The NBA Draft is approaching fast and NBA teams are taking a hard look at whom they can pick to improve their team. Last year a young man by the name of Chris Paul almost single handedly turned around the New Orleans Hornets and won rookie of the year. With his success many teams seem to notice the importance of a quality point guard which is why many teams are targeting Marcus Williams, a point guard from the University of Connecticut. Marcus Williams is a left-handed, pass first point guard that has the ability to make other players better. That is why so many teams want him.

Several teams including the Raptors, Lakers, and Hawks are very interested in drafting the guard. Their is so much talk about Williams, it would make some think he is the only point guard in the draft.

Even though he is highly touted he has had off the court problems in the past with the theft of some computers on campus. He is also considered to lack foot speed and good shooting ability. Even with that said he is a player that most feel has a lot of heart and that should allow him to overcome the negative and go on to have a solid NBA career.

Even though Kobe Bryant is the best basketball player in the NBA he is one of the most hated basketball players in the NBA. He gets booed on the road more than any player I have seen in recent years. Most players that are stars and marketed heavily by the NBA like Dwayne Wade, Lebron James, and Allen Iverson rarely get booed on the road, so why does Kobe? It seems that people see him as a cocky player, which causes them to dislike him. Many supporters of his see it as confidence. As a very hard working player he should be confident.

Others see him as a selfish player. Players like Allen Iverson and Lebron James take just as many shots but their selfishness is overlooked. Another big reason people hate Kobe is because of the rape incident he had back in Colorado. Even if he did not do it people dislike him for cheating on his wife, although many athletes do it. Overall it seems like people dig for reasons to hate Kobe. When he scored 81 points in a game earlier this season people said that a person should not take that many shots in a game. When he only took 3 shots in the second half of a game 7 playoff loss, people said that he did not shoot enough and he was being selfish.

If you take a long look a the situation it all goes back to Jordan. People see Kobe as a Michael Jordan imposter and they hate him because of it. The reason behind the comparisons is Kobe wants to be better than Jordan, he does not want to be like Jordan, and that is what people do not understand. It would be easier for fans to like him and appreciate his game if they analyzed him as an individual rather than comparing him to Jordan.
