I used to be a fan of the NBA in the late 80's into the early 90's.  The Larry Bird/Magic Johnson rival along with Michael Jordan's dominance was a great time for basketball.  Since then it seems as though the game has gotten away from the team concept.\n\nLook at the scores, they isolate one-on-one matchups with the big stars (kobe, iverson, shaq, etc) and NO ONE plays defense.  If they got back to a team game, like the college style, it would be a lot more interesting.  There seems to be no intensity in the game any more.

Jay Williams recently tried out for the New Jersey Nets and made their pre-season roster.  Unfortunately, Jay was cut from the Nets line-up prior to the start of the NBA regular season.\n\nHaving lost his explosive first-step as well as his vertical leaping ability, Jay Williams is no longer the player he once was, but according to sport scribes, he has improved his decision making when distributing the basketball and his outside jump shot.\n\nWilliams still hopes to one day make it back in the NBA.  He has be quoted to see his recent dismissal as "a bump in the road."\n\nHope this helps.

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. :)

Partial Ownder of the Nets i believe.  Which means he owns it with some other big wigs.  Also, just some more info on that, i believe he is somewhat trying to move the team from NJ to Brooklynn, NY.

The players listed for the '90s are good, but I think the '80s team would beat them consistently.  I think Shaq matches up well against Hakeem, and Duncan is great, but there's no comparison when it comes to backcourt play.  Kobe is a great player, but still a pale imitation of Michael Jordan, while Gary Payton is nowhere near the floor general that John Stockton would be with this team.\n\nThe 1992 US Olympic team is considered by many to be the greatest team ever assembled, and four of the guys you listed - MJ, Stockton, Pippen and Malone - were important members of that team.  So, I just can't see that '90s group being talked about in the same breath, at least at this point.

No. He was for a time a part owner of the Wizards, but was required to give up his ownership stake when he, rather foolishly, came out of retirement to play for them. (The NBA does not allow player/owners due to the conflict of interest between labor and management.)

The starting line up changes a bit between games, with the last game information available at: http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/boxscore?gid=2006011024.  You can find just about anything about the Nets at: http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/teams/njn.  Also, the whole team roster is available at: http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/teams/njn/roster.\n\nUse your Yahoo resources - they're pretty comprehensive!

Kudos to the person who pointed out that Kidd is bi-racial, and add Bibby to that list as well. To whomever suggested Christian Laettner, you must not have seen him play since the UK-Duke buzzer beater that broke my heart in 1992. He's been a bust and a stiff ever since. I'll side with the guy who said Brad Miller, since he's one of the best at his position period (the hardest position to find in the NBA, no less), and would have to be at least top-5 in a list of American-born, white, active players.

Go Knicks!!!!!!!----- better chance of the Devil Ras winning the W.S. than the Knicks doing anything for the next 2 years.\n\nI think the Mavs will take it down this year. Tgey have improved their defense alot and with their scoring, they are nearly unstopable.

Dude they just lost to the lowly hawks last night. Go figure. The Magic ain't contending this year that's for sure. \n\nBut there is no stopping dwight howard. that kid is fast becoming an unstoppable force and he will be the next big thing, no doubt. just give him another year and a better supporting cast for him and the magic to make some noise in the east.

I have to go w/ the Spurs in 7, based on their experience, past championships, and ever-so-slightly depper bench. (These teams are very evenly matched this year!)
