Nash and Amare for both, by far, Deron Boozer number 2.

Paul and Chandler rolling to the basket should be high up there.

lebron and big Z are pretty good at the pick and pop.

Bosh and Calderon deserve a mention here....that's basically been about 70% of the Raptors offense this year.

Nash & STAT are one of the best at the Pick & Roll/Pop

Turkoglu & D12 are great w/the pick & roll :nod:

the most deadly pick and roll combo has to be nash and amare...they make it so easy

Nash and Amare, looks so easy like if it was NBA 2k8.

Howard and Turkoglu just bury teams with the pick and roll in 4th quarters. They have to be on any list like this.

Couple years ago (~5 years), it was Bibby/Webber...And it wasnt even close...

Nash/Amare is a fantastic tandem.

Deron/Boozer really does make you stop and go, "Karl? John? I thought you retired!!!" every so often, though. They're like...

Jedi, or something. They have a really great synergy with one another, it's quite impressive.

Turk and Dwight do alright but because Dwight is absolutely no threat to do anything but roll, it's not as effective as the other groups. Same deal with Paul and Chandler though as with Dwight/Turk, it's still a really dangerous combo.

Bosh/Calderon is definitely another good choice, as is Paul/West.

Kobe/Gasol and Billups/Sheed are both fantastic choices. Kobe and Gasol have that kind of chemistry that Boozer and Deron have, where you just know they are reading each other's minds somehow. Also, Gasol (like Boozer) doesn't have hands, he has leather magnets with fingers, so that doesn't hurt.

Circa the 2002-2003 season, it wasn't Webber/Bibby, because Stockton and Malone were still on Utah and it was clearly them.

BUT, they were deadly, especially with Peja. In 03-04, they were a FRIGHTENING little trio. That was the year Vlade averaged over 5 apg, too. Sacramento was godawfully terrifying on offense that year.

Yeah, that is what I meant...lol...Yeah, they were POTENT in offense...EXTREMELY fluid...*sighs* The glory days...

Rockets high pick and roll with T-Mac and Yao used to be deadly until Mark Cuban took it away.

Sacramento of that era is on my short list for my favorite teams to watch of all-time; Adelman's offense with Divac, Webber and Bibby (and in particular with Divac, Webber, Miller, Bibby and Peja) was a thing of beauty.

Athletically Nash and Amare's is the best, followed closely by Paul and Chandler.

Deron and Boozer have a good one, but theirs is better as far as the pick and pop goes considering both have great mid range games.

nash and any big man he's with is the best, probably 2nd behind stockton and malone

pair dirk w/any half decent shooter he's got a top pick and pop game too especially when jason terry is shooting well (even kidds dont decent in that game aside from the 3 games last week)

id imagine paul and deron both dominate the p'n'r too but they arent on tv often enough to see them
