Hello.
I saved the code you posted and viewed the oage and I got no errors, the script worked the way you want it to.
Suggestions
1: Check that the nba.js file is in the same directory as the html file. If it isnt, change the src value to match the correct path.
2: Use firefox to test your pages and download a addon called firebug (here)

I discovered the error is in the array element... leader2[5]... it contains a curly bracket. thank you for your help.
