Steve Nash has more MVP's than Shaquille O'Neal.

Talk about unbelievable.

Steve Nash has two more MVPs then John Stockton

Fact: Over the 10 year period of 1987-1997 John Stockton averaged 15.5 points and 12.8 assists. His best individual scoring and assists seasons came in 89-90 and 90-91 when his averages were 17.2ppg and 14.5asts (89-90), and 17.2ppg 14.2assts in 90-91. He also managed to shoot over 50% from the field, 38% from 3pt and over 82% from the line over his career while also managing to average over 2 steals a game for his career.

Yet, no MVP.


Steve Nash makes John Stockton look like Malcolm X.

Does Steve Nash have to choke a b*tch?

Nice line.
lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.

HS Phenom Eric Gordon actually played the role as one of MJ's son in Space Jam. Which is one of the main reason he is wearing number 23 as a sign of respect to his Airness.

bill russell is probably the greatest winner that ever played the game. his 11 rings in 13 years is what legends are made of

Mark Hendrickson was a division 1 power forward and had a bried nba career before becoming a pitcher. Adonal Foyle chose Colgate over major division 1 colleges because his adoptive parents were professors there.

I don't know how to check this, but Russell may have been the only player/coach in the nba ever to wear a ring. Does anyone else know if that's true?

HOF referee Mendy Rudolph used to live in my building.

Hakeem the Dream once stepped on my toes while shooing my autograph ball. He stepped into a limousine never to be seen again.....well atleast I got every other Rockets sig.

Bet the Knicks beat'em that game too.

Serves you right Hakeem the Punk.
DLee is the best thing to happen to NY in Isiah's 4 year tenure. And that alone, though a positive on the radar, is sad as hell.

Before every game well at least when he wasn't injured Darius Miles eats chickien wings and fries.

When greg anthony was still playing he would drink coffee on the bench during the game. he would leave his cup under his chair and sip during the game.

In the period from 69-72, the winners were the Knicks, Bucks and Lakers. In 74-5, his year with Portland, Golden State won it.
