As of right now i am in with the theme of no players that played in one of the current big six conferences how they are configured now (big east, Acc, sec, big ten, big east, pac 10 and big 12) However the players i use had to have played atleast one year of college ball somewhere. To clarify it is the teams that are currently in those conferences. i hope that makes sense. I will call it the Late Bloomers Team

Haven't played bball in a while, so I'd like to get back in with this one.  I'll go with "Bang The Boards".   Each player must have led the league or his position in total rebounds for his season.  No clones.  

I'm gonna have to reload on this one.  I started looking at a potential team like this, and there's no way I'll get them under the $52m cap.  I'll make another theme.

still thinking about this one

Here's my new theme.  "No Cheer For Me".  Use players from seasons of only the Boston Celtics up to 2005-06 (Celtics cheerleaders started in 06-07), and NY Knicks up to 1990-91 (Knicks City Dancers started in 91-92).  So these are all players from seasons in which they had no cheerleaders on their home court.

got the change and welcome to sappy

All right, I wanted to try something I hadn't seen... Ive seen leagues based on 3pt shooting and No defense mentioned before in the forums so I got to thinking and this is my theme...

All players must have their natural position listed as a SF

I'll try with a team of players who appeared in the film Blue Chips.

ok, you guys are coming up with such great themes i'm changing my theme to "NBA Broadcasters"  All players must have participated in TV or radio broadcasts of the NBA.  Team name will be "Walton, you can't be serious..."

gotta ya trd and sawtech....Man I hated Walton in the booth.

My theme is most likely going to be 4 syllables.  Meaning I can only have 4 syallable in the entire first and last name.

Man I remember someone won an OL 'ship last year (or year before) with that theme.  I want to say it was abrondon, but I could be wrong.  It's a pretty cool concept and is very open to many great players.

throughout the season I'm going to slip in the occasional Walton quote...
-   “Mick Jagger is in better shape than far too many NBA players. It’s up in the air whether the same can be said of Keith Richards.”

How about these:

Walton: That has to be a foul.
Snapper: Against who?
Walton: Against the game of basketball.

...and there's David Robinson, who has done so much for the league and w/o his accomplishments, none of us would be here.

"Robert horry, one of the top defensive players in his genre"

That was followed by Tolbert saying "He's not even one of the top 5 defensive players on the court right now......I'd take Shaq, Kobe, Duncan, Robinson & Bruce Bowen over him Defensively anyday!"

Is there a better shot blocker than Vlade Divac?

This game is a celebration of basketball, a celebration of LIFE itself - Walton at a CELEBRITY All-Star Game

What a pathetic play from a pathetic human being - Knicks vs. Spurs series in 1999. In reference to Larry Johnson

Shaquille O'neal wouldn't be near half the player he is today if his toes were chopped off

Charlie Ward Sucks

he's not your vidas...he's not my vidas...he's ARVYDAS

Has Darko become the man who starts 10,000 cars

Kobe will not be denied,on or off the court - After Kobe dunked on someone during the "Eagle County, Colorado Season"

as being a Knicks fan I must give the full Charlie Ward quote from Bill Walton

Host: "Bill, how about the Knicks guard play tonight?"
*Walton turns his head and stares into the camera*
Walton: "Charlie Ward Sucks!"
