bird is a got
Bob Ryan got me thinking with his comments recently. He would take Bird & James at the 2 Forward positions over Duncan. I did not consider this previously. With the way the game has changed, how would such a lineup compare?
Classic:
SF) Bird or James
PF) Duncan
C) Russell/Wilt/Kareem
2000s:
SF) James
F) Bird
C) Russell/Wilt/Kareem
James - Bird - Shaq for example

No PG?
Although James can play point forward
My apologies. I edited my post. I meant just in terms of the Forwards & Centers
3) Bird James Dr. J
4) Duncan
5 Russell Wilt Olajuon.
No pussy Lakers.
Kobe & MJ would be a disaster. Magic & James seems like overkill.
I think I would do
PG) Isiah Thomas
SG) Jordan
SF) James
F) Bird
C) Wilt/Kareem/Shaq
PG John Stockton
SG Manu Ginobili
SF Kevin Durant
PF Kevin Garnett
C Tim Duncan
PG Steve Nash
SG Michael Jordan
SF Scottie Pippen
PF Dirk Nowitzki
C David Robinson
lol hh's lists seemingly change every 2 weeks or so
I considered replacing Scottie with Kawhi Leonard, tbh, as Kawhi is one of the greatest Finals performers of all-time, so I know what I'm getting once the pressure rises..
Better make room for Steve Kerr while you're at it
Magic/Thomas/Stockton
Jordan/West/Gervin
Bird/LeBron/Garnett
Duncan/Barkley/Dirk
Jabbar/Hakeem/Wilt
i dont like magic on these all-time teams... when building these teams your other 4 guys are plenty capable of scoring at will. magic just eliminates spacing and would force you to have some weird defensive matchups
J.Kidd/Lebron/Bird/Duncan/Russell or Kareem would be a sick lineup tbh
Yea, LeBron at point would be terrifying. Talk about a ridiculous defensive team as well.
Most of these teams can't shoot, tbh, it wouldn't be that difficult to stop them..
team with James will always look good but I guess when you actually use that team to play a real game (where crunch time counts the most), Lebron would probably be the last one you wanna choose.
Which is why you need Bird. Otherwise you are forced to stick a Stockton at PG. Need 3 point shooting especially if you are going 2 classic Bigs in the Post
yeah, thats why i dont like Magic as a PG choice for these all-time teams. he's the best PG, sure, but if i'm building a team and have access to all the legends, i'd rather have a PG who can shoot from didstance
PG Magic
SG Jordan
SF Russell
PF Timmy aka Old Death n Taxes
C Jabbar
