75) Med 76 (up from 75) 3pt 55 (down from 60) FT 83 (up from 79) Layup 53 Dunk 58 (down from 60) Handle 54 (up from 50) Pass 57 PostOff 69 PostDef 68 Block 67 Steal 65 RebOff 74 (up from 71) RebDef 83 (up from 75) Speed 60 Stam 75 Dur 80 DefAwr 73 OffAwr 68 Fastbreak 50 Potential 60 Playing Time 12 (up from 10) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 39 Close Tendency 45 (down from 50) Med Tendency 55 (up from 45) 3pt Tendency 2 (down from 10) Drive Tendency 20 Dunk Tendency 10 (down from 35) Back To Basket 50 TripleThreat 20 Fadeaway 45 HookShot 50 Putback 40 FlashyPass 8 Foul 65 Pass Interception 18 On Ball Steal 18 Contested Shot 38 SIGNATURE Jumper: Big Set Post: High Hands AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: N/A All-Rookie Second Team: 1 (1999) Playoff Experience: NBA Finals 1x, Conference Finals 1x, First Round 4x (1 ring, 31 games, 2.3 ppg) Former Teams: Magic (207), Cavaliers (42), Knicks (121), Nuggets (26) Current Team: Heat (167) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/michael_doleac/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/michael_doleac.htm http://www2.sportsnet.ca/basketball/nba/players/Michael_Doleac/ http://www.ibiblio.org/craig/draft/1998_draft/Players/doleac.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Doleac http://www.82games.com/0506/05MIA14D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06MIA13D.HTM NOTES Vastly underrated by Visual Concepts no longer, Doleac is one of the better shooting centers in the league.

He helped make the Bucks a playoff team, in a year where most people (but not me) had them projected for last place. Set the NBA record with most three’s in a quarter with 8. Signed with Dallas in restricted free agency for very little money (right before he broke out), and Milwaukee matched at the very last minute. Many people thought he’d sign with Cleveland to team up with LeBron, but he re-signed in Milwaukee rather than play second fiddle. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Maurice Williams (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’1” Weight: 185 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Alabama Years Pro: 4 Age: 24 Jersey Number: 25 Position: PG 2nd Pos: SG (from N/A) ACCESSORIES Headband: Headband 1 L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: Team Band R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: Black Strap R Knee Pad: Black Strap Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 83 (up from 79) Close 84 (up from 82) Med 83 (up from 78) 3pt 78 (down from 83) FT 85 Layup 93 Dunk 59 (up from 50) Handle 90 Pass 79 (up from 75) PostOff 55 PostDef 60 Block 52 Steal 76 RebOff 60 RebDef 73 (up from 57) Speed 91 Stam 90 Dur 75 DefAwr 79 OffAwr 83 (up from 76) Fastbreak 95 Potential 75 (up from 70) Playing Time 37 (from 33) (from 30 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 79 (up from 59) Close Tendency 30 (up from 25) Med Tendency 70 (up from 40) 3pt Tendency 40 (down from 50) Drive Tendency 60 Dunk Tendency 2 (up from 0) Back To Basket 10 TripleThreat 80 Fadeaway 40 HookShot 10 Putback 10 FlashyPass 60 Foul 47 Pass Interception 37 On Ball Steal 34 Contested Shot 6 SIGNATURE Jumper: Textbook Post: Strong AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 37 Playoff Experience: First Round 1x (5 games, 7.2 ppg) Former Teams: Jazz (57) Current Team: Bucks (206) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/maurice_williams/index.html http://www.nba.com/draft2003/profiles/WilliamsMaurice.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/maurice_williams.htm http://www.nbadraft.net/profiles/mauricewilliams.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maurice_Williams_%28basketball_player%29 http://www.82games.com/0506/05MIL2D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06MIL3D.HTM NOTES The Bucks signed Mo to a cheap three-year deal, and it’s looking like a huge bargain since T.J.

I have stated many times that the T’Wolves would have won the championship that year if it weren’t for Sam Cassell’s injury in the 2004 Conference Finals. The Wolves had to go with Darrick Martin as their PG and essentially play 4 on 5. They also had the shooters to beat Detroit’s zone, which annihilated the Lakers. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Ricky Davis (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’7” Weight: 195 (NBA.com listed 226) Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Ripped Hand: Right College: Iowa Years Pro: 9 Age: 27 Jersey Number: 31 Position: SF (from SG) 2nd Pos: SG (from SF) ACCESSORIES Headband: Headband 1 L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: Team Band R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: White SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 84 (up from 81) Close 89 Med 83 (up from 79) 3pt 82 (up from 75) FT 82 (up from 80) Layup 92 Dunk 93 Handle 84 Pass 69 PostOff 76 PostDef 69 (up from 64) Block 58 (up from 52) Steal 68 RebOff 61 RebDef 63 Speed 84 (up from 79) Stam 95 (up from 90) Dur 85 DefAwr 79 OffAwr 84 (up from 82) Fastbreak 95 Potential 76 Playing Time 37 (down from 38) (from 41 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 68 Close Tendency 60 Med Tendency 75 3pt Tendency 52 (up from 32) Drive Tendency 79 Dunk Tendency 65 Back To Basket 60 TripleThreat 80 Fadeaway 75 HookShot 60 Putback 12 FlashyPass 48 Foul 28 Pass Interception 57 On Ball Steal 57 Contested Shot 14 SIGNATURE Jumper: R.

Good for 10-12 ppg off the bench as a shooter. One of the most underrated players in the league, as evidenced by the Rockets trading James and his expiring contract for the more “talented” Rafer Alston and his five year contract. Of course, James will probably command a similar contract to what Alston got in free agency negating this advantage. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Mark Blount (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 7’0” Weight: 250 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Pittsburgh Years Pro: 7 Age: 31 Jersey Number: 30 Position: C 2nd Pos: N/A (from PF) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: White SHOES Shoe Manuf: Nike Shoe Style: Air Max Enforcer Shoe Color: Blue ATTRIBUTES Overall 77 (up from 70) Close 87 (up from 72) Med 73 (up from 66) 3pt 72 (up from 50) FT 75 (down from 76) Layup 52 Dunk 66 Handle 55 Pass 55 PostOff 79 (up from 69) PostDef 75 (up from 65) Block 73 (down from 77) Steal 55 RebOff 76 (up from 73) RebDef 79 (up from 74) Speed 60 Stam 75 Dur 85 (up from 75) DefAwr 74 OffAwr 69 (up from 59) Fastbreak 60 Potential 62 Playing Time 32 (from 28 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 59 (up from 49) Close Tendency 65 (up from 50) Med Tendency 40 (up from 30) 3pt Tendency 10 (up from 0) Drive Tendency 20 Dunk Tendency 60 (down from 65) Back To Basket 60 TripleThreat 20 Fadeaway 30 HookShot 60 Putback 44 FlashyPass 14 Foul 58 Pass Interception 8 On Ball Steal 8 Contested Shot 56 SIGNATURE Jumper: High Push Post: Athletic AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 28 Playoff Experience: Conference Finals 1x, Second Round 1x, First Round 2x (22 games, 4.2 ppg) Former Teams: Celtics (108), Nuggets (54), Celtics (230) Current Team: T’Wolves (124) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/mark_blount/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/mark_blount.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Blount http://www.82games.com/04BOS15D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0506/05BOS15D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0506/05MIN16D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06MIN14D.HTM NOTES ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Craig Smith (NEW-Edit, CREATED PLAYER) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’7” Weight: 272 Build: Thick Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Boston College Years Pro: 1 Age: 23 Jersey Number: 5 Position: PF 2nd Pos: N/A APPEARANCE (PS2) Skin Color: 2 Face: 1 Hair Style: Waves Hair Color: Black Beard Style: 3 Moustache: 2 Sideburns: None ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES PF -

He was signed and traded to the T’Wolves for Sam Cassell. Cassell couldn’t help but laugh when he heard how much money Jaric received in his new contract. The Wolves seemed to badly undervalue Cassell, and drastically overrated Jaric. Jaric has lost his starting job before the all-star break.

