Default Matching Super-Heros and NBA Players

Since I keep reading "Shaq and Flash" in game recaps, I was thinking about which other NBA players are like super-heroes...

Shaq= The Incredible Hulk. He'd like to be Superman, but he's really more like the big green guy.
Tim Duncan= Superman. Heroic, always wins, kind of bland.
Dirk Nowitzki= The Mighty Thor. Powerful, germanic, blonde.
Allen Iverson= The Punisher. Shoots a lot, and isn't much of a team player.
Shawn Bradley= Mister Fantastic. Those limbs seem to stretch out forever.

Any others??

Antoine Walker as the beast
Kevin Garnet as Daredevil
LeBron James as Spiderman

Allen Iverson is Batman. He doesn't have superpowers, but he doesn't need them because he's a BAD ASS Batman's a bad ass, so is Allen Iverson.

Though not a super hero, Baron Davis reminds of the "Teen Wolf".

Similar playing styles.

If you followed Ironman, you'd know that ironman was always injured on the inside, and the armor helped him live as well as kick ass.
