    Default Nerdy/geeky NBA players

    Like the title says, which nba players are nerdy/geeky do you know about? I don't know about you, but I'm always shocked when athletics are into nerdy things.



    Danny Granger
    is a comic book guy, who collects superhero action figures and comics. He wants to build a batcave (seriously).

    Tim Duncan is a geeky guy. He is video game geek who plays Starcraft and World of Warcraft. He also likes to collect swords and dungeon and dragon stuff. He has a tattoo of Merlin from Arthurian lore, and he's into the WWE (could that be geeky?).

    Chris Bosh
    is a computer nerd. I read somewhere that he knows some programming languages and is a Harry Potter fan.

    Kurt Rambis may not be a nerd, but he looks nerdy.

    Im not sure how to respond or contribute, but that was mildly interesting, no sarcasm.


    oh oh oh I just rememberd K-mart I think played violin or something in college. Just looking at him, as a professional musician myself, not a chance he sounded decent, but still interesting.

    Add Kevin Durant to the list. He loves video games and has other nerd interests.

    What is the world coming to when reading is considered nerdy?

    Kevin McHale I always thought was real nerdy looking when I was growing up. Same for Danny Ainge with his wailing desperate panic look all the time.

    Those Boston teams were just nerdy in general. Bird looked like a total nerd. Even Dennis Johnson was kind of nerdy for a brotha.

    Everyone reads...

    As for playing video games, I truly don't believe that makes you a nerd. It just depends how much you play and how much you get into it.

    I just read a few days ago that Andrew Bynum is a computer wiz. He has at least 7 computers that he built himself. He liked taking things like telephones apart to see how they worked and then put them back together. I think there were other things too.