23.5 ppg is the norm for PGs playing against Derek Fisher. Not that its Fisher’s fault or anything, as Shaq adamantly refuses to defend the pick and roll. Hudson’s injury struggles this year eventually led to the downfall of the team. When Cassell was hurting in the playoffs, they had to resort to using Darrick Martin. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, a healthy Minnesota team would have won the championship in 2004. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Mark Madsen (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’9” Weight: 245 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Stanford Years Pro: 7 Age: 30 Jersey Number: 35 Position: C (from PF) 2nd Pos: PF (from C) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: White SHOES Shoe Manuf: Nike Shoe Style: Air Max Elite Shoe Color: Blue ATTRIBUTES Overall 70 (down from 71) Close 62 Med 53 (down from 58) 3pt 51 (up from 50) FT 50 Layup 61 Dunk 66 (up from 64) Handle 60 Pass 54 PostOff 68 (down from 70) PostDef 80 Block 69 (down from 74) Steal 74 RebOff 85 (up from 80) RebDef 70 (down from 75) Speed 65 Stam 80 Dur 85 DefAwr 89 OffAwr 50 Fastbreak 75 Potential 52 Playing Time 10 TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 12 Close Tendency 40 Med Tendency 20 (down from 30) 3pt Tendency 9 Drive Tendency 35 Dunk Tendency 40 Back To Basket 40 TripleThreat 35 Fadeaway 30 HookShot 40 Putback 74 FlashyPass 6 Foul 82 Pass Interception 10 On Ball Steal 10 Contested Shot 40 SIGNATURE Jumper: Big Set Post: Default AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: N/A Playoff Experience: NBA Finals 2x, Conference Finals 1x, Second Round 1x (2 rings, 49 games, 1.7 ppg) Former Teams: Lakers (183) Current Team: T’Wolves (169) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/mark_madsen/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/mark_madsen.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Madsen http://www.82games.com/0506/05MIN16D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06MIN13D.HTM NOTES THE MADDDDDDDDDDDDD DOGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG Mark Madsen is known for his championship celebratory “dances”. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Justin Reed (EDITED IN ONLINE DOWNLOAD) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’9” (from 6’8”) Weight: 240 (NBA.com listed 238) Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Mississippi Years Pro: 3 Age: 24 Jersey Number: 9 Position: PF (from SF) 2nd Pos: SF (from N/A) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: White SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 69 (up from 65) Close 67 Med 71 3pt 55 (up from 50) FT 74 (up from 73) Layup 68 Dunk 65 Handle 66 (up from 65) Pass 55 PostOff 70 (up from 65) PostDef 70 (up from 65) Block 64 Steal 62 RebOff 76 RebDef 66 (up from 56) Speed 73 (from 75 default) Stam 85 Dur 80 DefAwr 72 OffAwr 60 Fastbreak 75 Potential 50 Playing Time 10 (from 17 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 44 Close Tendency 30 Med Tendency 30 3pt Tendency 0 Drive Tendency 50 Dunk Tendency 45 Back To Basket 30 TripleThreat 50 Fadeaway 30 HookShot 30 Putback 42 FlashyPass 14 Foul 84 Pass Interception 24 On Ball Steal 24 Contested Shot 14 SIGNATURE Jumper: Clumsy Post: Quick AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: N/A Playoff Experience: First Round 1x (6 games, 1.2 ppg) Former Teams: Celtics (55) Current Team: T’Wolves (81) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/justin_reed/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/justin_reed.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justin_Reed http://www.82games.com/0506/05MIN12D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06MIN9D.HTM NOTES ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Bracey Wright (CREATED PLAYER) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- *********************************************************************** NJN.

The only PGs who’ve been named to more are Magic, Oscar, and Cousy. The only other players in NBA history to put up assist and rebound numbers like Kidd were Magic and Oscar (though LeBron might have something to say about that). Like those legends, Kidd racks up triple doubles at a historic rate. Kidd has 75 career triple doubles, which is fourth all-time. It’s only a matter of time before he passes Wilt at 78. Kidd was actually the original LeBron; he was packing the house in high school the same way, but it came before ESPN covered such events. Kidd had NBA level court vision as far back as the 8th grade. It’s a shame that Kenyon Martin forced the Nets to dump him (due to his outrageous contract demands which Denver is now regretting), but they did a great job retooling the team, getting Vince Carter for practically nothing. New Jersey is a quality big man away from being a legit title contender. Nenad Krstic was only 21 years old but did very well for the Nets last year.

Krstic became a big contributor after the Nets traded Alonzo Mourning and Aaron Williams. He’s still very young and can improve in a few areas. I think he’s a good marker of progress for Darko. Krstic is two years older, and also spent two years overseas developing his game, and he became a contributor at age 21 (because everyone else around him got traded). Now that Darko is getting significant minutes in Orlando, he is showing the potential to have a Krstic-like year in 2007. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Marcus Williams VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’3” Weight: 215 (NBA.com listed 205) Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Left College: Connecticut Years Pro: 1 Age: 21 Jersey Number: 1 Position: PG 2nd Pos: N/A ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 75 (up from 71) Close 79 (up from 77) Med 76 (up from 71) 3pt 71 (down from 79) FT 85 Layup 88 Dunk 59 Handle 87 (up from 85) Pass 82 (up from 77) PostOff 55 PostDef 58 (up from 55) Block 51 (down from 54) Steal 65 RebOff 62 (up from 57) RebDef 65 (up from 55) Speed 85 Stam 90 (down from 95) Dur 80 DefAwr 68 OffAwr 78 (up from 73) Fastbreak 95 Potential 79 Playing Time 17 (from 23) (from 20 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 71 (up from 48) Close Shots 35 Mid-Range Shots 35 3pt Shots 35 (up from 25) Drive the Lane 53 Attempts Dunks 0 Back To Basket 10 Triple Threat 80 Shoots Fadeaways 50 Shoots Hookshots 10 Attempts Putback 4 Flashy Passes 72 Commits Fouls 42 Passing Lanes 37 On Ball Steals 39 Contests Shots 10 AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 0 All-Rookie Second Team: 1 (2007) Playoff Experience: Second Round 1x (12 games, 6.8 ppg) Current Team: Nets (79) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/marcus_williams/index.html http://www.nba.com/timberwolves/news/williams_workout_interview_060523. html http://www.nba.com/celtics/news/draft-central/interview- williams052506.html http://www.hoopshype.com/draft/marcus_williams.htm http://nbadraft.net/profiles/marcuswilliams.asp http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/player/profile?playerId=15343 http://www.draftexpress.com/viewprofile.php?p=180 http://www.collegehoopsnet.com/Draft/2006/marcuswilliams.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcus_Williams_%28basketball%29 http://www.82games.com/0607/06NJN2D.HTM NOTES ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Eddie House (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’1” Weight: 175 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Arizona State Years Pro: 7 Age: 28 Jersey Number: 50 Position: SG Second Pos: PG ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Long H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 75 (up from 73) Close 70 Med 78 3pt 86 (up from 84) FT 85 (up from 80) Layup 81 Dunk 52 Handle 84 (up from 81) Pass 67 (up from 64) PostOff 54 PostDef 52 Block 54 Steal 70 RebOff 54 RebDef 64 (up from 60) Speed 84 Stam 90 Dur 80 DefAwr 62 OffAwr 74 (up from 71) Fastbreak 85 Potential 64 Playing Time 17 (up from 13) (from 10 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 81 Close Shots 25 (down from 55) Mid-Range Shots 75 3pt Shots 75 Drive the Lane 56 Attempts Dunks 0 Back to Basket 10 Triple Threat 70 Attempts Fadeaways 55 Attempts Hookshots 10 Attempts Putback 12 Flashy Passes 32 Commits Fouls 32 Passing Lanes 74 On Ball Steals 72 Contests Shots 10 SIGNATURE Jumper: House Post: Normal AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 31 Playoff Experience: Conference Finals 1x, Second Round 1x, First Round 2x (24 games, 4.0 ppg) Former Teams: Heat (169), Clippers (60), Bobcats (13), Bucks (5), Kings (50), Suns (81) Current Team: Nets (56) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/eddie_house/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/eddie_house.htm http://www2.sportsnet.ca/basketball/nba/players/Eddie_House/ http://nbadraft.net/profiles/eddiehouse.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddie_House http://www.82games.com/0506/05PHO3D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06NJN3D.HTM NOTES Brother in law of Mike Bibby, and was Bibby’s backup last year in Sacramento.

I find it kind of hard to believe that he actually spent time there last season, since he’s a pretty good option for a third string center. He even averaged 7.9 ppg in his second season and averaged 6.0 ppg in 3 playoff games. Why was he always fighting for a job while guys like Mark Pope, Travis Knight, etc. got paid a lot to sit and do nothing on an NBA roster? Finally getting his due with the Nets.

