Well there is alot of kinds of players that make the NBA. I would say:
Skill
Athleticism
Height (doesn't hurt)
(Most 1st rounders have 2 of the 3.)
And for some guys (mostly 2nd round guys) luck n persistance.
Some guys try out for a team n don't get past that teams preseason camp simply cause they were a bad match for that team. Right place right time kind of thing.
As for persistance just look at Chris Anderson. How many guys would have just given up in his situation?
Wow, Luol Deng is a great player. But in the video game NBA 2K8, the crowd always boo's him when he shoots. I have no idea why and it is very annoying!
They don't boo him. They chant his name because hes a fan favorite. If you shoot with Rasheed Wallace the crowd says SHEED. If you shoot with Luke Walton the crowd cheers LUUUUKE. Not sure if theres any others.
What you think Hinrich, Deng, and Gordon are trying to replace MJ. No shit MJ was the greatest it doesnt mean these players are disgraces, its not like just cause theyre wearing a bulls uniform means they're disgraces.
You don't even know what you're supposed to be watching in this video. The highlight wasn't the dunk, it was the awesome movement that got him open and the incredible pass Goooden fed him as he stormed into open territory.
To be a clutch/money player in the NBA you need to be able to do 2 things late in the 4th quarter.
1) Post up and produce points.
or
2) Bust people's asses off the dribble so you can create your own shot.
I like Luol Deng but he really can't do either of these things. He's more of a slasher n transition jumpshooter/finisher.
He can't really finish at the rim great in traffic n he's not a good 3 pt shooter (career is 28% from 3)
A good guy but he's really overpaid!

Deng, Hinrich, Gordon, you are all a disgrace to our jersey.
Air Jordan remains the greatest of all time.
Who has 10 scoring titles?
Who has averaged 50% shooting for their career?
Who has 6 finals MVP's?
Who had 5 league MVP's?
Any of these hyped up players winning defensive player of the year awards?
How about 33.5ppg in the playoffs for their career?
How about 33ppg 6reb 6ast 2.5stl 50% shooting in the NBA finals for their career?
MJ is the greatest.
