Mines simple. This is my list of players i really enjoyed growing up til now. This is not in order of skill or dominance. This is in order of who i enjoyed watching the most in my lifetime as i grew. Make urs however u want.

1) Jordan -my All Around all time fav. As is for a lot of folks im sure.
2) Kobe -this guy grew up not to far from me and shit. So i followed and really just loved his dominance and run and gun style when he was on he was ON. Definitely my 1st pick to watch if jordan didnt exist.
3) Lil Penny -lol on and off court in them commercials. Lil penny da gawd
4) A.I. -I mean for obvious reasons. But he was just amazing to watch. Seen him live a couple times.
5) Vince carter
6) Eddie Jones -Loved this guy. So underrated imo.
7) Dennis Rodman -Who DIDNT love watching this guy lmao. Never a dull moment.
8) Jason Williams -Them passes tho smh. Phew
9) Reggie Miller -That 3 was sooo wet though
10) Lebron James -Da Gawd

I feel like my list is gonna get a lot of shit because its order. But order means nothing. This order is more how i remember them as i got older and shit. And its still prolly off a bit even in that sense.

No particular order. Just ur 10 favorite players to watch of YOUR Generation.

Meaning people like me and ill nika and destro can say pistol peete and get away with it lmao

I expect this list to differ entirely from one person to the next there are soooo many great players over the years who were amazing to watch. Its hard for everyone to have the same list

Anyway thats mine.

And as a special bonus. All time favorite ballin movie..

Rebound. The Legend of Earl "The G.o.a.t." Manigault.

Shame what happened to the G.O.A.T, Earl Manigault would have been possible the greatest ever. Heroin man smh. One of the greatest b-ball movies ever. If you havnt seen Rebound i highly suggest watching it asap. Classic

Stockton was a beast. Considered puting him on this list and probably easily could have switched him for a j williams. But i didnt. Lol stockton was the WHITEST baller ever. So fundamentally sound and such a beast. Nothing really fancy about this guy..but dangerous as anyone.

Stockton malone era was nuts for.utah
Always gave m.j. and scottie a run for they money

Also could have switched reggie for peja stoyachovic tbr. But whatever. Peja the GAWDDD

The 2010-11 playoffs were the best games of any sport I'd ever seen. And I remember watching the Cowboys win 3 championships before I was 10.

Watching prime Dirk was like watching the most awkward and uncoordinated gazelle just dipping on his predator. There was nothing anyone could do. You threw a double at him, he's spinning away from the double and throwing up a one legger that splashes. If you foul him, he shoots 40 something free throws without missing. You play him 1on 1 with a big, he's putting the ball on the floor and finishing at the rim. You play a shorter defender on him to keep him away from the basket, he backs them into the sweet spot and turns around again.

In the finals he won with a fever over 102, and hit the game winner with a left handed finger roll where his left ring finger was broken.


If we're just talking WATCHABLE, there was nothing like it I'd seen.

Curry, Westbrook & KD are all my generation.

But Lebron, Magic, Isaiah Thomas, Lakers Shaq & Jordan would be my GOAT starting five.

Thomas was a hybrid point, could score or be a floor general.