He was one of the best backups in league history on those teams, averaging 20 ppg en route to sixth man of the year. He wants to play deep into his forties, and can probably do it, when you look at how durable he has been. Cliff is currently the only player in the NBA over 6’10” to hit 1000 three pointers (though Dirk is gaining on him very quickly). ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Bostjan Nachbar VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’9” Weight: 221 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Slovenia Years Pro: 5 Age: 26 Jersey Number: 7 Position: PF (from SF) 2nd Pos: SF (from N/A) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Nike Shoe Style: Air Huarache Elite Shoe Color: Blue ATTRIBUTES PF - Finesse Overall 72 (up from 67) Close 72 Med 73 (up from 70) 3pt 82 (up from 76) FT 79 (up from 74) Layup 66 (down from 68) Dunk 68 Handle 65 Pass 57 (down from 59) PostOff 68 (up from 65) PostDef 68 (up from 65) Block 69 (up from 59) Steal 68 (down from 70) RebOff 58 (down from 61) RebDef 81 (up from 68) Speed 75 Stam 80 Dur 75 DefAwr 60 OffAwr 71 (up from 60) Fastbreak 75 Potential 61 Playing Time 15 (from 10 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 49 Close Tendency 50 Med Tendency 40 3pt Tendency 59 Drive Tendency 50 Dunk Tendency 45 Back To Basket 30 TripleThreat 50 Fadeaway 40 HookShot 30 Putback 8 FlashyPass 12 Foul 69 Pass Interception 22 On Ball Steal 22 Contested Shot 18 SIGNATURE Jumper: Forward Hop Post: Default AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: N/A Playoff Experience: Second Round 1x, First Round 2x (18 games, 7.4 ppg) Former Teams: Rockets (75), Hornets (80) Current Team: Nets (87) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/bostjan_nachbar/index.html http://www.nba.com/draft2002/profiles/bostjan_nachbar.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/bostjan_nachbar.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bostjan_Nachbar http://www.82games.com/0506/05NOK11D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0506/05NJN11D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06NJN9D.HTM NOTES ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Jason Collins VITALS/GENERAL Height: 7’0” Weight: 260 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Stanford Years Pro: 6 Age: 28 Jersey Number: 35 Position: C (from PF) 2nd Position: PF (from C) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: 2nd Team Sleeve R Knee Pad: Black Sleeve Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Nike Shoe Style: Air Max Enforcer Shoe Color: Blue ATTRIBUTES Overall 71 (up from 69) Close 65 (down from 70) Med 66 (up from 58) 3pt 60 (up from 50) FT 51 Layup 50 Dunk 60 Handle 60 Pass 57 (up from 54) PostOff 64 (down from 70) PostDef 83 (up from 70) Block 70 (down from 72) Steal 63 RebOff 77 (up from 75) RebDef 78 (up from 76) Speed 60 Stam 80 Dur 80 (up from 75) DefAwr 79 (up from 74) OffAwr 55 (down from 60) Fastbreak 60 Potential 50 Playing Time 23 (down from 27) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 20 Close Tendency 40 Med Tendency 25 3pt Tendency 3 Drive Tendency 15 Dunk Tendency 50 Back To Basket 40 TripleThreat 15 Fadeaway 25 HookShot 40 Putback 58 (up from 38) FlashyPass 8 Foul 73 Pass Interception 32 On Ball Steal 36 Contested Shot 54 SIGNATURE Jumper: Smooth Post: Athletic AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 22 Playoff Experience: NBA Finals 2x, Second Round 3x, First Round 1x (75 games, 3.7 ppg) Current Team: Nets (467) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/jason_collins/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/jason_collins.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Collins http://www.82games.com/0506/05NJN16D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06NJN12D.HTM NOTES Twin brother of Jarron Collins. You can tell by their general ineptness on offense and their similar facial features. It’s funny how Collins is Stanford’s all-time leader in FG%, while meanwhile as a pro he has a career .420 FG% (.364 in the playoffs).

Between the numbers and the improvement of his team, Paul’s rookie season looks very similar to the one Jason Kidd had ten years ago. Paul was nearly a unanimous Rookie of the Year selection. Utah’s “analyst” Ron Boone was the only voter in the country who decided Paul did not have the best rookie year. He instead selected Utah guard Deron Williams. Williams ended up finishing sixth in ROY voting. Boone’s explanation was “Deron finished the year stronger than Chris Paul”. Well, what about the other five rookies he finished behind? Deron wasn’t even a starter for half the year, and was only the fifth best player on a team that barely finished ahead of the Hornets. Boone’s other argume"nt was “Deron outplayed Paul in their matchups.” This is code for “What did you expect? Cable television doesn’t exist in Utah!” ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Peja Stojakovic (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’10” Weight: 229 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Yugoslavia Years Pro: 9 Age: 29 Jersey Number: 16 Position: SF 2nd Pos: PF (from N/A) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: White SHOES Shoe Manuf: Reebok Shoe Style: The Arrival Shoe Color: Yellow ATTRIBUTES Overall 84 Close 97 Med 89 3pt 87 (up from 85) FT 92 Layup 79 Dunk 64 Handle 73 Pass 56 PostOff 76 PostDef 67 Block 55 (up from 52) Steal 55 RebOff 69 RebDef 73 (down from 76) Speed 74 Stam 90 Dur 75 (up from 70) DefAwr 68 OffAwr 87 Fastbreak 85 Potential 79 Playing Time 33 (from 37 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 73 (up from 58) Close Tendency 75 (down from 80) Med Tendency 88 3pt Tendency 65 Drive Tendency 68 Dunk Tendency 15 Back To Basket 40 TripleThreat 58 Fadeaway 90 HookShot 60 Putback 12 FlashyPass 12 Foul 32 Pass Interception 44 On Ball Steal 42 Contested Shot 6 SIGNATURE Jumper: Stojakovic Post: Normal AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 74 All-Star selections: 3 (2002-2004) All-NBA Second Team: 1 (2004) Long Distance Shootout Champion: 2 (2002, 2003) Playoff Experience: Conference Finals 1x, Second Round 3x, First Round 4x (59 games, 17.1 ppg) Former Teams: Kings (518), Pacers (40) Current Team: Hornets (13) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/predrag_stojakovic/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/predrag_stojakovic.htm http://nbadraft.net/pejainterview.asp http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peja_Stojakovic http://www.82games.com/0506/05SAC8D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0506/05IND10D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06NOK9D.HTM NOTES In 2004 Peja had one of the best seasons for a spot up shooter ever, only rivaled by Reggie Miller and Glen Rice’s career years. Saw his points spike only because Webber was injured though. He was hyped as hell to win the 3pt shootout for the third straight year (insert unfounded Larry Bird comparison here), and then ended up losing it by missing his final shot. Somewhere, Larry Legend (who signaled that his own shot to win the 3pt shootout was good before it even went in) was probably laughing hysterically. Bird eventually aquired Peja in exchange for Ron Artest, and then let him sign with the Hornets for far more than he’s worth. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- David West (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’9” Weight: 240 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Xavier (OH) Years Pro: 4 Age: 26 Jersey Number: 30 Position: PF 2nd Pos: N/A ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: White SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 84 (up from 83) Close 89 Med 76 (up from 75) 3pt 72 (up from 67) FT 82 (down from 84) Layup 60 Dunk 73 Handle 67 (up from 65) Pass 59 (up from 54) PostOff 80 PostDef 75 Block 73 (down from 76) Steal 63 RebOff 80 RebDef 84 (up from 82) Speed 65 Stam 80 Dur 75 DefAwr 78 (up from 76) OffAwr 83 (up from 81) Fastbreak 75 Potential 72 (up from 62) Playing Time 36 (from 10) (from 35 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 78 (up from 68) Close Tendency 75 Med Tendency 50 (up from 45) 3pt Tendency 2 Drive Tendency 35 Dunk Tendency 60 (down from 70) Back To Basket 60 TripleThreat 35 Fadeaway 45 HookShot 60 Putback 58 FlashyPass 10 Foul 41 Pass Interception 22 On Ball Steal 22 Contested Shot 44 SIGNATURE Jumper: Bent Arm Post: Quick AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 30 Playoff Experience: First Round 1x (7 games, 5.9 ppg) Current Team: Hornets (227) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/david_west/index.html http://www.nba.com/draft2003/profiles/WestDavid.html http://www.nba.com/suns/news/qa_west.html http://www.nba.com/awards2006/thecase_improved_dawest.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/david_west.htm http://www.nbadraft.net/profiles/davidwest.htm http://www.insidehoops.com/west-interview-020706.shtml http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_West http://www.82games.com/0506/05NOK10D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06NOK12D.HTM NOTES West came in second in 2006’s Most Improved Player voting.

He’s certainly going to have the rebounding, athleticism, and shot blocking of KG, but not the rest of his perimeter skills. As far as Chandler has come as a player, trading a bonafide all-star talent in Elton Brand has to be one of the worst trades in Bulls history.

Marbury was somewhat unfairly criticized when Jason Kidd took the Nets to the Finals. Marbury never got to play with Van Horn, Kittles, and Martin healthy, and he never had Jefferson, Collins, or MacCulloch on his team either. Of course, the fact that it took the addition of Amare to get the Suns back to the playoffs should also say something… Isiah Thomas is currently trying to build the Knicks around Marbury. The problem is, it’s hard to build around someone who doesn’t generally make his teammates better. Isiah seemingly trades away anybody who shows any semblance of chemistry with Marbury (Keith Van Horn, Michael Doleac, Kurt Thomas), so one has to wonder if he actually has some sort of grand vision when he brings in another guard that likes to shoot a lot (Jamal Crawford). ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Jamal Crawford (EDITED IN ONLINE DOWNLOAD) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’5” Weight: 190 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Michigan Years Pro: 7 Age: 26 Jersey Number: 11 Position: SG 2nd Pos: PG ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: Team Strap R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Reebok Shoe Style: The Arrival Shoe Color: Blue ATTRIBUTES Overall 83 (up from 81) (from 80 default) Close 87 Med 83 (up from 78) 3pt 79 (down from 80) FT 83 Layup 93 (down from 96) Dunk 72 (down from 84) Handle 90 Pass 74 (up from 67) PostOff 65 (down from 70) PostDef 62 (down from 65) Block 53 Steal 74 (down from 76) RebOff 56 RebDef 57 (down from 60) Speed 88 (up from 85) Stam 95 Dur 75 DefAwr 75 OffAwr 83 (up from 80) Fastbreak 95 Potential 79 Playing Time 36 (from 33 default) ClutchOff 75 (Hidden Rating) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 69 (up from 54) Close Tendency 65 (down from 70) Med Tendency 75 3pt Tendency 62 (up from 47) Drive Tendency 72 Dunk Tendency 20 (down from 40) Back To Basket 30 (down from 40) TripleThreat 80 Fadeaway 75 HookShot 30 (down from 40) Putback 6 FlashyPass 39 (up from 34) Foul 28 Pass Interception 44 On Ball Steal 49 Contested Shot 8 SIGNATURE Jumper: Crawford Post: Normal AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 55 Playoff Experience: None Former Teams: Bulls (244) Current Team: Knicks (208) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/jamal_crawford/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/jamal_crawford.htm http://nbadraft.net/profiles/jamalcrawford.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jamal_Crawford http://www.82games.com/0506/05NYK4D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06NYK4D.HTM NOTES Crawford signed a 7-year contract with NY, so the Knicks better hope he and Marbury can play together.

