Answer 5

As a kid, I always enjoyed watching Shawn Kemp. Dude looks dumb as a box of rocks, but he could freakin jump. Him and Payton together was spectacular and their showtime plays were truly stunning. And as a kid, lets be honest, flashy players are the ones that stick.

As of now, Steve Nash all the way. I was a fan of Nash straight out of Santa Clara. I loved him in Dallas with Dirk, and I love him now even more in Pheonix. He has true fundamentals and feel for the game. But at the same time, he is naturally gifted and can make some sick plays look very easy. He could make anyone look good with his passes, and I love those types of players.  

Answer 6

As a kid I was a huge fan of Shareef Abdur Rahim because I lived just outside Vancouver and they were my life. Not Im a fan of Nash because he is from my home city and plays the game with such solid fundamentals and finesse plus the fact that he naturally makes exciting plays.
