A very good role model in the NBA is Steve Nash. Steve Nash was born on February 7, 1974 in Johannesburg south Africa.Steve at the age of 33, a point guard on phoenix suns from Santa Clara that average 16.7 points per game and 12 assists per game is a good role model because he's a very good team player and he doesn't like worrying about little stuff such as fighting and arguing with people. Steve Nash is the best point guard in the league right now as i speak. Steve is a great player to have on your team because he knows how to open the line he can pass and shoot real good. Nash has only been on two different teams in his whole career in the NBA which is the Dallas mavericks and the team he is on now which is the phoenix suns. He was very good on both of the teams.(link)

A bad role model for the NBA players is Ron Artest. Ron Artest is a bad role model because he likes to get into fight wit other people, which is not a good thing when you got little kids watching the game because they will think that it's a good thing to fight then to play basketball. Ron has game but his attitude is not so good on the court so that is a bad thing for the kids. He averages 18.4 points per game and 5.9 rebounds per game(link).
He will be a good role model if he loses his attitude and stop fighting because trust this guy can play ball.
A great role model for kids and people who like basketball is Kobe Byrant. Right now he is the best player in the NBA. He is a good role model because he is a great team player. He can pass, shoot and definetly dunk out of the gym. He averages 27.6 points per game, 5 assists per game and 5.80 rebounds per game which is some pretty good numbers.(link) He is a good role model because everyone knows him and they kno him for his game. He is a major player on the Los Angeles Lakers team, without Kobe on the team the team will go no where because he is their main player right now. I like Kobe because his attitude is good and he doesn't complain alot about whats going on.
Tracy McGrady is a good role model. He is my favorite basketball player in the nba right now. He plays on the Houston Rockets averaging 22 points per game, 5.1 assists per game, and he has a .320 3point percentage.(link) He was born on May 24,1979 in Bartow,FL. As a shooting guard on the rockets he can shoot well and he can dunk like crazy. To me, i think that Tracy Mcgrady is the best player in the NBA, but thats just to me. The rockets in general are my favorite team in the NBA. Tracy will always be the best player to me no matter what. Tracy was one of the few players to go to the NBA right from high school. that is why he is a good role model to alot of teenager that wanna do the same thing he did while he was in school. i know that that was always my dream to go to the NBA when i was a young boy esp after seeing tracy playing, but things dont always go as plan. Going to the NBA is not a easy job but tracy made is seem so easy.