The Bulls didn’t want to sign him and watch him drop dead on the court like Reggie Lewis did with the Celtics in the early 90s, so they dealt him to the Knicks for what amounted to the 2006 #2 pick, the right to swap picks with the Knicks in 2007, two second round picks, Mike Sweetney, and Tim Thomas. While many people are quick to say the Bulls won this deal because the Knicks gave up so many picks, I am quick to note that the Bulls also took on the salary of Tim Thomas which was 13 million dollars, a lot to pay a player they had no intention of using (especially in the luxury tax era), particularly when they could have let Curry walk and not pay any salary. The Bulls essentially bought a draft choice off the Knicks for 13 million. The fact that they haven’t put Sweetney to use either seems to throw the trade in the Knicks favor. Tyrus Thomas is nice but I’d rather have Curry (a borderline all-star) right now, and it appears the Knicks will draft high enough that it shouldn’t cost them too much to swap picks, the Bulls might go from the 20th to the 10th pick. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Quentin Richardson VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’6” Weight: 238 (NBA.com listed 230) Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: DePaul Years Pro: 7 Age: 26 Jersey Number: 23 Position: SF 2nd Pos: SG ACCESSORIES Headband: Headband 1 L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: Team Band R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: Team Wrist Band L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Long H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 80 (up from 77) Close 84 (down from 89) Med 78 3pt 83 (up from 79) FT 68 (up from 67) Layup 84 Dunk 69 (down from 72) Handle 78 (down from 80) Pass 61 (up from 57) PostOff 73 PostDef 69 Block 54 (up from 52) Steal 62 (down from 65) RebOff 74 RebDef 84 (up from 72) Speed 80 (down from 85) Stam 90 Dur 80 DefAwr 72 (up from 67) OffAwr 79 (up from 73) Fastbreak 85 Potential 78 Playing Time 34 (from 26 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 56 (up from 46) Close Tendency 65 (down from 70) Med Tendency 65 (down from 75) 3pt Tendency 63 (up from 53) Drive Tendency 66 (down from 71) Dunk Tendency 25 Back To Basket 60 TripleThreat 75 Fadeaway 75 HookShot 60 Putback 16 FlashyPass 12 Foul 46 Pass Interception 42 On Ball Steal 39 Contested Shot 14 SIGNATURE Jumper: Q.

With a 42-inch vertical leap, he won this year’s dunk contest. The most impressive of his dunks was jumping over Spud Webb, on the 20th anniversary of Spud’s improbable dunk contest victory. Nate was told by Larry Brown to work on his PG skills over the summer. If Nate can ever develop those areas, he could become the best player less than six feet tall that the league has seen. Where was Boykins at this stage of his career? He was undrafted and fighting to stick in the league every year. Nate has the advantage of job security since he was a first round pick, he can work with NBA players and coaches rather than bounce around the minor leagues. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Jared Jeffries (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’11” Weight: 230 (NBA.com listed 240) Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Indiana Years Pro: 5 Age: 25 Jersey Number: 20 Position: SF (from SG default) 2nd Pos: PF (from SF default) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: Team Band R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: Team Brace Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 74 (down from 75) (from 74 default) Close 72 (up from 70) Med 70 (down from 73) 3pt 67 (down from 74) FT 58 (down from 59) Layup 69 Dunk 75 (up from 68) Handle 73 Pass 59 PostOff 70 (up from 67) PostDef 78 (up from 65) Block 73 (down from 76) Steal 76 (up from 71) RebOff 85 RebDef 68 (down from 71) Speed 73 (up from 70) Stam 85 Dur 80 DefAwr 82 OffAwr 66 (down from 69) Fastbreak 75 Potential 68 Playing Time 21 (down from 30) (from 27) (from 10) (from 25 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 33 Close Tendency 55 Med Tendency 40 3pt Tendency 12 Drive Tendency 55 Dunk Tendency 55 Back To Basket 40 TripleThreat 55 Fadeaway 40 HookShot 40 Putback 54 FlashyPass 48 Foul 59 Pass Interception 39 On Ball Steal 36 Contested Shot 36 SIGNATURE Jumper: Jeffries Post: Strong AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: N/A Playoff Experience: Second Round 1x, First Round 1x (16 games, 7.0 ppg) Former Teams: Wizards (256) Current Team: Knicks (55) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/jared_jeffries/index.html http://www.nba.com/draft2002/profiles/jared_jeffries.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/jared_jeffries.htm http://www.nbadraft.net/profiles/jaredjeffries.htm http://www.ibiblio.org/craig/draft/2002_draft/Players/jeffries.shtml http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jared_Jeffries http://www.82games.com/0506/05WAS10D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06NYK8D.HTM NOTES Another backup level player the Knicks threw the MLE at.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malik_Rose http://www.82games.com/0506/05NYK14D.HTM NOTES Rose was acquired by the Knicks in another one of Isiah’s headscratching trades. Despite having a larger contract and being less valuable (backup PF) than Nazr Mohammed (starting C), Isiah thought it fit to make this trade. On the bright side, they got lucky and picked up the draft choice that eventually became David Lee. Unfortunately for Rose, not only was he traded to the Knicks, but he also missed out on winning his third championship with the Spurs. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Jerome James (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 7’1” Weight: 272 (NBA.com listed 280) Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Florida A&M Years Pro: 9 Age: 31 Jersey Number: 31 Position: C 2nd Pos: N/A ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: Black Strap Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Nike Shoe Style: Air Max Elite Shoe Color: Blue ATTRIBUTES Overall 70 (up from 67) Close 70 (down from 75) Med 61 (up from 50) 3pt 50 FT 62 (down from 68) Layup 50 Dunk 67 Handle 50 Pass 50 (down from 57) PostOff 71 (up from 68) PostDef 74 Block 84 (up from 76) Steal 58 RebOff 79 (up from 76) RebDef 80 (up from 70) Speed 55 Stam 75 Dur 70 DefAwr 63 (down from 68) OffAwr 54 Fastbreak 60 Potential 65 Playing Time 10 TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 45 (up from 40) Close Tendency 60 Med Tendency 20 3pt Tendency 0 (down from 10) Drive Tendency 15 Dunk Tendency 65 Back To Basket 50 (up from 40) TripleThreat 15 Fadeaway 20 HookShot 50 (up from 40) Putback 40 FlashyPass 4 Foul 82 Pass Interception 12 On Ball Steal 12 Contested Shot 88 AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: N/A Playoff Experience: Second Round 1x, First Round 2x (17 games, 9.4 ppg) Former Teams: Kings (16), Sonics (252) Current Team: Knicks (85) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/jerome_james/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/jerome_james.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerome_James http://www.82games.com/04SEA15D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0506/05NYK19D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06NYK15D.HTM NOTES Averaged more fouls (3.5) than rebounds (3.0) in 04-05.

Poor McGrady never got to have a healthy Hill on the court. People forget that McGrady was supposed to be the third option in Orlando, that they were INCREDIBLY CLOSE to signing Tim Duncan that summer in addition to Hill/T-Mac. Duncan/McGrady is a duo that rivals Shaq/Kobe. Duncan/Hill/McGrady would have obliterated it, and quite possibly could have been the best team of all-time. However, Duncan decided to stay in San Antonio (and win more rings in 2003 and 2005), while Hill went down, and McGrady developed into a superstar. It truly is a “what-if” scenario that is interesting to think about.

