Are the Lakers the greatest team ever assembled if every player was in their prime?

You're comparing them to the greatest players of all-time. Sorry, barely top 20. Every team mentioned in this thread is on another level.

no we're not.. it has nothing to do with how great a player is all time

its "how good a team can be if everyones in their prime"


a team full of guys who had great years at their absolute best is a good team no matter what the players name is...

if you have 10 guys who at their best were allstar level players... its a god damn amazing team

I dunno, that's a pretty sick front court right there. An in his prime Sabas, Sheed, and Pippen with Steve Smith and I guess Stoudamire. Frankly I would just run Sabas, Sheed, Schrempf, Smith, and Pippen as my PG. (as Mike Dunleavy did as Stoudamire was a shitty pg) Though the person had it wrong. Pippen in his prime would be a 94/95 Pippen not 92 Pippen. You would have an excellent bench to go with that starting line up too. They would definitely be a force defensively that's for sure.

Tell me a team that meshes better than Parker/Ginobili/Bowen/Duncan/D-rob with Pop coaching

I think I know what the thread is about, I created it. Read the title again. It's the greatest team of all-time if every player is in their prime. You clearly have a reading comprehension problem

.

a team full of guys who had great years at their absolute best is a good team no matter what the players name is...

I don't disagree, but they are nowhere near the level of some of the teams discussed.

Try again
