Assemble an All-NBA Team for your Franchise

[HD MM]

I'll go first. Try and limit it to players who've played at least 3 years with your team.

All- Cavs Team (Help me out Skyhi if you have any additions/subtractions).....

Starters, Bench

PG- Mark Price, Terrell Brandon
SG- Austin Carr, Ron Harper
SF- Lebron James, Campy Russell
PF- Larry Nance, John Hot-Rod Williams
C- Brad Daugherty, Zydrunas Ilgauskas

 

[Ramy]

Starters, Bench

PG - Magic Johnson, Byron Scott
SG - Jerry West, Kobe Bryant
SF - James Worthy, A.C. Green
PF - Elgin Baylor, Bob McAdoo
C - Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Wilt Chamberlain

Announcer - Chick Hearn!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[HD MM]

Ramy, you little showoff! Wilt, Kobe and McAdoo on the bench?!

BTW, I figured the Lakers and Celtics fans would have a field day with this one...

 

[Paul Wozniak]

Ramy, I think you have your PG and SG mixed up. Magic was a PG and West was certainly a SG.

Yes, fixed.

What can I say? They have a bunch of great players. The Lakers second team would beat most teams first team.

Celtics-

PG- Bob Cousy
SG- John Havlicek
C- Bill Russell
SF- Larry Bird
PF- Kevin McHale

Bench
PG- Jo Jo White
PG- Sam Jones
SG- Bill Sharman
PG/SG- Dennis Johnson
C- Robert Parish
C/PF- Dave Cowens
SF- Paul Pierce

Coach- Arnold "Red" Auerbach

Everyone on this list with the exception of Dennis Johnson (who still could get in) and Paul Pierce (active) are in the Basketball Hall Of Fame!

 

[Paul Wozniak]

Detroit Pistons

PG - Isaiah Thomas / Chauncey Billups - Isaiah was one of the best "little men" in the league.
SG - Dave Bing / Joe Dumars - Bing carried the franchise, shot the lights out. Hard choice there, but Bing wins on shooting ability.
SF - Grant Hill / Tayshaun Prince - Hill's time here was too short.
PF - Rasheed Wallace / Dennis Rodman - Wallace is one of the best when he wants to be. Rodman may have been the best defender/ rebounder of his era.
C - Bob Lanier / Bill Laimbeer - Lanier was severely underrated. Mopped the floor with the league's elite.
6th Man - Vinnie "Microwave" Johnson Wind him up, put him in, watch him score 20 off the bench.
Coach - Chuck Daly "Daddy Rich" known as well for his sartorial splendor, as the 2 titles he brought us.

We've had a short franchise history compared to the Celtics and Lakers.

Vinnie "Microwave" Johnson

The Microwave and Andrew Toney (aka The Boston Strangler) of the Sixers, used to keep me up in a cold sweat when they played the Celtics!

 

[Paul Wozniak]

Toney was scary. I loved that guy.

 

[BillD1984]

Detroit Pistons

PG - Isaiah Thomas / Chauncey Billups - Isaiah was one of the best "little men" in the league.
SG - Dave Bing / Rip Hamilton - Bing carried the franchise, shot the lights out.
SF - Grant Hill / Tayshaun Prince - Hill's time here was too short.
PF - Rasheed Wallace / Dennis Rodman - Wallace is one of the best when he wants to be. Rodman may have been the best defender/ rebounder of his era.

Paul,

obviously you would know this better than me, but no Joe Dumars?

I saw Bing, Dumars and Hamilton play against the Celtics. Personally I thought Dumars was the best of the three.

But again, YOU'RE the Pistons fan so I defer to you on this. :up

 

[BillD1984]

HD,

Bingo Smith was another great all-time Cavs player.

Geez, I'm forgetting everything lately. A correction will be made.

Wow....not much here....LMAO!

Hmm...let see for the Heat:

PG ----> Tim Hardaway
SH-----> Dwayne Wade
C------> Alonzo Mouring
PF ----> Udonis Haslem
SF ----> Glenn Rice

Bench: Shaquille O'Neal, Rony Seikly, Anthony Mason, Dan Majerle, Eddie Jones and Sherman Douglas.

Not a bad team at all when you consider they've only been around for about 20 years. :up

BTW, I loved Sherman Douglas when he played for the Celtics. Very underrated point guard!

 

[Skyhi]

I like the list, HD except I'd probably have Bingo Smith in there instead of Ron Harper. Harper only played 3-4 seasons for us, while Smith was a fixture for nearly a decade.

Cavs Coach: Lenny Wilkens

Honorable mentions: Craig Ehlo, Danny Ferry, and Jim Chones

I guess you can say that. I TOO loved Sherman Douglas, but when he was with Syracuse Orangemen

I'd flip-flop Shaq and Mourning on that list. Mourning seemed to be the heart and soul of that team for so many years while Shaq was only there for a cup of coffee (and, I know, a championship).

You know what...seeing that I have really started to dislike Shaq...that is a damn good idea!:up