He really put himself on the map by leading the Puerto Rican Olympic Team to victory against the US in blowout fashion, which was the first loss the US had suffered in the Dream Team era. He was not drafted, and played in Spain for a year. He easily won the starting PG job in Utah after Stockton’s retirement. At the time NBA 2k had Arroyo rated 58 overall, which probably made him the most underrated basketball player in a video game ever. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Keyon Dooling (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’3” Weight: 190 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Missouri Years Pro: 7 Age: 26 Jersey Number: 5 Position: SG (from PG) 2nd Pos: PG (from SG) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: Black Band R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: Wht Wrist Band R Wrist Band: Wht Wrist Band L Knee Pad: Black Strap R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 77 (up from 72) Close 77 (up from 75) Med 75 (up from 71) 3pt 75 FT 81 (down from 83) Layup 91 Dunk 82 (up from 80) Handle 89 Pass 60 (down from 63) PostOff 54 PostDef 52 Block 55 (up from 52) Steal 79 RebOff 53 RebDef 53 Speed 96 (up from 93) Stam 90 Dur 80 DefAwr 76 OffAwr 75 (up from 72) Fastbreak 95 Potential 70 Playing Time 23 TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 54 Close Tendency 30 Med Tendency 50 3pt Tendency 28 (up from 18) Drive Tendency 58 (up from 53) Dunk Tendency 30 Back To Basket 10 TripleThreat 70 Fadeaway 30 HookShot 10 Putback 0 FlashyPass 40 Foul 67 Pass Interception 20 On Ball Steal 20 Contested Shot 10 SIGNATURE Jumper: Smooth Post: Default AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 27 Playoff Experience: Conference Finals 1x (15 games, 7.3 ppg) Former Teams: Clippers (203), Heat (74) Current Team: Magic (50) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/keyon_dooling/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/keyon_dooling.htm http://www2.sportsnet.ca/basketball/nba/players/Keyon_Dooling/ http://probasketball.about.com/od/player1/v/doolingallen06.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyon_Dooling http://www.82games.com/0506/05ORL3D.HTM NOTES ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Darko Milicic (NEW-Edit, POSITION CHANGED) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 7’0” Weight: 245 (Listed 275 @ nba.com) Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Left College: Serbia-Montenegro Years Pro: 4 Age: 21 Jersey Number: 31 Position: C (from PF) (from C default) 2nd Pos: PF (from C) (from PF default) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 75 (up from 71) (from 72 default) Close 75 (down from 79) Med 68 (down from 70) 3pt 52 (up from 50) FT 61 (down from 62) Layup 64 Dunk 67 Handle 67 Pass 57 PostOff 69 PostDef 72 (up from 62) Block 91 (down from 94) Steal 62 (up from 57) RebOff 83 (up from 76) RebDef 81 (up from 77) Speed 67 Stam 80 Dur 75 (up from 70) DefAwr 68 (up from 58) OffAwr 64 (up from 61) Fastbreak 75 Potential 78 Playing Time 31 (down from 34) (from 20 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 45 Close Tendency 60 Med Tendency 40 (down from 60) 3pt Tendency 4 Drive Tendency 20 Dunk Tendency 50 Back To Basket 50 TripleThreat 20 Fadeaway 60 HookShot 50 Putback 26 FlashyPass 6 Foul 65 Pass Interception 12 On Ball Steal 12 Contested Shot 80 (up from 50) SIGNATURE Jumper: Clumsy Post: Strong AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: N/A Playoff Experience: NBA Finals 2x (1 ring, 17 games, 0.4 ppg) Former Teams: Pistons (96) Current Team: Magic (30) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/darko_milicic/index.html http://www.nba.com/draft2003/profiles/MilicicDarko.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/darko_milicic.htm http://www.hoopshype.com/interviews/milicic_sierra.htm http://www.nbadraft.net/profiles/darkomilicic.htm http://www.insidehoops.com/milicic-interview-021804.shtml http://www.petitiononline.com/fd101010/petition.html http://thedraftreview.com/history/drafted2003/Milicic-Darko.htm http://www.ibiblio.org/craig/draft/2003_draft/Players/milicic.shtml http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darko_Milicic http://www.82games.com/0506/05DET13D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0506/05ORL17D.HTM VIDEO http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N6Y7WtlRjVM NOTES Was the youngest player in the league his rookie year, in fact I think he was the youngest in league history since he had to get special permission from David Stern to bend the rules so he could enter the draft (actually second youngest, Jermaine O’Neal was youngest, but only international players had to go through certain age restrictions). I guess the question we’ll never know the answer to is – If Detroit knew they were going to get Rasheed Wallace, would they have drafted Carmelo Anthony instead? Since they won the title without Melo, it doesn’t appear that they needed him, but with Sheed, Big Ben, and now Antonio McDyess, there isn’t exactly PT on the horizon for Darko. Not much went right for Darko in his rookie year. He shot .262 from the field, but still won a ring with Detroit. Even that wasn’t without drawback, as he injured himself in the waning minutes of garbage time in game five, which led to him missing the Olympics (a stage that would have been a good look at what the kid can really do). The Darko era in Detroit mercifully came to an end as he was traded to Orlando, where he could form a twin towers dynasty with Dwight Howard, or flop altogether. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Trevor Ariza (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’8” Weight: 200 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: UCLA Years Pro: 3 Age: 21 Jersey Number: 1 Position: SF 2nd Pos: SG ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Nike Shoe Style: Air Huarache Elite Shoe Color: Blue ATTRIBUTES Overall 74 (up from 70) Close 72 (up from 67) Med 66 (down from 68) 3pt 60 (down from 65) FT 64 (up from 61) Layup 84 (down from 88) Dunk 92 (from 82 default) Handle 76 Pass 60 (up from 57) PostOff 69 (up from 66) PostDef 68 (up from 61) Block 63 (up from 58) Steal 86 RebOff 83 (up from 79) RebDef 77 Speed 82 (up from 78) Stam 90 Dur 75 DefAwr 82 OffAwr 67 (up from 58) Fastbreak 85 Potential 70 Playing Time 23 (from 20) (from 14 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 48 (up from 43) Close Tendency 40 Med Tendency 35 (down from 50) 3pt Tendency 2 Drive Tendency 65 Dunk Tendency 55 Back To Basket 40 TripleThreat 65 Fadeaway 50 HookShot 40 Putback 42 FlashyPass 12 Foul 49 Pass Interception 76 On Ball Steal 78 Contested Shot 22 SIGNATURE Jumper: Bowed Arm Post: Normal AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: N/A Playoff Experience: None Former Teams: Knicks (116) Current Team: Magic (21) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/trevor_ariza/index.html http://www.nba.com/draft2004/profiles/TrevorAriza.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/trevor_ariza.htm http://www.nbadraft.net/profiles/trevor_ariza.asp http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/basketball/nba/2004/draft/players/1666 7.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trevor_Ariza http://www.82games.com/04NYK9D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0506/05NYK11D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0506/05ORL9D.HTM NOTES Ariza is the youngest Knick to ever play in a regular season game (Carl Braun at 20 years of age held the record for around 50 years, and Maciej Lampe at 18 only played for the Knicks during preseason). ----------------------------------------------------------------------- J.J.

Quite stupid of him, eh? Well don’t worry; he wasn’t the stupidest one in this whole affair. Sixers GM Billy King gave Green the exact same contract the following summer. What exactly has changed between then and now? Green was never worth the contract to begin with, and an injury only gives King pause, rather than getting him to scrap the whole idea? ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Kevin Ollie (NEW-Edit, EDITED IN ONLINE DOWNLOAD) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’3” (from 6’4”) Weight: 195 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Connecticut Years Pro: 10 Age: 34 Jersey Number: 12 Position: PG 2nd Pos: SG (from N/A) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Nike Shoe Style: Air Huarache Elite Shoe Color: Red ATTRIBUTES Overall 73 (up from 69) (from 66 default) Close 60 Med 71 (up from 70) 3pt 70 FT 82 (down from 84) Layup 79 Dunk 57 Handle 82 Pass 77 (up from 62) PostOff 54 PostDef 64 (up from 59) Block 51 Steal 72 RebOff 55 RebDef 59 Speed 81 Stam 75 Dur 80 DefAwr 82 (up from 79) (from 68 default) OffAwr 70 Fastbreak 85 Potential 54 Playing Time 17 (down from 25) (from 12 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 24 Close Tendency 15 Med Tendency 35 (up from 25) 3pt Tendency 5 (down from 20) Drive Tendency 49 Dunk Tendency 5 Back To Basket 10 TripleThreat 70 Fadeaway 25 HookShot 10 Putback 8 FlashyPass 22 Foul 47 Pass Interception 34 On Ball Steal 34 Contested Shot 8 SIGNATURE Jumper: Silky Post: Default AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 32 A/T Ratio Leader: 1 (2003) Former Teams: Mavericks (16), Magic (19), Kings (7), Magic (1), 76’ers (40), Nets (19), 76’ers (51), Bulls (52), Pacers (29), Bucks (53), Sonics (29), Cavaliers (82) Current Team: 76’ers (149) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/kevin_ollie/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/kevin_ollie.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Ollie http://www.82games.com/0506/05PHI3D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06PHI4D.HTM NOTES Ollie is the journeyman of journeymen. Might eclipse Mark Bryant at the team-changing rate he is going. He also played in the CBA, averaging 12.8 ppg, 3.3 rpg, and 4.9 apg in 132 CBA games. Ollie led the NBA in A/T ratio in 2003, which gave him some value in the offseason. Obviously job security would be important to him, so he signed with the Cavs on a 5-year deal. Good move for Ollie, bad move for the Cavs. Ollie became the third string PG when they traded for Jeff McInnis, which led to Ollie being traded again. He’s now in his third stint with the Sixers, which is good for him. He’s played more games with them than any of the other teams in his career, and he was also a vital reserve on their NBA Finals team.

