Definitely Tim Duncan. He is one of the two players (along with Kobe Bryant) that I have been watching since their respective rookie years and feel connected with.

The answer is obviously Damon Stoudamire.

Because I had some redemption card in 96 - I don't even remember what brand - where if Stoudamire won ROY I got prizes. It was a long shot and then he won it.

The prize probably sucked - but it was a big deal at the time - remember how big those "Predictor" cards were?

Iverson. Remember when he went off at about this point in the season? Dropped 40+ in 5 straight games, including 2 50+ point games, hit a game winner, and crossed up MJ for good measure?
