i keep hearing about detroit being the best starting five in the nba and thats not true. they are the best starting 5 in the east but overall talent wise they are not. the suns and jazz are

steve nash>>>>>>> chauncey billups
raja bell< rip hamilton
grant hill> tayshaun prince
shawn marion= rasheed wallace
amare>>>>>>>>>>>> antonio

deron williams>>> chauncey billups
ronnie brewer<< rip
andrei kirelinko> prince
carlos boozer> rasheed wallace
memo okur>> antonio

Nash=Billups
Bell<<Hamilton
Hill<Prince
Marion<Rasheed
Amare>>McDysse

Sun's Defense<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Detroit's Defense

Deron<Billups
Brewer<<<Hamilton
Ak47=Prince
Boozer>Rasheed
Okur<McDysse

Jazz's Defense<<<<<<<<<<<<Detroit's Defense

Jazz chemistry<<<<<<Detroit's chemistry


Make no mistake. Detroit has the best starting 5.

you are undervaluing chuancy billups WAAAAAAY too much.

pull the numbers

are you serious, the difference between nash and billups is minimal. Hamilton is much better than bell, Tayshan is a lot better than hill, Marion and Sheed are about equals. Wow, talk about bias.

prince is not a better player then grant hill, hes a better defender, thats it. hill is a better shooter, post up player, ball handler, passer, scorer and rebounder. the only thing hamilton has on bell is he a better mid range shooter, bell is an elite defender so if you wanna use the bias prince is better then hill because hes a better defender then u mite as well say bell is better then rip cause he is the superior defender

lol @ Bell being an elite defender...can anyone say HOMER ?

Haha that made me laugh

im a mavs fan, sorry. and yes raja bell is the best two guard defender in the nba

There starting line-up is championship proven.

There definitely one of the best, if not the best.

When comparing starting lineups you have to factor in a 5 man unit vs another 5 man unit.

It's not all about player vs player.

The teams have the #1 most efficient offense, #2 most efficient defense, set records for fewest TO's.

The chemistry is there from playing together for so long.

They have more experience playing together than anyone else's starting 5 in the NBA.

bwahahaha.

If the Jazz had one of the best starting 5 in the league, they sure as hell wouldnt be a .500 team.

The only reason we even know Raja Bell is because he had that feud with Kobe Bryant. Otherwise, we'd be asking who Raja Bell is.

Derek Fisher <<< Chauncey Billups
Kobe Bryant >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Rip Hamilton
Luke Walton < Tayshaun Princess
Lamar Odom = Rasheed
Bynum >>>>>>>>>>>> Antonio

Phil Jackson >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Everyone

While the Jazz have a good lineup (and match up well with the Pistons in a direct matchup) if they're such a great starting 5 why's their record so mediocre? The starting unit isn't THAT good.

Edit... Margins...

you mean bynum not wallace...


I think suns are the closest to detroit with new orleans starting 5 this season looks to be right on their tail... west, paul, chandler, peja is pretty damn good 4... and mo pete isn't terrible.

loL wow I have no idea why I typed Wallace but yeah I meant Bynum O_O; aka THE BYNASTY.
