Hmmm. This is interesting because of the 7 active players rule. So here we go!

Cc: Kareem Abdul-Jabbar | Dwight Howard*
PF: Dirk Nowitzki* | Rasheed Wallace*
SF: Larry Bird | LeBron James* | Josh Howard*
SG: Kobe Bryant* | Sidney Moncrief
PG: Oscar Robertson | Walt Frazier

Reasons for picks:

Legends:

- Kareem Abdul-Jabbar: IMO the best Center of all time, I see no reason as to why we're not allowed to take Wilt and Jordan and yet are allowed to take him. Top 3 player all time, no weaknesses, what's not to like?

- Larry Bird: One tough ass mofo. There is no one in history I would feel more comfortable giving the ball to in a clutch situation.

- Sidney Moncrief: Top 3 Perimeter defender all time. 'Nuff said.

- Oscar Robertson: Really underrated imo. The only PG that deserves to be mentioned in the same echelon as Magic Johnson, averaged a triple double on a season. Picked him over Magic because he's more of a half court player and I wouldn't bet my life on a fast paced team.

- Walt Frazier: Coolest guy to ever play the game. On top of that, another top 3 defensive player of all time and excellent offensive game to boot.

Current players:

- Dwight Howard: Rebounding and defensive beast, always good to have one of those.

- Dirk Nowitzki: With Kareem on the inside, is there any better front court partner than the Diggler? He'll draw a big man away from the basket and should really open the game up for others.

- Rasheed Wallace: More spacing, also provides top notch post D. Unstoppable when he wants to be, all I have to hope is that he wants to be for this particular game.

- LeBron James: He's the chosen one, really amazing player. Can you imagine LeBron facing only single team cover because of the other offensive weapons? *shudder*

- Josh Howard: Because I couldn't leave my main dawg off my team :)

- Kobe Bryant: Because he's Kobe and he always gets up for big games and DOMINATES.

you guys are crazy... this mans threatening to kill you
i'd take

PG: AI (highschool problem's i'm sure he's still somewhat gangster)
SG: Steven Jackson (detroit brawl)
SF: Melo (gangster DVD, MSG brawl, DUI, etc etc)
PF: KG (lynching accusations in Highschool)
C: Ben Wallace (detroit brawl)

on my bench: Ron Artest (detroit brawl), Al Horford (took out TJ ford)
Bruce Bowen (He plays dirty as ****), Dennis Rodman (was part of the NWO and wrestled with karl malone), Paul Pierce (he's been stabbed and he's still owning people in the NBA)....

I think i'll settle with that.

This team will kick the **** out of the guy threatening to Kill you...

You and I think a lot alike with that team. I think we only differed on three backcourt reserves.
