how good is Larry Hughes?

He's ok. A great defensive player and scorer but nothing exceptional

mcgrady is my favorite player, lebron is my second favorite, but i would have to say lebron is the best overall player in the NBA right now. he can make great passes. make steals and block shots. he can drive to the hoop anytime he wants because of his power and can hit a nice range shot. plus he is soooooo fun to watch because of his dunks. he also averages around 25-7-7. so lebron is the best. no, i seriously doubt that lebron will ever win a championship, ilgauskas is good, but not good enough to help lebron james carry the cavs to become a NBA championship calibur team. larry hughs has medical problems and probably will not be able to play for the remainder of this season and after he returns from his injuries, he still will not be as good of a player as he was when he was in washington with the wizards. drew gooden is a very inconsistant player and will not be able to contribute much to his team against all the good power forwards in the game today. such as kevin garnett, and tim duncan.

i saw him on larry king a few days ago. apparently he seems better now- after the issues on his parents, his supposed addiction, his marriage, his friendship with mj. all these and more (i think) on his new autobio entitled "junior".

Yes of course. He was a brilliant player one of the best Leicester every had.\n\nBilly the red

He's decent but I wouldn't say he was the greatest. Not even close to being the greatest. In my opinion Pete Rose was the greatest player on earth. But i do have a biased opinion because I love the Cincinnati Reds

He's in great shape, and a well rounded fighter.  He has good ground skills and can win with submissions or with his strikes.  He's very good, but I'd still bet on Matt Hughes.

The Cornhuskers are my pick to win the Big 12 this year...  be on the lookout for Marlon Lucky...  he's the best player in the country that eveyone may not have heard of yet...  the key word is YET!!   He's the next best thing to a Reggie Bush type of back that you'll see for a while !!!  Remember where you heard it first !!!!

He's a guy who is definately underrated because he plays on the west coast, bu he is one of the better shortstops in the National League. He has occasional power, good speed, and about as good of a defensive ability as you will see. People forget that he was a top draft pick out of Clemson a few years back. If he played in New York, you'd hear a lot more about him.

I find Larry King to be extremely annoying.  The only time I'll watch him is if one of my absolute favorites is on as a guest.  Otherwise, he's just another click on channel line-up.

Mostly.  Very skilled with the ball and good passer.  There are better playmakers than him, but individually he is the best player out there

He's a brilliant comedian that skewers the right on a regular basis.  Pretty good deal.

he is good but not very good

The man is a great talent... If you ever heard the mans' life story you too would love the man... He was constantly told in his life that he was never going to make it to the NBA... Boy did he prove the world wrong.  Besides the man has shoots the ball well he distributes the basketball and even get a couple of boards.  His work ethic also is second to none.  Gilbert Areanas in my book is GREAT!!!

Yes he is.  He's a good rider but by no means as good as his statistics suggest.  He's got talent but he is also so well established in No. Cal that he gets his pick of the horses up there as well.  Certainly this happens for other 'name' jockeys in other jurisdictions but Russell has made a fine art of it.

Here's my top 15 and why...\n\nMuhammed Ali - simply the best. You can talk physical skills all you want - and Ali certainly had them. But the thing that stands out most about Ali to me is that he took on and bested ALL COMERS - all styles and all sizes - and did it over the course of fifteen years! Punchers, brawlers, boxers, big guys, smaller guys, Americans, foreigners - you name it. Ali fought 'em, figured 'em out, and beat 'em. \n\n2. Joe Louis - Though many boxing historians would disagree, I think Louis belongs after Ali. The Brown Bomber was everything they say - a perfect technician with crushing power. But he didn't have a good chin. Clearly, he fought and beat many great fighters. But through no fault of his own, he competed during an era when some of the more talented prospects never got a shot at him. \n\n3. Rocky Marciano - the man born Rocko Marchegnano belongs in the top three despite his relatively small size. He was remarkable in so many ways that even former greats like Larry Holmes and Ali himself have praised him. According to The Greatest: "I know he (Marciano) would have given me trouble". \n\n4. Larry Holmes - a complete fighter. Used jab as well as Ali. Challenged Marciano's undefeated record before losing to Michael Spinks on a controversial decision. Dominated for so long, he should have an era named after him. \n\n5. Jack Dempsey - maybe the toughest human that ever lived. Dominated for years. In many ways, the first modern day heavyweight.\n\n6. Jersey Joe Walcott - complete, crafty. A man of the sweet science, especially for a heavyweight. Denied opportunity to fight for the title most of his prime, but was still great enough to to get it done long after most fighters retire.\n\n7. Ezzard Charles - really a light heavyweight, but had so much pure skill. Underrated. Had he been the same fighter with a little more size, no one would have beaten him.\n\n8. Sonny Liston - the most feared fighter ever. Mean, enigmatic in and out of the ring. Seemed invincible until Ali beat him twice. Could knock people out with his jab. Literally.\n\n9. George Foreman - he was really two different fighters. The first incarnation was technically bad, but overcame many shortcomings with sheer power and size - the hardest puncher of all time, Ernie Shavers included. The second, more loveable George Foreman was a better boxer despite his enormous size. Learned to pace himself and developed strong defense. \n\n10. Joe Frazier - great champion, hard puncher. His wars with Ali are legendary. Really, a much more skilled fighter than Foreman. But given the two complete demolitions George inflicted on him, I had to put George ahead.\n\n11. Evander Holyfield - I hate to rely on cliches, but this was a "true warrior". There's no other way to put it. \n\n12. Jack Johnson - a cautious fighter actually. Relied on patience, confident that he was so much better than the opposition. And he was. Not a great puncher, and at 6', smaller than one might think. But the most remarkable athlete I can think of. He didn't just take on and defeat all opponents in some of the most obcenely long fights, he took on the WORLD... and won. \n\n13. Lennox Lewis - much of his mystique will wear off as the years go by. Ducking a rematch with Vitali won't help his reputation, especially if the older Klitschko goes on to dominate the division for a while. But Lennox's place among the greats is secure. A great puncher with a great jab. Suspect chin, but when focused, usually won convincingly. \n\n14. Mike Tyson - say what you want about him. In his early years, he was awesome.  This kid was a true phenom. Until Buster Douglas demonstrated how he could be beaten, Tyson whipped most of his opponents before they even set foot in the ring. Plus he made one of the greatest pre-fight remarks ever: When asked by a reporter what advice he would give an up-coming opponent, Mike replied: "cancel the

LJ, he is consistent, fast, patient, powerful...and one hell of a workhorse....not as flashy as Tomlinson (sorry, the initials LT goes to Lawrence Taylor)...but gets the job done.
