good point. I would have said i'm simular to najera too......not that my hustle will ever compare. but my game depends on hard work @ 5'10" 175. najera is like a 6 yr old kid with a nice frame. he was a huge plus for those mavs that wouldn't play D or rebound the b-ball. but since najera is taken i will say i'm like adrian griffen.
Who's NBA game does your Rec game compare to?

wait, you arent trying to imply that charles barkley is right or knows anything about b-ball are you? thats constitutes a capital crime as a suns fan
.jk ofc, i respect CB's view
In that case.. My game is exactly like Michael Jordans..

My game is just like Sean Marks. I'm a good cheerleader who never sees any action, but I'm pretty damn good when I'm alone on the practice floor!
well someone already compared themself to barkley. does that count?

At 6'2 I'm a tall guard. I like to post up smaller guards, while my biggest strenghts' are my court vision and my mid-range jumpshot.
I'm an average rebounder, below average defender and the streakiest long-range-shooter I've ever known. One day it's 0-6, the next day all those threes are layers (the second day doesn't happend too often, unfortunately...).
I can handle the ball respectably but not flashy. I am quick but not fast.
My athleticism is declining with every year, and dunks are soon to be happening in my memory only.
All in all, I think Penny Hardaway fits best for me.

In the court ruling US vs. Fishbine, a man subjected to potential incineration while wearing another man's suit is entitled to $10,000 worth of airline tickets. It's an obscure ruling, but a very important one. To me.
I am a 5'10 pass first point guard with correct ball handling and passing skills and quiet good court vision. I am definitively not a shooter (my movements are not fluid enough). I can grab a few rebounds. I am quiet fast and athletic but nothing amazing.
I can't find a good comparison. Maybe a smaller Jason kidd not able to rebound as much.

yea, that works too (the only guy i could think of like that previously was Ben Wallace)
of course, my only problem is that I am a 5'8'' PF/C (I can survive because I know how to use my elbows)
After watching Jerry Stackhouse lately, I have to say I'm sort of like him in a way...
I've always been a good shooter, and when I'm in shape and playing a lot, I can nail threes, shot jumpers, etc. I'm only 5'11'', but could almost dunk around when i was a senior in high school. I credit that to playing on 8-foot hoops for two summers and doing nothing but jumping as high as you can to either dunk on someone or block someone's dunk. That's all we did.
Anyways, I can drive pretty well and maybe not so much now, but when I was younger I had a knack for hitting crazy shots taking it to the hole.
But as I got older, maybe mid-20's...I realized my jumping gave me an edge over most guys my height and I learned the post-up game. I don't do well with drop steps and that kind of posting, but I can back someone down and then hit a fadeaway that they just can't stop. If you are my height...and I post you low and someone throws the ball in, 9 times out of 10, I'll turnaround on you and nail the shot.
I would love to say Kobe, because I see myself as a good defender too, but that would just be wrong. I can't stand him anyways But Stackhouse is a good scorer, as I've always been, and can shoot from anywhere and also drive it to the hole. I don't know about his fadeaway though, that's the only think I'd take from Kobe, but I'd rather say it's more akin to Jordan
(also, I have insomnia right now, been sick almost a week it seems and I'm babbling...)

Welcome to the Age of Ayton
I've been compared to Nash recently and, when I played everyday and was quicker in my younger years, Iverson.

i'm 5'11 with a pretty much all around game. i can drive left and right and anyone my height i can put in the post because i jump high on my shots. i cant dunk anymore but can smack board on my layups easily.i got 2 crossovers that i use as setups for my pull up jump shot. i see the floor pretty good but my wind is not top notch. i couldnt say who my game is like really. maybe baron davis because of the upper body. i dont know.

I haven't played for awhile, but in my prime I was sort of like Latrell Sprewell. I was usually one of the tallest on the court, but my speed really hurt the big guys and I usually would end up guarding guys much bigger than me. My defense wasn't a strong suit (I was definitely an offensive player--good midrange game, and great driving ability), but it was difficult for guys to post me up because I consistently held my ground. My strength was definitely my speed--and in later years (the past 3 or 4) I would say I was like Shawn Marion, but now I'm more like Sean Marks.

Worst player in NBA history minus 2. That's about me. Baseball was always my sport.

I am going to say Matt Harpring. I can't do anything really well, but can do a bit of everything, I hustle on every play, and move well without the ball.
Sasha Vujacic....pesky defender, push tempo, quick, good shooting. I had a knack for getting boards, small size regardless...it was about timing and positioning....good passer and good finisher at the bucket. Good handles.
Being that I grew up idolizing Magic, I tend to overpass or make the flashy pass.
I hardly ever play anymore and my game has really changed (no longer as fast, can't jump as high, lost handles, added weight and strength) so I don't know who my game would resemble now. I should hit the courts and see.(I've been coaching 6-7 year old bball, so we are on a 7.5 foot rim so my game right now resembles Dominique.)
