lmao at prime Wilt. no ing way a prime wilt could contain a prime shaq.
Agree with Phillip, Wilt is an all time great obviously.. wasn't his fault everyone else at the time sucked. But Hakeem would shut his ass down.
Is it just me or is Hakeem underrated by the media? I don't remember the last time I saw him in a list of top players but the guy was just an animal. Like a more athletic Dwight Howard with a lot better IQ and a very good offensive game.
We're pretending chemistry doesn't exist for this exercise.
For those few prime years anyway.
dammit, you are a stupid too
i'm pretty sure Dwight Howard would put up Wilt numbers if he played in that era. that's ridiculous.
lol 50 points
Magic guarding Nash
ing re
Agreed, but by the same token, where's the love for Kareem Abdul Jabbar in this thread?
C's/Lakers have a ridiculous amount of bigs to choose from.
ing Al Horford could score a load in Wilts era.
Magic in his prime was faster, bigger and stronger than Nash. Of course he could guard him. Don't be an idiot.
ing re
All Nash would have to do is put a move or two on Magic, Magic s up with his godawful defense, Nash has a wide open jumper which is almost a guaranteed make. Or imagine him running PnR with Hakeem, Magic and Shaq would be so befuddled its not even fun, while Nash would have oops to Hakeem every day.
Isiah Thomas wouldnt have any better of a chance at guarding Magic, nor at trying to finish over trees with McHale/Shaq.
Your hatred of Nash blinds you.
Kareem/Hakeem would be a damn good battle. The one guy in NBA history would had the insane hops required to potentially block the sky hook, damn that would be awesome.Agreed, but by the same token, where's the love for Kareem Abdul Jabbar in this thread?
C's/Lakers have a ridiculous amount of bigs to choose from.
Horace Grant was bigger, stronger, was the fastest runner on the Bulls (which includes Michael Jordan). I guess that means he could guard him too.
ing dumbass mexican
LOL fastest runner. Horace was not faster than Jordan.
FAIL
KG suppose to be on the nba team not the all celtics/lakers team
Lakers...All NBA team would over the Lakers/Celtics best players.
My All NBA
Stockton/Gary Payton
Jordan/Reggie Miller
Lebron/Pippen
Duncan/Malone
Olajuwon/D Robinson
Celtics/Lakers Best offensiveperimeter players are no match against Pippen, Payton and Jordan. On offense, no one can stop a prime Jordan and Lebron with Wade sitting on the sideline
Olajuwon at his best is better than Shaq at his lol. We all saw how an older Olajuwon shredded Shaq in the Finals. Duncan & Malone vs McHale & KG? Should I continue?
Honestly, when you think about it, if you name the top 10 centers/bigmen of all time, probably half of them have played for either the Lakers or Celtics in their career.
By this logic, Nash shoulda skull ed Derek Fisher in the playoffs last year. It's not as simple as "this PG can drive by that PG". When he's the shortest player on the court, it's easy to bring help defense over and make him struggle to finish at the rim. Worst case scenario, they could switch Kobe onto him.
Isiah Thomas wouldn't have had a better chance against Magic
Not trolling here, but Jordan would feast on Kobe's defense.
no trollin here but team nba defense and help defense would be obscene. Imagine the no of tos you get from such freakish athleticism and defense.
Harlem, if you're going to factor in where each player played at their peak, then get Garnett and Allen off the Celtics. But then you get into a lot of semantics and subjectivity with regards to who to put where, which is pointless. It's not like Chamberlain pulled an M. Malone or a Parish and played a minimal role for a season or two on the Lakers.
Phillip, you idiot, take your Mavs-Nowitzki centric bias out of this. You don't see Spurs fans putting in Ginobili over Robertson for backup SG, but you're putting Nowitzki over Malone and Barkley for backup PF? Unbelievable.
I like how people are putting team work chemistry and other crap in to a "fantasy hypothetical". If you said pick the best team from all the current NBA players ...yes, you would consider those factors. But since you are combining players of different eras shot distrubution and all that crap matters little. Really teh question is which team is more talented and I still say Lakers/Celts:
1. athelticism: ALL NBA team crushes Lakers/Celts.
2. Inside Defensively I would rather have Laker/Celts.
3. Perimeter defense I would rather have ALL NBA ...
4. Shooting and half court offense Lakers/Celts ..
5. transition all NBA BUT ... Magic running with Kobe Kareem and Russell in their primes would be sweet too ...
Oh and LOL ...at the Kobe proving something. In that setting MJ would be the one trying to prove he was GOAT as much or more to me than Kobe. Wilt, Shaq and MJ would ALL be doing the same TBH ...AS HH said they all have EGOS but those 4 probably the biggest
...Lebron would be honorable mentoion ...
Actually, he was.
All Malone did was live off of wide open shots from shots that Stockton created for him through the pick-and-roll. When it came to creating his own offense, he was nowhere nearly as good as Dirk is.
Barkley was damn good, but for a team like this, I would take Dirk's spacing, skill, and length over Barkley's hustle and athleticism. Neither are/were good defenders though.
Maybe you should stop living off nostalgia and the dirk haterade, you gnsf.
