    Wilt Chamberlain, hands down. Dude was one of the most charismatic players the league has ever seen. The 100 point game, the 50 ppg season… No one was, or will be as dominant as the The Big Dipper. The man held it down for Philly throughout his whole career, even rocking his Overbrook high school jacket in the last years of his life. Gotta give it to Wilt… he was Philidelphia.

    My favorite Philly product is the guy who got his championship ring sized to fit his middle finger.

    Gotta be Wilt Chamberlain. One of, if not the most-dominating centre’s ever. Has the most points in a game (100) as well as rebounds (55, on my birthday) and is the only player to ever score over 4,000 points in an NBA season. No one will ever come close to beating his scoring average during 1961-62 (50.4) because he is such a beast and when someone beats his rebounding total, pigs will fly. With a couple more rings this guy would (thanks Bill Russell) be known as the best NBA player, no doubt!

    My favorite Philly product is Eddie Jones. He was quiet hard working and second to nobody. He didn’t have a big ego so he gets overlooked but that’s also why i liked him.People forget he also mentored Kobe while in L.A.He could just as easily give you thirty and then lock down on defense. I admired his hardwork and quiet demeanor and tried to pattern my game after his.

    I live to watch Kobe Bryant play basketball. We know he has the skills, but the thing that still amazes me is the heart, the determination, the drive to win. End of the day, he will fight until he can’t stand for his team and his legacy, and that is why he is my favorite. Let me show my love for Philly, Slam!

    Tyreke Evans. Not only a huge fan of the Kings, Tyreke is helping bring the program back. I love the style of his game and I think he will be an all-star next season. This guy is real good. Averaging 20 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists in his rookie year! That shows he has room to grow so I love this guy. He is outstanding and can’t wait to watch him in the future! Rookie of the year, McDonald all American MVP. Nuff’ said

    One of the greatest and most dominate players in the history of the game. Wilt Chamberlain. Top 5 greatest player of all time. I’d say second best but all my opinion. Short shorts, high socks, and low top sneaks this guy was the God of basketball. Earning to many awards to name this guy is by far my fav Philly Native.

  • Tony

    my fav. basketball player from Philly is Kobe Bryant, most def., he is the most recognized basketball icon in the world. Unlike MJ, he did not accomplish 2 three-peats with a dynasty built team. However, he is just as much talented as MJ was. He will go down as one of the greatest ever played the game of basketball.

    Sheed was a beast in his short time in college he lead the nation in field goal percentage and was a second team all america. He was drafted by the bullets but played most of his early years for the blazers were he was known for his antics as much as his good play on the court. And who can forget his one game stint with the hawks? Then he was traded to the pistons in the same season and one the championship. The best thing about Rasheed beside his old school bank shot which you do not see in the Association anymore was his antics, known for his 304 all time leading technical fouls. When the ref would call a foul on him he would sprint around the court complaining about the call. Gotta love sheed.
