This nickname will be used temporarily. When he wins the championship in the future, he should change it to a more appropriate name.

"Flying Man" Jordan:

The astonishing jump in the slam dunk contest made people appreciate how amazing Jordan's jumping ability is. As the most successful star in the history of the league, he has almost become synonymous with the NBA. Jordan has many fans in China, and many people know about the NBA only after they know Jordan.

"Postman" Malone: ??

A tragic figure of Jordan's generation. Think back to the finals between the Jazz and the Bulls, when almost everyone was empty. Stockton and Malone were a perfect match. In 18 years, Malone only missed a few games in the Jazz's 18 years, which was admirable. Unfortunately, he retired without winning a championship with the Lakers. This is the most tragic hero in NBA history.

"Skyhook" Kareem Abdul-Jabbar:

First in the league in total points, third in the league in rebounds, third in blocks, iconic hook hand, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar His status in NBA history is very high, and his achievements are the envy of current stars.

His number of steals is in Ranked third in NBA history, second only to Stockton and Jordan. He finally won a championship with the Heat last year. The old Payton is still fighting in the NBA.

"Big Bug" Rodman:

With his fiery temper and weird dress, Rodman's entire basketball career is full of personality, and his excellent defensive ability is impressive.

"Rain Man" Kemp:

I just remember a movie called "Rain Man" by Dustin Hoffman, a mentally retarded man with extraordinary memory. I didn’t watch much of Kemp’s games because in the 1990s the broadcasts weren’t as plentiful as they are now.

"Answer" Iverson:

A small player of 1.83 meters, the No. 1 pick, four-time scoring champion, two-time steal champion, scoring more than 20,000 points in ten years, Allen Iverson Iverson's spirit on the court inspired many people. I think back in the finals with the Lakers, the 76ers only won one game. This game was only won when Iverson scored 50 points. Although all the players at that time Everyone praises Kobe, but Iverson definitely has more fans than Kobe in the world. After moving to the Nuggets, Iverson started working hard towards his championship dream, although today he and Anthony combined to get 70 He still lost to the Jazz in points, but we have seen the results of his efforts. Winning the championship is not a dream for him.

"Stone Buddha" Duncan:

Due to David Robinson's injury, the Spurs' performance plummeted, but as a result, they selected the No. 1 pick in the second year, Duncan, who was unsmiling. He has the same nickname as South Korea's Lee Chang-ho. The Spurs won the championship the year the NBA was suspended, which was quite disdainful. However, the subsequent two championships in 02-03 and 04-05 finally made people understand that the Spurs' championship was absolutely unbeatable. Not a flash in the pan.

Carter's "windmill" dunk with a 360-degree turn in the air is the most memorable dunk scene since Jordan. Today's Carter Still able to fly and dunk.

"King" James:

The young James has become the "King" of the Cavaliers. With sufficient strength and amazing explosive power, James has become the idol of the new generation. .

"Flash" Wade:

As his name suggests, Wade can only be described as lightning on the court. His layups can only be turned a blind eye. Except for a blind eye or a direct foul, Wade can hardly stop him from scoring, so Wade takes a lot of free throws in each game. As one of the three top players in 2003, he has already won a championship and the Finals MVP. His future is limitless!

"Shark" O'Neal:

After talking about so many stars, how can we forget "Shark"? O'Neal is definitely a living treasure in today's NBA. He has absolute control over the basket and can also perform alley-oops and "King Steps". Especially his performance during the All-Star Game was hilarious. Who's calling? Where are the soles of the shoes? Who else is combing their bald head in front of the camera?

Uncle Mu, the "Mountain of Africa":

There are not many players in the NBA who are still on the court at the age of 40. Jordan and Malone have done it, and when Yao Ming was injured recently During this period of time, 40-year-olds can still reach double figures in rebounds for ten consecutive games, and even fewer people have reached double figures in both scoring and rebounding. Uncle Mu ranks second behind Dameng in blocks. His iconic rocker The finger movement was finally recognized as "legal" by NBA officials. What is commendable is that Uncle Mu has always been enthusiastic about public welfare undertakings in the motherland. He has set an example for people in Africa who are working hard outside. I heard that he was recently mentioned by George W. Bush in the State of the Union address. In addition to the praise, a charity match will be held in Houston. I really have to give Uncle Mu a thumbs up. If Uncle Mu enters the political arena in the future, he probably will not achieve less political achievements than what he achieved on the court.

"Magic" Johnson:

On the court, he is Magic. He is the only player to average a triple-double in points, rebounds, and assists. The Lakers have him. The team is also missed. Although he later got AIDS, he did not despair. Now he has defeated the disease and became the leader of the Lakers.

"Glider" Drexler:

I know he was also in the 1996 Olympics, but what is more memorable is that he competed with Jordan in the slam dunk contest. , when Jordan makes a move, Drexler will also make the same move. Even Jordan's shocking jump, Drexler also imitates it. His competitive spirit is evident, but it also shows that His courage, although his movements are not as perfect as Jordan's, still does not prevent him from having the reputation of "Glider".

"Gorilla" Ewing:

Just look at his photos and you will know that as the head of the Knicks, it is a pity that he did not win the championship.
