NBA Stars Who Can Make It Big on The Internet

The Chris Bosh YouTube videos were quite the commotion these past couple years. His charisma and humour were a great combination.

Baron Davis got in on some of the action too. His "Step Brothers" parody with Phoenix Suns' guard Steve Nash was something to watch.

Outside film production, Washington Wizards' guard Gilbert Arenas stormed the NBA scene with his in-depth blogs and internet mischief.

Charlie Villanueva, forward for the Detroit Pistons, keeps his fans posted with Tweets; before, after, and during games.

Do not get me wrong, there are a lot more NBA stars that have left their footprint on the Internet, but let us round up all the "potentials."

No rankings or countdown; just a nice blend of NBA players who have the potential to make a splash on the Internet.

Joakim Noah

His energy alone can shake up the net.

Chicago Bulls forward Joakim Noah can bring the energy and distinctiveness to the camera. The topics are endless with this young man, which makes for a perfect Internet star.

We've seen his outrageous suit at his Draft Night. We've heard about his marijuana suspension. And we've witnessed his hustle plays during the 2009 playoffs.

With Joakim Noah, you have no idea what you're going to get!

Dwight Howard

From what we have seen from Dwight Howard in the last couple of years, it is hard to exclude him from such a list.

We've seen a handful of Internet videos involving Superman, but many want more footage.

His easy-going personality and enjoyable antics give people in Orlando something to believe in.

Howard's dunk contest appearances are something to see and his off-court gags are not something to be passed on, but with this also come responsibility.

He is the face of the Orlando Magic and has been the focal point for this team since his arrival in 2004. Howard is the topic of every opposition game plan and is the main attraction for NBA stadiums across the country.

The build. The smile. The next Internet sensation.

Stephon Marbury

The rise and fall of Stephon Marbury has already been caught on film. The aftermath of such destruction would be something to watch on the Internet!

His 24-hour webcam stint has not gone unnoticed. In fact it has been the talks of many "PTI" and "Around the Horn" discussions.

Let’s just imagine, for one second, the number of hits Marbury would receive if he were to sign up and make videos on YouTube. He would be a hit.

His unpredictability would strike many fans' interest. You never know what you’re going to get.

Count the number on tattoos on his body, and then multiply by a thousand. The product of this mathematical equation will, hands down, be his total YouTube subscribers.

Kevin Martin

The vast majority of people on YouTube make comedy videos, but there is that small percentage of people who ramble on about certain topics and feelings.

How do you think Kevin Martin will play out to be one of these "spokespersons"? In my eyes, he would fit the bill.

Being the star of the worst team in the NBA is not something to be proud of. The Sacramento Kings made hardly any changes this past offseason. Some may state that they are saving up for the 2010 offseason, but that doesn't fix the next 82 games of pure embarrassment.

You would get to know how Kevin Martin "really" feels about playing for such a poor organization. Besides, it's the Internet; freedom of speech is also welcome.

Nate Robinson

Nate Robinson.

In simplest terms, a small ball of explosive dynamite.

His high energy would make the Internet a place of chaos, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Sometimes high energy can benefit the viewer.

Gets the attention of the audience and doesn't allow any bored mishap from occurring.

Whether he is writing a blog or making videos, your eyes will not gaze off the webpage.

Rasheed Wallace

"Express yourself!"

That is the motto for this slide, and quite so, works for this individual.

Rasheed Wallace has not been afraid of expressing himself to fans, players, coaches, and, of course, the referees.

His indirect opinions might not be welcomed on the court, but would fit perfectly fine on the World Wide Web.

No one cares what your topic is. The sole purpose of making blogs or videos is to hear feedback. Your topic doesn't always have to be about one standard thing. In fact, mixing things up would welcome more diverse comments.

If Wallace were to join the Blogger family or YouTube family, a fury of comments would sure to fly his way.

Yao Ming

Yao Ming has the potential to be the next kevjumba.

Have you seen the number of Asians walking around?

His blogs or videos could be about absolutely nothing and Asians would piss themselves wanting more.

Can someone say over 10 million subscribers/followers?

Other Notables

Chris Andersen: A five-minute video on "how to do hair" would captivate the punk rock nation.

Deron Williams and Chris Paul: Easily the top two guards in the game today and close friends; who wouldn't want to see these guys make it big on the Internet?

J.J. Redick: "The Stan Van Gundy Won't Let Me Play" Chronicles.
