Re: Bad Boys v. 2004 Champs v. Everybody else
It's hard to argue against a team that actually won it all. So that makes it Badboy's vs. Goin' to Work. That's really tough, especially considering the different eras. That Goin' to work squad was awefully deep, I was too young to remember much of the badboys so it's tough for me to have a legit opinion either way, I'm too emotionally invested with the Goin' to Work squad.
Detroit vs. Everybody

Everyone healthy, The Everybody else team is the best. But chemistry wise its hard to argue against the Bad Boys.

Re: Bad Boys v. Goin' to Work v. Everybody else
So much raw talent on the everybody else squad, and they have the best bench. Chemistry aside I think the everybody else team has the highest ceiling. Hill + Bing + Laner would be a crazy trio.

Re: Bad Boys v. Goin' to Work v. Everybody else
The "Etc" team is too deep. Even if the other teams starters go head to head, the bench mob for the Etc team would just be able to balance out the minutes. Nobody would play more than 25 mins.

Re: Bad Boys v. Goin' to Work v. Everybody else
Hate to say it, but goin to work is easily the weakest group. Worst bench by a mile, and their starters aren't really better that either group either.
Assuming they had time to gel as a team, I think everybody else would trample either team. Lot of punch there, and it all fits together too.

Re: Bad Boys v. Goin' to Work v. Everybody else
Everyone else has the most total talent, and 2004 had the best chemistry, but I'll take the middle ground Bad Boys. Defense, attitude, depth, and elite talent.
