Would have been an amazing lengthy small ball team if everyone were in their prime around the same time. Brian Grant was such a good looking cool player. Too bad his career was cut short with injuries.

****! I forgot UD. Put UD for PJ Brown and slide Brown to 3rd team.
Sorry Rasta Monsta

Chalmers v JWill is an interesting one. I went Rio but I could easily be swayed otherwise tbh.

I just feel that JWill was more impactful

I see what you did there, Mr Positionless

Agree that Jimmy deserves First Team, so yeah, works for me.

Don't make me put LeBron as the point guard

Speaking of the hugely exciting 2004 team, I have always wondered whether Pat and SVG wish they never broke that young team up.

I am sure Stan wishes they never acquired Shaq given Shaq's role in forcing SVG out, but Shaq was not that good anymore after that magical 05 debut season with the Heat.

Caron and Lamar were very popular with team-mates, unlike Shaq, who alienated everybody on his way out when he quit on the team, became toxic, and made a poor decision to force his way out and trash Pat and several people after he left.

Those 07-10 pre-Big 3 years would have been better with Odom and Butler and to play UD as a small-ball C. Shaq was useless after the 06 ECF; who can forget Dampier and Diop making him look like a bum in the Finals?

That being said, Shaq was brilliant in the 06 ECF against the 64-win Pistons before his 06 Finals no-show.

Outside of the 05 RS (Should have won the MVP over Nash) and the 06 ECF, he gave the heat NOTHING.

All that being said, I'm happy that he and the organization have repaired their relationship. That being said, I still strongly feel they were WRONG to retire his jersey for only giving 2 productive years and nothing but trouble after that.

I just wish The Big Egomaniac would admit he should have stayed instead of demanding a trade and becoming a journeyman ring-chaser and subsequent punching bag after leaving.

His fall from grace was sad to watch, both on and off the court. He was on top of the world from 00-06 and then fell off horribly until his career-ending injury.

I put Ray Allen there. Even though it's only 2 years. That Game 6 shot alone (clutches shot in NBA history, fight me) deserves his jersey retired here imo.

If we retired MJ's number then why not Ray?

Yea you gotta bump Hardaway to 2nd team to make room for Jimmy. Wade Jimmy and LeBron basically the playmakers.

If you don’t have LeBron first team you’re just mad