Steve Nash is one of them, as he was born in South Africa. Everybody’s favorite non- wrestler/hockey player (like there’s a difference) Canadian was named MVP of the league last season (though it really should have gone to Tim Duncan or Shaq). To break away for a moment, just imagine how dominant Phoenix would be if they had Duncan or Shaq playing next to Marion and Amare. They’d be the most devastating frontcourts of all-time (even better than the hall of fame trio of Bird/McHale/Parish), and I’d certainly take a frontcourt like that over Nash with Marion and Amare playing out of position. Not only is Nash the lowest scoring player to ever win MVP, there are plenty of better PGs who were never MVP, notably Isiah Thomas, Walt Frazier, John Stockton, Gary Payton, and Jason Kidd (it’s worth noting that all these guys are also excellent defenders, something Nash is not). When all is said and done, Amare Stoudemire can count Nash’s MVP as one of his own (yes, I’m saying Amare will win an MVP somewhere along the line), and I guess we should count Karl Malone’s two MVPs as two Stockton MVPs to put things in perspective. Not to take anything away from Nash’s MVP, but that’s just how things are. Its funny thinking back that Nash was a third string PG behind Jason Kidd and Kevin Johnson in his first stint with the Suns. When he arrived in Dallas, he broke out at the same time as Nowitzki, transforming Dallas from pitiful to great. Last year I lauded the Suns for signing Nash rather than throwing everything they had at Kobe, but even I had no idea just how successful this move was going to be. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Amare Stoudemire (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’10” Weight: 245 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Cypress Creek (HS) Years Pro: 5 Age: 24 Jersey Number: 1 Position: C 2nd Pos: N/A (from PF) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: Team Band R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Medium H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Nike Shoe Style: Nike Air Max 360 BB Shoe Color: Orange ATTRIBUTES Overall 94 (up from 93) Close 99 Med 76 (up from 73) 3pt 55 FT 78 (up from 74) Layup 77 Dunk 86 (down from 89) Handle 67 (down from 72) Pass 54 (down from 61) PostOff 94 (down from 97) PostDef 89 (down from 94) Block 78 Steal 65 RebOff 85 (up from 82) RebDef 90 (up from 80) Speed 72 Stam 85 (down from 94) Dur 80 (up from 70) DefAwr 74 (up from 71) OffAwr 91 (down from 96) Fastbreak 85 Potential 99 Playing Time 33 (from 39 default) ClutchOff 75 (Hidden Rating) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 76 (down from 86) Close Tendency 95 Med Tendency 49 3pt Tendency 4 Drive Tendency 45 Dunk Tendency 99 Back To Basket 88 TripleThreat 45 Fadeaway 70 HookShot 90 Putback 52 FlashyPass 10 Foul 63 Pass Interception 23 On Ball Steal 25 Contested Shot 70 SIGNATURE Jumper: High Flick Post: Power AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 63 All-Star selections: 2 (2005, 2007) All-NBA First Team: 1 (2007) All-NBA Second Team: 1 (2005) Rookie of the Year: 1 (2003) All-Rookie First Team: 1 (2003) Playoff Experience: Conference Finals 1x, Second Round 1x, First Round 1x (31 games, 25.4 ppg) Current Team: Suns (302) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/amare_stoudemire/index.html http://www.nba.com/draft2002/profiles/amare_stoudemire.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/amare_stoudemire.htm http://www2.sportsnet.ca/basketball/nba/players/Amare_Stoudemire/ http://www.nbadraft.net/profiles/amarestoudemire.htm http://www.thatsamare.com/amare/intro.html http://www.amare-stoudemire.com/ http://www.insidehoops.com/stoudemire-interview-112704.shtml http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amare_Stoudemire http://www.82games.com/02PHO10A.HTM http://www.82games.com/03PHO13D.HTM http://www.82games.com/04PHO14D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0506/05PHO18D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06PHO14D.HTM NOTES Amare was the first high school player to ever win Rookie of the Year.

Prior to 2005, Marion had been to the playoffs 3 times, and each time, he shot horribly. Against the Spurs, I figured out why. Marion is not a good player in the half court. If you take away the transition game, Marion essentially becomes a stationary shooter on offense. He basically goes from all-star level player to Tayshaun Prince. I remember watching the 1999 draft, and was shocked when the Suns took him. I had Mitch Lawrence’s mock draft in front of me, and he Marion wasn’t even listed on his first round mock. The next day Mitch gave the Suns an “F” for throwing away a lottery pick on an unknown like Shawn Marion. This is why nobody gives a damn about Mitch Lawrence. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Leandro Barbosa (NEW-Edit, POSITION CHANGED) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’3”

http://www.82games.com/0607/06PHO4D.HTM NOTES The pure example of how lazy Visual Concepts is when it comes to rating the lesser knowns of the NBA. Bell was by far the most underrated played in the game; he was Utah’s sixth man for most of the season. Yet the only ratings they opted to change were his 3pt (64 from 65) and Stam (90 from 88). They changed those ratings for EVERYBODY. They had time to make those tweaks for guys that retired like Randy Brown and Brent Price, but they couldn’t find time to give Bell the respect he is due? Not only that, but his position is off too, 90% of his minutes last year came at SG, not SF. Last year was an even bigger travesty, they actually changed his position to SG finally, but they still didn’t re-rate him. And even this year he’s still horribly rated. 70 handle for a SG? Get off your asses already, you want to take credit for rating all these players so well, how come you only bother with the top 50 players in the NBA? ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Kurt Thomas (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’9” Weight: 235 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: TCU Years Pro: 12 Age: 34 Jersey Number: 40 Position: C 2nd Pos: PF (from N/A) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 80 (up from 74) Close 84 (down from 87) Med 75 (up from 68) 3pt 62 (up from 50) FT 79 (down from 82) Layup 63 Dunk 62 (down from 68) Handle 57 Pass 55 PostOff 72 PostDef 80 (up from 73) Block 72 (down from 74) Steal 56 (up from 54) RebOff 81 (up from 72) RebDef 94 (up from 77) Speed 67 Stam 75 (down from 80) Dur 80 (up from 75) DefAwr 74 (up from 69) OffAwr 69 (up from 67) Fastbreak 60 Potential 70 Playing Time 18 (down from 26) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 35 (down from 40) Close Tendency 60 (down from 70) Med Tendency 54 (up from 34) 3pt Tendency 4 (up from 0) Drive Tendency 35 Dunk Tendency 27 (down from 37) Back To Basket 60 TripleThreat 35 Fadeaway 50 HookShot 60 Putback 36 FlashyPass 12 Foul 76 Pass Interception 27 On Ball Steal 26 Contested Shot 54 SIGNATURE Jumper: Straight Legs Post: Agile AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 68 Playoff Experience: NBA Finals 1x, Conference Finals 2x, Second Round 1x, First Round 3x (60 games, 6.6 ppg) Former Teams: Heat (92), Mavericks (5), Knicks (455) Current Team: Suns (120) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/kurt_thomas/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/kurt_thomas.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurt_Thomas_%28basketball%29 http://www.82games.com/0506/05PHO15D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06PHO11D.HTM NOTES You know what made me smile in this early NBA season? In game one of the regular season, Kurt Thomas got a layup on a fast break, courtesy of Steve Nash. Last year 90% of Kurt Thomas’ shots were jumpers, and 90% of those jumpers were assisted. It does nothing but add to the idea that Stephon Marbury is not a good point guard despite high assist totals. Assists that lead to inside shots are more valuable than assists that lead to jumpers. In two games, Marbury has 10 assists, and 9 of those have led to jumpers. In two games, Nash has 26 assists, and 16 of those have led to close shots. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- James Jones (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’8” Weight: 215 (NBA.com listed 220) Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Miami Years Pro: 4 Age: 26 Jersey Number: 22 Position: SF 2nd Pos: N/A (from SG) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 76 (up from 73) Close 75 Med 75 (up from 71) 3pt 84 FT 88 (up from 85) Layup 76 (down from 79) Dunk 72 Handle 72 (down from 75) Pass 54 PostOff 65 PostDef 68 (up from 60) Block 76 Steal 60 RebOff 65 RebDef 71 (down from 73) Speed 75 Stam 90 Dur 80 (up from 75) DefAwr 75 (up from 65) OffAwr 75 Fastbreak 85 Potential 68 Playing Time 18 (up from 10) (from 24 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 47 Close Tendency 30 (down from 45) Med Tendency 60 3pt Tendency 68 Drive Tendency 35 (down from 65) Dunk Tendency 30 Back To Basket 30 TripleThreat 65 Fadeaway 60 HookShot 30 Putback 14 FlashyPass 10 Foul 38 Pass Interception 24 On Ball Steal 24 Contested Shot 44 SIGNATURE Jumper: Basic Post: Strong AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: N/A Playoff Experience: Conference Finals 1x, Second Round 2x (44 games, 4.4 ppg) Former Teams: Pacers (81) Current Team: Suns (151) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/james_jones/index.html http://www.nba.com/draft2003/profiles/JonesJames.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/james_jones.htm http://www.nbadraft.net/profiles/jamesjones.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Jones_%28basketball%29 http://www.82games.com/0506/05PHO8D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06PHO7D.HTM NOTES ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Jalen Rose (NEW-Edit, POSITION CHANGED) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’8” Weight: 217 (NBA.com listed 215) Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Left College: Michigan Years Pro: 13 Age: 33 Jersey Number: 8 Position: SF (from SG default) 2nd Pos: SG (from SF default) ACCESSORIES Headband: Headband 1 L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 75 (down from 76) (from 75 default) Close 84 (down from 92) Med 78 3pt 80 (up from 79) FT 80 (up from 78) Layup 81 (down from 83) Dunk 65 (down from 70) Handle 81 Pass 64 (up from 62) PostOff 72 (up from 69) PostDef 64 (down from 66) Block 53 Steal 54 RebOff 56 RebDef 62 (down from 65) Speed 80 Stam 85 Dur 80 DefAwr 68 (down from 71) OffAwr 74 Fastbreak 85 Potential 85 Playing Time 10 (down from 20) (from 29 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 56 Close Tendency 60 (down from 70) Med Tendency 75 3pt Tendency 42 (up from 37) Drive Tendency 57 (down from 62) Dunk Tendency 25 Back To Basket 40 TripleThreat 80 Fadeaway 75 HookShot 40 Putback 8 FlashyPass 18 Foul 38 Pass Interception 24 On Ball Steal 24 Contested Shot 4 SIGNATURE Jumper: Rose Post: Agile AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 88 Most Improved Player: 1 (2000) All-Rookie Second Team: 1 (1995) Playoff Experience: NBA Finals 1x, Conference Finals 2x, First Round 3x (59 games, 14.6 ppg) Former Teams: Nuggets (161), Pacers (402), Bulls (128), Raptors (177), Knicks (26) Current Team: Suns (29) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/jalen_rose/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/jalen_rose.htm http://www.hoopshype.com/interviews/rose_koek.htm http://www.jalenrose.com/jalenrose/index.jsp http://www.bballone.com/jalenr/jalenrose.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jalen_Rose http://www.82games.com/0506/05TOR7A.HTM http://www.82games.com/0506/05NYK5D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06PHO6D.HTM NOTES Rose is one of the better players in the league that has never been selected to an all-star team.

