I miss Shaq during these times. Throwing an alley oop off the backboard to himself during a free throw attempt was epic. Wish he was still around to do that stuff.

Yup, Shaq was great in these. Trying to crossover Brad Miller from the three point line and shit.

Good intro of the evolution of the game by the Roots during the pregame ceremonies.

That young fella has quite a bit of talent, but I didn't care for that anthem at all, screwing up the words notwithstanding.

Not to go all "old man," but it really is kinda weird that thete isn't a single dominant post player.

Fifteen years ago, we would have had Duncan, KG, CWebb, Shaq, Yao, Pau Gasol, etc.

These teams would get physically dominated by older teams.

All the three-point shooting is killing post-up players. I would like to see the NBA widen the court and move the lines back further, especially the corner 3.

I don't follow hoops but I really like this Westbrook guy. He's crazy competitive and not a pussy, on and off the court.

I liked his answer when a reporter asked him if Durant and him were now cool after Durant set him up on a play.

He had this crazy look his eyes and said something like "he lobbed it to me, it's basketball" :lol:

This dude is awesome.

Just think... At one time, Rose was considered better than him.
