The $15 All- NBA Team Game

On second thought I might go with Duncan or KG instead of Dirk, and maybe spend less on a pg, taking Oscar or possibly Stockton.

Oscar, Jordan, Durant, Duncan and Hakeem might be tough.

I do like having two guys who can hit the 3 though.

It's funny that none of those shooting guards can shoot the three very well.

Magic, Jordan, Pippen, Duncan, Hakeem.

We going old school here. Screw spacing. We'd post you up for days, that's if... you even get the ball and our defence lets you even attempt a shot.

I think the money figures here are off. I mean for PF or C, you can't really go wrong. Should differentiate talent a bit more based on money.

Walt Frazier 1
Michael Jordan 5
Scottie Pippin 1
Charles Barkley 4
Bill Russell – 4

25 total rings

Frazier is the best value
Jordan is a no brainier
Pippin is the best value
Barkley over Duncan because he had more passion and fire
Too many good options at Center

Kyler Murray · Post #27 » by **Kyler Murray** » Sat May 31, 2014 7:51 pm

Thomas
Jordan
Durant
Barkley
Hakeem

And the other one would be

Magic
Jordan
Durant
Dirk
Hakeem

Uhmm... anyone who put Jordan and Isiah on the same team obviously was not thinking about team chemistry. Dudes hated each other.

Stockton - $2 (Facilitator)
Jordan - $5 (GOAT)
Pippen - $1 (Jordan's BFF and Elite Defender)
Sir Charles - $4 (Boards)
Shaq - $2 (Dominant Big)

$1 to Spare for a 6th.

Yeah, and Durant would be like 3 years old, think you're missing the point

I'm assuming that all players would be in their prime. If its a known fact that Zeke and MJ hated each other, I think that should still be a factor if they are to play on the same team.

Stockton, West, Pippen, Barkley, Olajuwon
Balanced ofense and defense and most important - team play.

That second one is the same as my picks. That team would just be impossible to stop offensively. Then they would also have two great defenders at key positions.

On second thought I wasn't sure if Magic is necessary if you have Jordan (both primary ball handlers), but I guess most of the point guards are. Stockton and KG or Duncan as replacements would be tempting though too.

John Stockton - $2
Michael Jordan - $5
LeBron James - $5
Kevin Garnett - $1
Hakeem Olajuwon - $1

Olajuwon is arguably the best center on that list, so an absolute steal at $1. Can't really pass up Jordan or LeBron. Take Stockton as a perfect facilitator for those two and a good three point shooter as well. That leaves just enough for Dirk at PF.

Assuming a decent bench, that's a 75 win team.

JTrain · Post #36 » by **JTrain** » Thu Jun 5, 2014 4:46 pm

From everyone's selections so far it's clear Kareem is the most overpriced.

I got the same. And going on his 20th season KG has been playing in the league so long that people forget how good he was a decade ago on the T-Wolves.

Robertson - 4

West - 3

LeBron - 5

KG - 1

Hakeem - 1

= $14, so I'll have Pippen as my 6th man for $1.
