Do you see them winning any titles during this 7 year span?

Yeah. I think they’d won back to back titles in 94 & 95. They could challenge any of those Bulls championships teams too although I wouldn’t take them as favorites in any year. Likely they take 1 off the Bulls though.
They’d be a dominant team. Reggie has an argument for being the best offensive player of the era and Robinson has one fo best defensive player.

This Spurs team still isn't constructed that well but I can see them beating Rockets and Magic in 1995. Reggie was unstoppable in his prime and nothing would change that.

Probly trying to use some metric to support that argument when anyone who watched the 90's knows Miller has no argument......

Not overall but offensively it’s an argument. Reggie was his era’s Steph Curry. In the 95 playoffs he gave you 25 PPG on +9 rTS%.

Barkley was a monster and I respect the notion of him being above Reggie. But Reggie was also a monster.

WTF?
No it's not, Jordan can score in a much bigger variety of ways and is a much better playmaker. If you think Reggie is some goat level offensive player, there's no way he's not at least in your top 15 all time.

Guys,
You can’t look at stats and just make conclusions.
That said, I agree with Spaceman on the possibility of winning in 94 or 95. Reggie is also underappreciated due to his stats, ironically. But those of us who watched know that he was a beast. He was not Shaq though, not Robinson, not Barkley, not Malone, and certainly not Jordan.
