I'm not sure if this was ever a thread but I'd like to know other people's opinions on this.

Rules: You have to had seen the guy play. I never saw Dave Bing or Bob Lanier play so they won't be on my lists.

Here's mine:

Point Guard
1. Isiah Thomas
2. Chauncey Billups
3. Brandon Jennings
4. Reggie Jackson
5. Chucky Atkins

Shooting Guard
1. Joe Dumars
2. Rip Hamilton
3. Allan Houston
4. Jerry Stackhouse
5. John Long

Small Forward
1. Grant Hill
2. Dennis Rodman
3. Adrian Dantley
4. Kelly Tripuka
5. Tayshaun Prince

Power Forward
1. Rasheed Wallace
2. Greg Monroe
3. James Edwards
4. Bison Dele
5. Cliff Robinson/Antonio McDeyess

Center
1. Ben Wallace
2. Bill Laimbeer
3. Andre Drummond
4. Greg Monroe
5. Theo Ratliff

Aguirre was a role player when he played for the Pistons.
Edwards started at the 4 when he played for the Pistons.
Rodman was a 3 when he played for the Pistons.
Mahorn and Salley were role players

Did you leave Stuckey off due to spite? He was better than Chucky Atkins IMO. Greg Monroe makes it at two spots?

Is it strictly as a Piston? T-Mac and Chris Webber were pretty good, but not really as Pistons.

Mark Aguirre

he played 28 minutes and scored 15 points per game in two championship seasons

and rodman was backup PF, he played 28 minutes per game in two championship seasons

Iverson too

Bob Lanier and Dave Bing should both be listed.

Someone didn't read the rules eh?

I saw em both play but yea, I didn't read that part just saw the inadequate list.

I thought Stuckey was a terrible point guard. He might have been a better player. But point guard? Nah.

Monroe made it in 2 places because he's started a full season at 2 different positions.

And Mac and Webber weren't that good with the Pistons. They were decent at best.

Aguirre was rarely in crunch time. In his second season with us, he came off the bench. Rodman took his spot. The best 5 we had that year was Isiah, Joe, Rodman, Edwards, and Laimbeer. They all made my list.

Vinnie Johnson?

I changed the title. I'm interested in seeing who other people would choose.

Which is wild because you'd think people on a Piston board would wanna talk about their all time players. I guess talking about guys who'll never wear Piston uniforms is more interesting.

Oh well.

Aren't internet message boards made for arguing which guy who'll never play for your team fits best?

I know, huh? I'm so lazy and have no respect for the past that I included Tripucka and John Long.

Eh, or maybe some of us arent middle aged+ and want to rate players that we are actually knowledgeable about
