People you would like to see play basketball.

I don't know if this idea has been done, but I am interested to know which people you would like to see play in the NBA who aren't basketball players.

They don't even have to be people who would be very good, it is a very open question, even if you would just be curious to see what kind of game they have.

It can be anyone: Man/woman, politician, actor, athlete in another sport, pro wrestler, dead historical figure, it could even be a fictitious character if you want.

Just say who, why and maybe guess at what the possible strengths or weaknesses of their game might be. running the break, playing D, rebounding, facing up, back to the basket, passing etc...

Rita MacNeil, because she could eat all her defensive threats.

Chris Bosh, Jose Calderon, Andrea Bargnani, Hedo and Jarret Jack, I would love to see those guys play some basketball, right now they just play.

Nice idea.

ummm, I would go with Prince

YouTube - Dave Chappelle's Epic story 2

Prince would be #1 for sure

you know Marion Jones is going to try out for the WNBA

Renihan_00 · 12-01-2009, 12:38 PM

Superjudge- he's made himself a legend but I've never seen it

Obama- supposed to love it, would be funny

Big Show (that really big wrestler)- dude is huge, no other reason.

Will Smith- Self-explanitory

Bryan Colangelo- I wonder if he can

Little unfair Dude.

I never said a word about anything, I just mentioned that I red shirted like a century ago, you all created the legend.

I think I've been misinterpreted, I wasn't taking a cheap shot man! I meant you MADE yourself a legend, not that you talked yourself up to be one

I was more referring to the photo of you I've seen hanging off the rim

does the phrase "i know, i played ball" ring a bell?

Yeah. It sounds like something I've heard from almost every armchair coach and gm on the internet.
