Fair enough, but I don’t know you by name for you to bust my balls like that. So the context is taken out of disrespect.

Curry, Jordan, Jokic, Wilt, Pippen = $15

Oscar $2 MJ $5 ($7) Bird $4 ($11) KG $1 ($12) Dream $3 ($15)

That might be my third favorite starting 5 mentioned in this thread.

Yeah.... That one's pretty good. Guitarjosh must have put a little thought into it.

There's not really much thought needed on this one as far as the one that would be hardest to match up against in real life scenario where everything matters including how players would gel together and floor spacing and so forth .

That's Prime Shaq , last year at Orlando
type Shaq

PG - Jordan - 5 points
SG- Harden - 1 point
SF- Pippen- 2 points
PF Greek Freak -3 point
Center - Shaq - 4 points

Floor spacing with Greek Freak and Shaq
would be I possible to guard

Jordan and Pippens familiarity with one another and Champion caliber teamwork

Harden by default as the 1 point option , who happens to be a sharpshooter that hits his freebies

Forget Jordan's tenacity , Pippens smothering defense and wingspan
Hardens sharpshooting....

How the hell do you guard Greek Freak
and prime Shaq on the court at the same time with proper floor spacing ???

Thanks for your break down Fidel. That was well thought out with excellent points as you built your top 5.

Thanks.

Easiest way to think of this would be .

Who's the 2 most unstoppable big men on that list . Like actual beasts in their prime that are an absolute nightmare to guard 1 on 1 .

It's Prime Shaq and Giannis

So you must pair them up. There's no reason to get cute. Keep it simple.

Then you pick the best player of all time in Michael Jordan .

Then you look at the list and say , who would Jordan play the overall best with and it's Pippen .

Hardens the tough choice but looking for a spot sharp shooter for the 1 point option and Harden can fulfill that exact role imo better than the other $1 players.

In case anyone forgot how great prime Shaq was . I mean truly unstoppable he was . Watch the YouTube highlights .

You know what Greek Freak does .

You wouldn’t take Paul over Harden ? Those other four you have I think I like better than the four I originally had.

It's close there.

Like I said in Eye Candy thread

Ray Allen top 3 marksman of all time would be nice $1 to finish that off

Agreed end of thread in my eyes , but too bad it’s hypothetical because he’s not listed.

Ya the 1 point shooting guard only thing you want to focus on is pure catch and release sharpshooting. Ray Allen

Steve Kerr has the best overall 3 point percent for a career and he'd be a 1 point option .

Most others at the top wouod be more than $1 options . Why I think Ray Allen and Kerr are the perfect end .

Shit you could prolly get Kerr in the .50 cent section

Maybe even 25 cents on the dollar for old whitey ford with no defense lol.

Who is running point? That is why the chart is cool because it makes you think on how too actually put a starting 5 together. Wilt and Big O are steals for $2 until you start thinking on how too make out a starting 5.

Oscar $2 MJ $5 ($7) Bird $4 ($11) KG $1 ($12) Dream $3 ($15)

I think this one

Oscar, he averaged 9.5 assists per game over his career.

Oscar, he averaged 9.5 assists per game over his career.

His overall points rebounds and assists were simply amazing for back then with that lower volume of shots & pace they use to play. Much easier to compile stats now that’s for sure.

A little disengenuous when you consider KD is responsible for a lot of the issues

KD has never been near the GOAT conversation.

He is several classes below both MJ and LeBron


LeBron has also accomplished many things MJ never has

 

[stormtrooper8]

LeBron, MJ, Jokic, Pippen, Dirk
