PG: Magic
SG: MJ
SF: Bird
PF: Duncan
C: Kareem

.....I know Laker fans will say Kobe is above Duncan but that is just comic relief............I dare someone to name a better starting 5 in NBA history than this and its why they rule the All Time list.

I suddenly remember reading Malone's all-time magic 5 with no Michael Jordan in it :lmao

He wasn't being serious...

[HemisfairArena]

Exactly, Milky...he hates that Duncan is considered the best PF of All Time and MJ beat him out of titles...so he leaves both off his top 5 list.

.....I know Laker fans will say Kobe is above Duncan but that is just comic relief............I dare someone to name a better starting 5 in NBA history than this and its why they rule the All Time list.I agree with this list more or less. The closest to changing it would be Kareem I guess but I think its right. Pretty cool.

PG: Stockton
SG: MJ
SF: Bird
PF: Hakeem
C: Russell

[milkyway21]

Russell is my favorite all-time center, close 2nd is Robinson

[HemisfairArena]

HTown...Hakeem is a PF...or are you trying to fit a player into your plans for top 5?

[HemisfairArena]

See what I am trying to say...just look at HTownFan's account in this thread....he/she made it just to respond to this thread...he/she has 1 post. Everyone will do anything possible to say Duncan isnt top 5. Spurs fans need to say not only is Duncan top 5...but he may be the GOAT. Just to set the bar.

PF was his true position bro...He played it while sampson was the center back in the day. i would probably consider him a center more but for the sake of this top 5 team, i feel that he would have been great paired up with russell.

PF: Hakeem
C: Russell
Russell's the most overrated player of all time. He played against weak competition at the center position, had no offensive game, and people call him a "winner", but forget that his teammates also won the same amount of rings as him.

He wasn't as successful playing the PF position. His true position, and the position that he would feel the most comfortable playing was the center position.

that couldnt be further from the truth man lol i made this account because i liked what i saw compared to other forums and i wanted to join...i am an htown fan but tim duncan is one of the greatest players to ever touch a ball...hes been one of my favorite players since i was little but that isnt going to change my opinion on who i think was a better all around player. if i didnt put hakeem as a pf then i would have listed duncan...i was just assembling a good team tbh

[HemisfairArena]

But the point is Htown...Hakeem isnt a PF....so why are you trying to replace Duncan with him as best ever at that position? Duncan has always been a Pf regardless of what the haters say. He had Robinson, Nazr, Bonner, Splitter, ect....at center while he stuck around as PF his whole career. Hakeem has always been the center when the Rockets won.

I wasnt trying to replace anyone...i was making a top 5 team who i thought would be a pretty good team together...its not that crucial. Duncan is a beast, probably the best pf to play the game. i didnt put him on my squad because i was thinking about the team as a whole...russell getting the rebounds and defending the paint while hakeem works on offense and help defense (which he was best at)...again, im not trying to knock duncan by any means.

[ThaBigFundamental21]

Magic
MJ
LeBron
Duncan
Shaq

Try beating this team! They would blow you away. There is nothing you can do about it. I mean come on.

[HemisfairArena]

I get it Htown...basically you would take Hakeem/Russell...I would take Duncan/Kareem. Who knows how that would play out...I would to see it. Best part about all this is Kobe isnt a part of the top 5...but Laker fans want to think he is. I would put Hakeem above Kobe. I would put Shaq above Kobe. Laker fans dont like that.
