OK. So on the surface this looks like a great photo. One of the ones that will be made into a poster and sold every place that sells NBA things.
But let's take a closer look at it.
All the players are in height order, Dwight Howard to Chris Paul (Left to Right). All of them seem to be posing the same way. All of them except for Mr. Howard, who coincidentally is the only player not sponsored by Nike, Team USA's sponsor. Howard's pose just so happens to cover the Nike "swoosh" on his shorts.
As a veteran of basketball team photos, I can say that it is not common to have your tallest player holding the ball. That job usually falls to the PG.
Hmmmm I smell a topic on 1st and 10.
