86 celtics- greatest frontcourt of all time?

[UpAndComing]

Walton is a great passing big man. He is certainly not one of the top best passers ever.

Nah do your HW on Walton. Dude was an elite passer even in UCLA

 

[Rekkapryde]

The answer is yes

Ironically 1986 was the one year they didnt get to the Finals...

They won the chip

 

[Miggs]

They won the chip

Confused them with the lakers,damn what an old man brain cramp

 

[UpAndComing]

The Webber/Divac/Williams Kings teams come close

But you're right, K.C. Jones coaching, and the gifted passers they had at PG,SF, and backup C made them a top passing team. They would ROUTINELY run dribble-less fastbreaks.
Rebound, outlet pass, pass to wing, layup.

Kings were another great frontcourt

People don't realize, when it comes to basketball, Its a big man's world. We're just living in it

No matter how much the media and the refs wanna minimize them

 

[get these nets]

Kings were another great frontcourt

They put pressure on every halfway decent player to be "the next Bird"
and they couldn't take it.

Bird didn't fold under pressure like the guys the media wanted to be L.B. 2.0

Yep, talking about Peja and that airball.

Breh. We are talking top ten EVER.

(no order) Jason Kidd, Stockton, Bron, Andre Miller, Rondo, Magic, Bird, Steve Nash, Chris Paul, Isiah Thomas, Ricky Rubio, Mark Jackson, Jason Williams. Walton wasn't better than any of these guys at passing and that's off the top of my head. Not saying he isn't an elite passer but top 10 my guy?

Jokic probably already surpasses Walton in big man passing

but walton is still a beast

 

[Amare's Right Hook]

Elliot, Duncan, Robinson

 

[BAMBA]

‘73 Knicks starting 5 gotta be up there...not only are all 5 Hall of Famers, but 4 of them made the NBA “50 Greatest Players in History” list...

 

[smitty22]

I wouldn’t argue no. McHale one of the most skilled basketball players of all time. Bird is Bird, and Parrish was solid.

 

[skylove4]

2 of the Top 10 passers of all time on one team Bird and Walton
Nothing comes close

shyt was just

How is Bill Walton a top 10 passer of all time he was a very good passer but top 10
Bird yes

 

[Raquinotj]

Elliot, Duncan, Robinson

Sean Elliot ain’t even a hall of Famer.


To enter the discussion you need at least 3. 86 Celtics had 4.
