I just wanted to know what other people think because i think they are.Whats your top five?

I think they're in the top 5 just because most elite PG's/SG's are paired with scrubs to average SG's/PG's

Wade is paired with Marcus Banks/Mario Chalmers
Kobe has Derek Fisher/Jordan
T-mac has Rafer Alston
Deron Williams has Ronnie Brewer
Chris Paul has Morris Peterson

Parker/Ginobili
Billups/Hamilton
Miller/Igoudala
Carter/harris
Nash/Bell

Would probably be my top 5 in no particular order, With Johnson/Bibby, Iverson/Smith and Kidd/Terry just missing the cut..

Yeah, too bad PG/SG tandems don't usually get you too far. They will be our cornerstones for production, especially in our new DDM system. But our success will be determined by how effective our cast-of-1000's frontcourt rotation can be.

I think it's a least top 5 in the East. I'm too lazy to look at all the teams, but top 5 East/Top 10 NBA

No, I can name some better one right from the head.

BD, Mobley
Billups, Hamilton
Kobe, whatever
Rondo, Pierce
Agent 0, Stevenson.
Nash, Bell

I don't agree with the B Diddy/Mobley, Rondo Pierce, Arenas/Stevenson at all.
The 1st 2 are maybe equal to ours and probably top 5 but not better, the 3rd doesn't even belong in this discussion.

The Nash/Bell I don't know about either, cause Nash is great, but he is maybe the 4-5 best PG in the league and Raja is just solid.

Billups/Hamiliton are absolutely top 5.

The Kobe one is basically a given becuase he is probably the 3rd or 4th best player period, so no matter who you put next to him, they are basically top 5 backcourt in the L.

I agree with the entire post (though you might be underrating Nash a touch). The Celtic one is particularly offbase when you consider Pierce starts at SF (Allen at SG).

they're definitely up there...I like johnson and bibby though...feel like we're missing others...for arguement sake they're easily top 10...

top 5 eh maybe, since cant think of anything but defenitely in the 10, but KoBe and whoever isnt, the question ahould be who the best balanced back court...

andre miller - andre iguodala and devin harris - vince carter are the 2 most complete, those 4 players are top12 in PG and SG positions
