NBA All-Lefty Team

[kureyşi-gospurs]

Today's August 13, National Left Handers' Day. Let's talk about lefties in the league, more specifically the best ones at their position and make an All-Lefty Team consisting of current players only. You've got the liberty to choose what part of their career you want the players to be in. I'll kick it off by giving y'all mine.

PG: Manu Ginobili (in his prime, probably '06-'07 or '07-08)
SG: Goran Dragic
SF: Chris Bosh (Heat)
PF: Josh Smith (Hawks)
C: DeAndre Jordan

BENCH

PG: Mike Conley
SG: (J)ames Har(d)en
SF: David Lee
PF: Zach Randolph
C: IDK

There's honestly so much to like about this starting lineup. It just makes so much sense. It's not very traditional but that's what makes it special. All starters except DJ are going to be a matchup nightmare for other teams. Just think about it, all these are guys are playing at a position they like best and are most mentally inclined toward.

Manu's an excellent point guard who has size and agility to make defenders go dizzy. Then there's the fact that he is a natural passer, a very solid defender, and a strong leader. Dragic may be a bit undersized for a SG but he has everything you could want in a shooting guard. As for Bosh; the Heat have pretty much turned him into a very good small forward though he has the size of a center. Our PF, J-Smoove may've decided to play to his weaknesses this past season by being a horrible chucker, but in truth (as evidenced by his Hawks days) he is an excellent and very versatile power forward. Our center for this team; DJ of course is just that, a solid starting center.

Anyway guys what do you think and what's your All-Lefty Team?

ok 3rd, after robinson...not the rest...

His greatest individual achievement is being selected twice as an all-NBA third team player

Is that better than being an NBA MVP and NBA Finals MVP?

Ginobili is the best lefty ever.

Really? He's better than Bill Russell? Tiny Archibald? Dave Cowens? Willis Reed?

He's not even the best lefty Spur. David Robinson was lefty.

Learn your history.
