Who you got? Battle of the best era - Best starting 5

[k0kakw0rld]

Been a while since I posted but the 90's are taking this with 00s close second the 60s complete the podium.

Sorry Bird and Magic, not good enough.

[dubeta]

Shouldn't LeBron be in both the 2000's and 2010's?

[Dragonyeuw]

The 2010's would get creamed inside looking at that picture.

[feyki]

60's .

[#number6ix#]

Replace ai with Nash

[scandisk_]

bran should be on the 10's

00's is loaded as phuck (even w/o bron)

[Duffy Pratt]

There aren't enough balls in creation to satisfy the 00s. That team would end up killing each other before beating their opponents. 90s and 80s is close. I tend to think that Magic and Bird would find a way to win. Not sure that I would want Thomas on that team though, probably prefer a defensive specialist who could at least slow Jordan down a little (especially since the team is absorbing Magic's defense). Give me Dumars or Cooper instead.

i like the 90s

that lineup meshes beautifully. maybe barkley has a tough time defending certain 3's but the team defense is so good that it wouldn't matter. malone and hakeem would be a brilliant combination.

90s lineup features three guys who worked largely off the low block in the post. Hakeem demanded the ball go through him in an inside out style. So there isn't much room for the Stockton/Malone pick and roll. And we already got to see how well Hakeem and Barkley would mesh... Their defense, however would be outstanding. The same team would be better with Pippen instead of Barkley - more versatile on D, and one less person demanding a share of the ball all the time.

90's GOATs with 2010 GOATs close second

[CakeorDeath]

Replace Barkley with Pippen and the 90s team slaughters everyone, in my opinion.

Replace AI with Nash or Kidd and 00s play them pretty close, but 90s still wins convincingly.

[SugarHill]

Nash replacing AI makes 00 unbeatable

[gcvbcat]

close between 60s & 80s. 90s has jordan & a bunch of losers.

70s are weak.

[Mass Debator]

I always thought the eras went like this...

75-85s = Too young to really rank these
85-95s = Magic, Jordan, Bird, Barkley, Hakeem
95-05s = Nash, Iverson, ???, Malone, Shaq
05-15s = Wade, Kobe, Lebron, Dirk, Duncan
15-25s = Curry, Harden, Durant, AD, Cousins

??? = I didn't know who to put here. I was thinking Pippen, KG, or even McGrady.

but every miss would lead to an offensive rebound

later day barkley turned into what zach randolph is now. but early 90s chuck is fast and crafty knowing exactly where to be around the paint.

i have no doubt that front line could figure out how to get out of each other's way. they are all good off ball / position players.

you're right pippen would be better... i just really like that front line
