Some of yall nikkas man :stopitslime:

Jordan played with Pippen and Worthy. Magic played with Worthy and Jordan & Pippen on the Dream Team. The chemistry and ball movement on that squad :wow:

That team would have you down 30 before you got them laces tightened

03 McGrady minus the injuries is one of the best players ever. I'd take him over everyone except Kobe and Shaq, if we're talking post-Jordan.

First of all neither of us saw James Worthy play so we can't definitively say he was better or worse than Pierce. Secondly It's MJ... and it's a team where he thinks he would do best... It's not necessarily the best player in each slot but the player he felt that he would be unbeatable with.

I can tell you this James was solid :manny:, could run the floor/score in the post, shoot the rock, solid defender. The Lakers do not win those ships in the 80's without James, and he carried them pretty well by himself against my Pistons in the finals when Magic and Scott were out with injuries.

He had a chance to carry the Lakers as his team when Magic retired, but he kind of fell then/almost immediately, he wasn't old but had some injuries I remember. He did play a ton of playoff games though, more than likely took a toll.

Yes. Always thought Duncan was overrated. He's great but he also had great teammates and an awesome system that made him look better. Look how good the Spurs are again this year with Duncan barely playing any minutes.


you really believe if Duncan dont play one game in the Finals the Spurs can win??? :usure:

:usure: :stopitslime::ufdup:@ Duncan being overrated

I never said he was a scrub or non-factor. Just said he was overrated. If you could guarantee me that T-Mac would've stayed healthy and maintained his level from 2003, then I would definitely pick him over anyone not named Kobe or Shaq (that I've seen play).

Duncan is still a top 10 player all-time. I just don't think he's as good as some people think he is. To me he benefited from playing in a great organization, with a great coach, great teammates, and great system.

Put KG in that same spot and he'd have at least 3 rings. Same with Barkley, Malone, etc. Duncan is NOT the best PF ever in my eyes, eventhough he has the best resume.
