The Greatest to Ever Play the Gam

There is much debate about the best basketball player ever. Some people say Julius "Dr. J" Erving. Others say Magic Johnson. I think the best to ever be in the NBA is none other than Michael Jordan. He won 6 NBA championships with the Chicago Bulls. He won 5 NBA MVP awards and 6 NBA Finals MVP awards. He won Rookie of the Year in the 1984-1985 season and was named to the All-NBA first team 10 times in his career. The awards are countless but those aren't the only things that made him great. He was always the leader on his team. Everyone counted on him and looked up to him. Michael Jordan was the most dominant player in the game. He showed class and poise that nobody else had. He is and always be my favorite player.

Here are some highlights:
Top 10 Amazing Layups


Top 10 Dunks


We all know that Michael Jordan was the best player to play in the NBA. But the title of the post is the "The Greatest to Every Play the Game." That title goes to a guy who demonstrates greatness in every aspect of the game. A deadly 3 point shooter, quick movement with the ball, amazing post savvy and a high basketball IQ. This guy should be in the NBA but he thinks an education is a lot more important. Especially from an English Professor named Professor Farley. The Greatest to Ever Play the Game of basketball is none other than the Great One, the Pride of the Philippines, Tropic Thunder, the Unstoppable, the Unbeatable, the one and only Virgil "Virgilicious" Quijano.
Yes I said it, I am the greatest to ever play the game. Despite my husky and short stature I am still an amazing basketball player. I can shoot a 3 in your face or take you to the hole. I can post you up or I can cross you up. You name it I can do it (Except dunk and play defense). But who plays defense nowadays? Defense is overrated. I'm a lefty and I am unstoppable. Come test me. If you don't believe it, I lay down a challenge to anyone who is 5'9 or shorter, can't jump too high, not that good on defense, and is slow. So if you meet these characteristics come see me and we'll put my title to the test.

I Challenge You!

The Physical Aspect

One thing that angers me the most is when non-basketball players say that basketball isn't a "physical sport." Some people say, "Why don't you go play hockey or football, those are real sports." This post is for all those people that say that there is no physicality in basketball. This should shut up all the critics and cynics. I would recommend watching the second video without sound because the song is very vulgar.

Top 10 NBA Fights


Really Big Fights


I understand that some people say that these fights are a disgrace to the NBA but its just an aspect of basketball. People only fight because they take the game so seriously and they are very competitive. Nobody in the NBA just fights to fight. In the NHL (National Hockey League) people know that there will be fights so it isn't as exciting an NBA fight. NBA fights occur in the heat of a battle. In basketball physical play is always rewarded but there are boundaries. Even I get into fights when I play. I love getting in my opponents head. I love to play angry because it causes me to want to win that much more. Fights in basketball usually bring out the best in teams because it fires them up and causes them to try harder. Basketball is a physical and mental game, and fights incorporate both. Fights usually end up uniting a team because everyone looks out for their teammates. I've been involved in many fights in my basketball career and I love when it happens.
