Who had the worst supporting cast to ever win a championship?

[SouBeachTalents]

The nominees with the strongest cases imo

Rick Barry- 1975 Warriors

Hakeem- 1994 Rockets
http://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/HOU/1994.html

Duncan- 2003 Spurs
http://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/SAS/2003.html

Dirk- 2011 Mavs
http://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/DAL/2011.html

Who you guys got? Anyone else you think deserves to be mentioned along with these 4?

Rick Barry and it's not even close.

Kobe Bryant-All five of his rings.

2013 heat has to be in that list. Big names, but production wise they sucked.

[Jlamb47]

2003 Spurs
Tony Parker second year in the NBA at 20 years old with no D
David Robinson last year in the NBA
Manu Ginobli was a rookie

Tim Duncan averaged 10 more points then the second leading scorer for the Spurs in the Finals 24 to 14(Tony Parker)

Duncan stats in the Finals

24.2 PPG 17 RPG 5.3 APG 1.0 SPG 5.3BPG

Also elite on both ends of the floor
He led the Spurs in every categorie except for steals

I thought those 4 were established?

Anyway, Barry was easily the least impressive individually.

Yes, came here to post this. Bad matchups for bosh, and wade was garbage.

[Lexington Steel]

Hakeem.

Hard to say. I don't know enough about the 75 run (before my time)...

Duncan had a worse supporting cast than Hakeem and Dirk had, but the competition was pretty weak that year.

So it's hard to answer these questions.

Competition also matters much and should also be mention when this discussion comes up.

With that said, I'll probably say Rick Barry. Not to take anything away from his teammates though, they knew what to do and also played great D.

I agree with this. There's no doubt Tim did more for his Team than anyone on the list. But that wasn't how OP phrased the question.

Wasn't Barry pretty good defensively thay season too ?

I've also read he got robbed of MVP that year.
