What's the highest level of basketball you've played ? Hell....any sport?

Probably higher than you. Could you beat me right now in basketball or any sport??

 

[#Vol4Life1991]

Yea. LBJ didn’t even get the Cavs to the playoffs his first two seasons. See how easy this is.

Mj was taking fake classes at unc while bron was paying his mama’s bills, being the man of the house. It’s easy for me, wbu?

 

[volKano]

PG- Magic Johnson
SG- Michael Jordan
SF- Larry Bird
PF- Tim Duncan
C- Shaquille O'Neal

Would be my starting 5.

I loved watching Shaq from his LSU days thru his Laker years but Hakeem owned him.

I loved watching Shaq from his LSU days thru his Laker years but Hakeem owned him.

After I posted it, I saw some posts about Hakeem and I thought about changing my pick for center but the "Orlando Shaq" was the most dominant center I had ever seen. I also thought about putting Giannis over Duncan

 

[vol9799]

PG- Magic Johnson
SG- Michael Jordan
SF- Larry Bird
PF- Tim Duncan
C- Shaquille O'Neal

Would be my starting 5.

My 13 man roster:
Magic, Bird, Jordan, Lebron, KAJ, Maravich, Chamberlin, Duncan, Hakeem, Russell, Curry, Thomas, Baylor

My 13 man roster:
Magic, Bird, Jordan, Lebron, KAJ, Maravich, Chamberlin, Duncan, Hakeem, Russell, Curry, Thomas, Baylor

pass on Lebron.

Insert Shaq. Pretty sure that'd be unstoppable.

 

[TN-POSSUM]

My 13 man roster:
Magic, Bird, Jordan, Lebron, KAJ, Maravich, Chamberlin, Duncan, Hakeem, Russell, Curry, Thomas, Baylor

I didn't see Maravich, Wilt, Bill Russell, or Elgin play, so I listed from the 80s and up.

My 2nd team would be:

PG- Stephen Curry
SG- Kobe Bryant
SF- Kevin Durant
PF- Giannis Antetokounmpo
C- Hakeem Olajuwon

Not gonna lie, my second team has Dominique Wilkins.

I know he's not as illustrious as some others. But was one of my all timr faves.

Maybe, but what is it good for?

Absolutely nothing

Good call, I ain't got no problem putting Dominique over Kobe... I hate the Lakers anyways

 

[Wokepack]

#1 Points
#4 Assists
#9 3 Pointers Made
#32 Rebounds
#1 Clutch Time Points
#9 Steals
#3 Total minutes played

All-time numbers in NBA history. Horrible take. If you’re building a team, he is on it. No question

I agree. You can be a hater to an extent before it's just stupidity. Bron haters are clearly illogical.

Kobe was a great player, even better person.

That said, Can kick rocks on my list.

Dont care for him. Do see him as one of the best Bball players of all time. Def played in a boring as hell time.

My final 3 players for a 13 man roster:

Kevin Garnett
Dominique Wilkins


GO VOLS

Before the NBA evolved into an open court 3 pt game, how would you rank your top 5 all-time big true 5's? Here is mine:
1. Hakeem
2. Chamberlin
3. Jabbar
4. Bill Russell
5. Willis Reed

I listed Hakeem 1 because of his ability to dominate on both ends.

Yea Shaq has to be in there somewhere.

Mine is

1. Lou Alcindor
2. Shaq
3. Dream
4. Wilt
5. Mr. Russell

I could flip Dream and Shaq.

Tennessee is 3rd in SEC in Running Play Percentage in the last two seasons. Slightly behind 2nd place Ole Miss. So much for the woefully inaccurate “air raid” label and Tennessee not being Physical. Very balanced attack

 

[berryvol]

In an era that overly favors offense. Superstars of old would straight up dominate now. Bird and Pistol Pete would be unstoppable. Guys like Jordan and Drexler would make some of these young guys look silly.

Pistol Pete couldn’t get the ball across half court in today’s NBA. The NBA of the 70s and 80s is like high school ball compared to the athleticism that all positions have now.

 

[#Vol4Life1991]

If I was picking a team from the history of basketball, LeBron would not be on it.

Lol

 

[rocktopper16]

Anyone tweeted at Mike Farrell about Trey smith starting in the Super Bowl?

 

[csprig9]

My nba team in no order

MJ,
Olajuwon,
Iverson,
Bryant,
Bird,
Shaq,
Barkley,
Magic,
Kareem,
wilt,
bill Russell,
Oscar Robertson
Karl Malone…..

My Old nba and more modern nba team would be tough to beat
Very few guys nowadays would make it in the nba of the 80s and 90s when you would get your ass whipped going for a layup. Todays nba is easier imo, more talent overall in the league but not a ton of effort or defense. Yea Lebron is good, but these guys would’ve done the same thing he’s doing if they played in todays game….. And would’ve done it better