high school was a smart move for him. Given his current rate of development, had he gone to college, he would have been drafted much lower than third overall (and thus would have made less money). Already the guy is 24 years old and in the second year of a six year contract. Had he gone to college and left after his senior season he’d still be working on a low paying rookie contract. And now that he’s having major surgery and is done for the year, he’ll appreciate those dollars even more. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Sergio Rodriguez

He changed his jersey number to 91, I guess to honor fellow nutcase/defensive star Dennis Rodman. Artest was Defensive Player of the Year in 2004, making him the first non-center to win since Gary Payton (however, I still think Ben Wallace’s defense is worth more to his team). The last (and only other) SF to win the award was Sidney Moncrief. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Mike Bibby (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’1” (from 6’2”) Weight: 190 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Arizona Years Pro: 9 Age: 28 Jersey Number: 10 Position: PG 2nd Pos: N/A ACCESSORIES Headband: Headband 1 L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Generic Shoe Style: Generic Shoe Color: Black/White ATTRIBUTES Overall 84 (up from 83) Close 94 (down from 97) Med 83 3pt 82 (down from 84) FT 83 (down from 85) Layup 93 Dunk 59 Handle 90 Pass 76 (up from 73) PostOff 62 (down from 65) PostDef 57 (down from 60) Block 54 (up from 51) Steal 72 (up from 64) RebOff 56 (up from 53) RebDef 58 (up from 55) Speed 90 Stam 95 Dur 90 (up from 80) DefAwr 74 OffAwr 88 (down from 91) Fastbreak 95 Potential 89 Playing Time 36 (from 39 default) ClutchOff 99 (Hidden Rating) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 75 Close Tendency 54 Med Tendency 61 3pt Tendency 66 Drive Tendency 60 Dunk Tendency 0 Back To Basket 30 TripleThreat 80 Fadeaway 70 HookShot 30 Putback 12 FlashyPass 64 Foul 26 Pass Interception 54 On Ball Steal 55 Contested Shot 14 SIGNATURE Jumper: Bibby Post: Normal AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 91 All-Rookie First Team: 1 (1999) Playoff Experience: Conference Finals 1x, Second Round 2x, First Round 2x (51 games, 17.9 ppg) Former Teams: Grizzlies (214) Current Team: Kings (461) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/mike_bibby/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/mike_bibby.htm http://www2.sportsnet.ca/basketball/nba/players/Mike_Bibby http://www.ibiblio.org/craig/draft/1998_draft/Players/bibby.htm http://www.bballone.com/mikeb/mikebibby.html http://www.mikebibby.com/ http://www.mikebibby.net/ http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1667672/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Bibby http://www.82games.com/04SAC1D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0506/05SAC1D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06SAC1D.HTM NOTES Bibby put himself on the map by torching the Lakers in the playoffs. He’s one of many PGs to abuse the Lakers via the pick and roll. Don’t be fooled by Bibby’s low assist total. He shares the court with Webber, Divac, Miller, and Christie (who all rank very high in assists at their positions), and he has a Sixth Man of the Year (Bobby Jackson) backing him up. When he was with the Grizzlies, Bibby was averaging 8+ assists per game. Then he was traded for Jason Williams. What did J- Will do with the Kings? He only averaged 5 apg. What did J-Will do with the Grizzlies? Average 8+ apg, just like Bibby was. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Kevin Martin (NEW-Edit, EDITED IN ONLINE DOWNLOAD) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’7” Weight: 185

that Potapenko sucked for a while. They only have him rated 59 overall. I figured he wasn’t much more. Then I look him up, and I remember that he was scoring 10 ppg as a starter in Boston a few years ago, and has averaged 7.0 ppg for his career. While 7 ppg isn’t great, it’s certainly better than the scrubonomics of 59 overall. It certainly wouldn’t merit 50 in close, 50 in med, and 70 in PostOff. What else can we expect from VC, most of their center ratings are awful, it’s a known fact they don’t pay attention to anyone rated less than 70 overall. They had Rasho Nesterovic rated lower than Kevin Willis for two straight years, for crying out loud. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Justin Williams (CREATED PLAYER) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- *********************************************************************** SAS.

Duncan has been named to an all-NBA team and an All-Defensive team in every single season (eight and counting). The only other player who accomplished that feat was Duncan’s former teammate David Robinson (7 seasons). Duncan is also the ONLY player in NBA history to be named to the All-NBA First team in his first 8 seasons (the next closest is Larry Bird, who was on first team his first four seasons). Duncan is always among the leaders in points, rebounds, and blocks, but his ability to effectively pass out of double teams is why he’s got three rings on his finger. He buried the Nets in 02-03 with a near quadruple double, and Duncan’s passing against the Pistons led the Spurs to victory in the fourth quarter of game 7. As much as people are talking about Miami this offseason, the Spurs are still the favorites to win, and Tim Duncan is the main reason. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Manu Ginobili (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’6” Weight: 210 (NBA.com listed 205) Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Left College: Argentina Years Pro: 5 Age: 29 Jersey Number: 20 Position: SG 2nd Pos: N/A ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Nike Shoe Style: Air Huarache Elite Shoe Color: White ATTRIBUTES Overall 88 (up from 86) Close 94 (down from 99) Med 84 3pt 84 (up from 83) FT 86 (up from 78) Layup 96 (up from 93) Dunk 74 (down from 79) Handle 85 Pass 70 PostOff 69 PostDef 66 Block 63 Steal 90 (down from 92) RebOff 66 (up from 63) RebDef 77 (up from 70) Speed 90 Stam 95 Dur 75 DefAwr 84 (up from 79) OffAwr 86 (up from 83) Fastbreak 85 Potential 87 Playing Time 28 (down from 32) (from 28 default) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 69 Close Tendency 70 Med Tendency 80 3pt Tendency 48 Drive Tendency 85 Dunk Tendency 45 (down from 55) Back To Basket 30 TripleThreat 85 Fadeaway 80 HookShot 50 Putback 16 FlashyPass 44 Foul 42 Pass Interception 78 On Ball Steal 78 Contested Shot 20 SIGNATURE Jumper: Ginobili Post: High Hands AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 65 NBA Champion: 3 (2003, 2005, 2007) All-Star selections: 1 (2005) Playoff Experience: NBA Finals 3x, Second Round 2x (3 rings, 90 games, 15.6 ppg) Current Team: Spurs (360) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/emanuel_ginobili/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/emanuel_ginobili.htm http://www2.sportsnet.ca/basketball/nba/players/Manu_Ginobili http://www.bballone.com/manug/manuginobili.html http://www.insidehoops.com/ginobili-interview-061005.shtml http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manu_Ginobili http://www.82games.com/0506/05SAS5D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06SAS4D.HTM NOTES Was one of the best players in Europe before coming to the NBA.

