Can this team win it all? Or how far can it go? 

Post#1 » by miula » Sat Jan 12, 2008 2:47 am

If we put together 90s all-stars who haven't won any ring into one team(in their current status), how far can it go? Can it win the champ?

PG - Jason Kidd
SG - Eddie Jones
SF - Grant Hill
PF - Chris Webber
C - Erick Dampier

Bench - Juwan Howard / Jim Jackson / Penny Hardaway / Theo Ratliff / Brevin Kinght

I will predict maybe its a 55~60 win team

6-8th seed in the east, not even playoffs in the west.
Thank you for all the memories BRoy. You were a class act and brought hope to an entire region for 5 years. You will be missed.

Good team but gutless other than Kidd . . . Dampier was a 90s All-Star?

jones and webber are basically done.

kidd can't score worth a crap.

hill can't carry a team anymore.

dampier is too inconsistent

jackson has been done for years

penny too

ratliff as well

that team is so terrible defensively i think they'd make the miami heat right now look like the 1990s bulls.

everyone in their primes and that team is easily a dynasty, but too many done, injury prone terrible defenders to matter now.

Meaning how they are now? Frankly they'd be in the Derrick Rose sweepstakes if that was the case.

Prime? Hardaway would start, as would Ratliff and that team, THEN would likely be the favorite to win it all.

The problem is the chemistry, and it doesn't look like the would be one when there isn't more of a volume scorer in the lineup. If we could change Hill with Igoudala then I think it would be better.

That is a horrible team. Lottery, at least.

I am not sure how well they can work together though. Hill, Kidd, Webber all need the ball to be effective.

Was AI not a 90's allstar? pretty sure he was

No, that team can't win the title. In fact, they would have problems with the Celtics, Pistons, and Spurs.
