SECAUCUS, New Jersey (AP) -- The NBA is getting into the reality TV business.

The league will chronicle the lives of 16 players -- one from each of the 16 playoff teams -- on and off the court during the postseason. Cameras will follow them at home, before the game and in the locker room.

Among the players featured are Tracy McGrady, Kevin Garnett, Stephon Marbury, Baron Davis and Paul Pierce.

The eight-episode weekly half-hour series -- "NBA TV: Real Playoffs 2003" -- debuts Tuesday on NBA TV, the league's 24-hour network.