Brent Barry was the first SG to start in Chicago after Jordan left. “Bones” acquired instant fame by winning the Slam Dunk contest in his rookie year, imitating Dr J’s dunk from the foul line. See, the movie was right, white men CAN jump. In perhaps the oddest trade Pat Riley made in Miami (which is saying a lot), Barry was acquired for the still effective Isaac Austin. Missing its depth at center, Miami lost in the playoffs as Barry wasn’t even included on the playoff roster. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Bruce Bowen (NEW-Edit) VITALS/GENERAL Height: 6’7” Weight: 200 Build: Normal Muscle Tone: Buff Hand: Right College: Cal St Fullerton Years Pro: 11 Age: 35 Jersey Number: 42 Position: SF 2nd Pos: PF (from N/A) ACCESSORIES Headband: None L Arm Band: None R Arm Band: None L Elbow Pad: None R Elbow Pad: None L Wrist Band: None R Wrist Band: None L Knee Pad: None R Knee Pad: None Sock Length: Short H Sock Color: White A Sock Color: Black SHOES Shoe Manuf: Nike Shoe Style: Air Max Enforcer Shoe Color: White ATTRIBUTES Overall 76 Close 70 Med 71 (up from 70) 3pt 83 (down from 87) FT 59 (down from 61) Layup 73 Dunk 60 Handle 72 (up from 70) Pass 56 (up from 55) PostOff 66 (down from 70) PostDef 85 Block 60 (up from 58) Steal 69 RebOff 55 RebDef 60 (down from 70) Speed 75 Stam 85 Dur 90 DefAwr 97 (up from 96) OffAwr 62 (up from 58) Fastbreak 75 Potential 68 Playing Time 30 (down from 34) ClutchDef 75 (Hidden Rating) TENDENCIES Shot Tendency 27 Close Tendency 30 Med Tendency 40 (down from 55) 3pt Tendency 47 (up from 37) Drive Tendency 40 (down from 50) Dunk Tendency 10 (down from 30) Back To Basket 30 TripleThreat 50 Fadeaway 45 HookShot 40 Putback 10 FlashyPass 10 Foul 33 Pass Interception 20 On Ball Steal 20 Contested Shot 28 SIGNATURE Jumper: Bowen Post: Normal AWARDS/RECOGNITION HoF Monitor: 36 NBA Champion: 3 (2003, 2005, 2007) All-Defensive First Team: 4 (2004-2007) All-Defensive Second Team: 3 (2001-2003) 3pt% Leader: 1 (2003) Playoff Experience: NBA Finals 3x, Second Round 4x, First Round 1x (3 rings, 113 games, 6.0 ppg) Former Teams: Heat (1), Celtics (91), 76’ers (42), Heat (109) Current Team: Spurs (469) LINKS http://www.nba.com/playerfile/bruce_bowen/index.html http://www.hoopshype.com/players/bruce_bowen.htm http://www.brucebowen.com/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruce_Bowen http://www.82games.com/0506/05SAS9D.HTM http://www.82games.com/0607/06SAS8D.HTM NOTES Adored by Pat Riley and Gregg Popovich. Only able to contribute on offense because Alonzo Mourning and Tim Duncan allow him to get open looks from the perimeter. Led the league in 3pt% in 2003, but somehow shot them at a better percentage than his FTs (.441 3pt to .404 FT). In 2000 Bowen was waived by the Sixers, and claimed by the Heat. Since waiver claims are allowed according to the standings, Miami was able to claim him before the Knicks. What’s interesting about that is the Knicks were ahead of Miami in the standings for ONE GAME the entire year, and it couldn’t have come at a more inconvenient time. Bowen was able to wreck havoc defensively, while NY never really did get decent backup for Latrell Sprewell. Maybe if they had Bowen, they never trade Ewing for damaged goods Glen Rice, and they never trade damaged goods Glen Rice for grossly overpaid Shandon Anderson. It’s amazing what one day can change. Averaged a career high 8.2 ppg and 3.5 rpg in 2005. Sort of odd (how low the numbers are), considering it’s his fifth season of starters minutes. Bowen also set a career high in FT% with .634.

He played above expectations (which wasn’t too hard since everybody thought that he was going to suck), and was having his best season in years. He was the Knicks best player pre-Marbury. Yes, he was even better than Allan Houston. Van Horn put up 17/7/2, while Houston put up 20/2/2. When the team acquired Marbury, he played very well with him, when it was expected they would clash like they did in New Jersey. Isiah Thomas decided it would be a good idea to trade Van Horn for Tim Thomas, a more “athletic” Van Horn. Too bad “athletic” didn’t translate to inside scoring or rebounds, as this was a total downgrade and the team has struggled since the trade to this very day. Van Horn is currently coming off the bench in Dallas, backing up Dirk Nowitzki (the player that Van Horn was ultimately expected to become when he was drafted second overall behind Tim Duncan).

College: Duke Best Hand: Right Skin Color: 2 Face: 1 Muscle Tone: Ripped Build: Normal Hair Style: Buzz Hair Color: Black Beard Style: None Moustache: None Sideburns: 1 LINKS Notes: Two summers ago I was thinking about getting a motorcycle. The next day, Jay-Will got into his motorcycle accident. Jay-Will’s career is in jeopardy after his serious motorcycle accident. He carries with him the jinxes of the number 2 pick which dates back as far as Sam Bowie, who was famously drafted before Jordan. Other #2 pick gaffes include: Shawn Bradley before Penny; Darko before Melo/Bosh/Wade; Keith Van Horn before T-Mac; Danny Ferry before Sean Elliott, Glen Rice, Tim Hardaway, and Shawn Kemp; Steve Francis was drafted by the Grizzlies but forced a trade to Houston for Michael Dickerson, who had a career ending injury, while the Grizzlies missed out on Baron Davis, Lamar Odom, Wally Szczerbiak, Richard Hamilton, Andre Miller, Shawn Marion, Jason Terry, and Ron Artest. Other #2 picks have not come out unscathed: Len Bias (died of cocaine overdose after being drafted), Alonzo Mourning (rare kidney disease), and Antonio McDyess (three knee surgeries in two years and also taken before Garnett). Jay also changed his name from Jayson to Jay because Jayson Williams (the former Nets star) drunkenly shot and killed his limo driver with a shotgun a month before the draft. Jay is trying to latch onto a team, but trainers who have looked at him say he’s 80%, and he probably won’t be 100% until mid-season. And no, I never did get that motorcycle, just like I didn’t get a car after Bobby Hurley’s accident.

Hasn’t really improved since entering the league, and will probably find himself out quickly if that doesn’t change. Isiah Thomas seems to love the guy (probably the only person in the league who does), so he brought him to the Knicks to be their fourth string PG. Can’t even shoot free throws, he’s probably the worst FT shooting guard in the league by far, and probably one of the five or ten worst FT shooters in the entire league. Little passing skills either. His only value is his defense, and he can dunk. Why don’t the Knicks take a chance on Queens native Omar Cook? Cook can play defense and can’t shoot either, but his PG skills are vastly better than Brewer’s.

They only list 4 years pro for Cleaves, instead of 5 (VC counts the current NBA season as 1, a rookie has a years pro of 1). Cleaves played in Detroit one year, in Sacramento two years, and he played in 4 games for Cleveland last year, he even started 2 of them. That’s 4 years, plus the current one. Not surprisingly, not a single one of Cleaves’ ratings was changed (while Stamina and Durability were changed for nearly every player in the league).

He was the second youngest player in the league his rookie year, but performed better than Darko in garbage time. Lampe is currently on his fourth team, as he is a project that has been unable to find playing time. He is a free agent this summer so he will get to pick a good situation for next year.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerry_Kittles Notes: Was first in the NBA in Steals per Turnover in 02-03, and second in 03-04. Kittles runs on the break superbly, which made him a great teammate for Jason Kidd. As the legend goes, the Nets initially intended to draft Kobe, but Kobe threatened the Nets that he would pull a Steve Francis (refuse to sign a contract) if they drafted him, so they took the safe route and drafted Kittles instead. The Hornets called Kobe’s bluff and were able to get Divac out of LA, which the Lakers didn’t mind since they needed to salary dump to beat Orlando’s offer to Shaq. Kittles was traded this summer to the Clippers for a second round pick to save the team 10 million dollars, though it’s unknown how much the cost will be in terms of lost ticket sales. He hasn’t quite been the player he was before those injuries.

Nobody expected him to beat Peja in the shootout. I remember in 98-99 he nearly changed the Miami/NY playoff series. He was riding Riley’s bench the entire series, and then had 15 points (3-3 on 3’s) in garbage time of a loss. He quickly found himself back in the rotation the next game, but it was too little, too late, and the Heat became the second #1 seed to lose to a #8 seed. Lenard was 9-14 on 3’s that series. His .419 career 3pt% in the playoffs is indicative of how useful a weapon he can be on a playoff team.

A rising superstar cut down by injuries. Vince Carter is another knee injury away from becoming Penny II, but that might be stretching it. Penny was on the All-NBA First Team twice, that’s how good he was. Pre-injury, he was scoring 21 ppg on 50% shooting with 7 assists, 5 boards, and 2 steals per game as Shaq’s sidekick. That’s eerily similar to what Dwyane Wade is doing next to Shaq right now. One of the most popular players in last 10 years, his Lil Penny commercials inspired bobbleheads everywhere. Unfortunately, injuries have degenerated Penny’s game so much that he’s not even a good scorer anymore. His minutes have dropped pretty every season since 98-99 (excluding his 00-01 season where he averaged 32 mpg).

It was down hill for Baker after that. Baker was a three time all-star in Milwaukee, and made the all-star team in his first year in Seattle, but the core that made the NBA Finals had aged and the team was not the same (Baker also wasn’t the player Kemp was even before he stopped taking care of himself. The media ripped Baker and he used alcohol to escape those problems. Baker was nearly traded to NY (a team Baker says he would have been happy with) with Glen Rice for Patrick Ewing in a four-team mega deal. The original deal fell through however, and Baker was stuck in Seattle until Boston took him in exchange for Vitaly Potapenko’s ridiculous contract. Boston then forced its way out of Baker’s contract by alleging that he violated a “no-drinking” clause.

Even coming off a bad season, I don’t see how Visual Concepts thought it fit to rate him lower than Brent Price. Did they forget he was Stockton’s backup during the finals run, or that Eisley’s three- point accuracy, assist to turnover ratio, and assists per minute have consistently ranked among the top 10-15 in the league when he’s not benched in favor of Mark Jackson? Eisley hadn’t missed a game since 95-96 either, until his third string assignment. It looks like they fixed this mistake in 2K4, but in the wrong ratings. Eisley is not good at stealing the ball, so I don’t get how they gave him a 75. They also decided to reward his high 39% 3pt shooting and 131 three’s made with a relatively low 78 in 3pt. I guess this is why my guide is so popular.
