Who is your favourite player? 

Post#1 » by ponder276 » Mon Apr 14, 2008 6:32 am

Pick a player who is not on your favourite team. Doesn't have to be the best player in the league, just the one who you like the most, for whatever reason. Explain what makes him your favourite.
I'm sorry if your fave player didn't get his own option, but it only lets me list 10 poll options :( Just select "other" and explain in a post.




I'm a Raps fan, but outside of Raps players my favourite is Kevin Martin. He is just so quick and exciting, I love watching him score from any spot on the floor.

My favorite teams are Orlando, LAC, Cleveland, and Sacramento. My top 5 favorite players are Varejao, Livingston, Brand, Turkoglu, and Kevin Martin. My 6th favorite player is Marco Belinelli. I guess that's my answer.

Some of my favorite non-Laker players: Grant Hill, Chris Paul, Dwight Howard, Caron Butler, Andre Iguodala, Elton Brand, Mike Miller, LeBron James, Marcus Camby, Amare Stoudemire, Ron Artest and Chauncey Billups.

If I had to pick one? Can't decide between Chris Paul and Dwight Howard, but it would be one of them.

Ray Allen, Chris Kaman, Yao Ming, Ryan Gomes, Monta Ellis, Kevin Martin, Jose Calderon, Gerald Wallace, Shane Battier, Luol Deng, Al-Jefferson, and Dirk Nowitzki.

A very very favorite... mmm... perhaps Ray Allen.

Even though I wouldn't want him on my Blazers because I'm not sure how he'd fit, I love watching Monta play. He gets my vote.

Homer Vote, but Roy is sooo smooth out there when he plays. He has got to be my favorite.

Non-Blazer would go to Nash or Barbosa i think.

That is who I go with. A big man that leads by example. I am glad to see that he will get another playoff run.

I <3 Shaq, mostly because I see him as a friendly Giant. Im a stickler for huge guys that look intimating, but they are actually big babies. My second choice would be Dwight Howard as well.

Too many to choose from.

Tmac
Amare
Dwight
LeBron
CP3
Kobe
Wade
Turkoglu

If I had to choose one, McGrady. Just watching his older clips brings a tear to my eyes. He was flat out dominant.
