Go to Duke, there is such energy, and you are guaranteed to go through a good season through at least sweet 16 in the NCAA tourney.  Coach K is the best, too.

I don't follow the NBA as much as I did a couple years ago, but my picks:\n\n1) Clippers- They have the youth and the experience with veterans. Really deep, all they need is time and determination.\n\n2) Warriors- Jason Richardson and Baron Davis are explosive. Now who else? The Warriors started powerful then died down as the season progressed. They need more talent and a leader who actually cares about the championship.\n\n3) Lakers- Kobe scores a million. Need I say more? Half of this team cares about how their stats look so they can get a new contract worth millions. Right now, the Lakers have no hope. They chose to Kobe instead of Shaq and this is the result they are going to get.\n\n4) Sacramento- This team does look like a mess. But who knows? This could be a surprise. The team that was a favorite to win the West three years ago is almost gone. But Mike Bibby, one of the strongest leaders, still remains. All thats needed now is to decide what direction they want to go to.\n\n-Way2Determined

MJ, i don't mean Michael Jordan who I believe is the greatest player of all time but not the most all around\n\nMagic Johnson is the most versatile player I've ever seen.\nHe can play center, which he did as well as point guard.  He can score and dish and post up.  Wow.

NY Point Guards would make great "And 1" players but for whatever reason they struggle with the structure required to play the NBA game...that to say I agree these guys are talented but yes are overrated when you put them in the scheme of the NBA...they run neck and neck with the idea the University of Arizona is considered "Point Guard U"...even though they feature\n\nDamon Stoudamire\nMike Bibby\nGilbert Arenas\nJason Terry\n\nThese guys are good scorers but are not good play-making point guards...(check your stats you wont find any of these guys in the top ten in assists year in and year out)

Absolutely Vince Carter, Vinsanity, Air Canada. He is the greatest dunker of all time, without a doubt

Nowadays? Hmmmmm........the NBA just isn't what it used to be. In the days of Larry Bird and Magic Johnson the players seemed to be so dedicated with such class. I have to say Magic has always been my favorite.......and remains so. :)

Probably Andre Johnson of the Houston Texans. I saw him play in a celebrity basketball game at the Cortez Hankton NFL Celebrity Weekend at Texas Southern University. He had some amazing dunks. Marcus Stroud of the Jacksonville Jaguars was there and he can get up there pretty good for a big man.

If were going for the future I would go with Lebron James. He is the second best player behind Kobe. He is only 22 and was already second in votes for MVP. Make it to the second round and almost knock off the pistons. Great ball handler, defender, driving, clutch shooting. I think the only thing that is not amazing is shooting although he has improved greatly since last season but now he shoots like Iverson sometimes he is on sometimes hes off but the thing he does great is when he is not shooting well he will get to the basket and get a layup or dunk and when thats not goin down he will pass it around and get his team into it.

Dwight Howard and LeBron James. The others have already grown up, but these guys are simply sensational. Depending on how this year turns out, you may be Andrew Bynum in that list as well.

Duke would be a good choice.  They're always good and always on TV. Plus, Coach K. is a great coach.  \n\nAnd even better, Duke is a great school to get a degree from.  Even if you get hurt or don't make it to the NBA at least you'll have something to fall back on.

I love the game of basketball beyond what most people do.  I follow high school, college, and pro.  I played two years of Junior College basketball, and I've coached.  From the time I turned 14 til the day I turned 18 I played 8 hours a day during the summers.  Currently I am 8 autographs shy of having the Top 50 of All-Time.  My favorite autograph is a 16x20 of Larry Bird and Julius Erving-"Dr. J".  Other than God, family, and friends-basketball is my love.  If you love to play, I hope you put in the time to become the best you can be.  I

Jordan with any of the second teir stars is the best.  He is the one player who could not be stopped in the clutch.  His defense was simply awesome and his leadership equal to Larry and Magic.

I think Morrison is better suited to the NBA. Redick was a tremendous college player, but Duke has had a ton of guys who looked great there but that did nothing in the pros.
