          Always liked Stockton and Malone at the Jazz. But for Jordan and THAT Bulls team, they would have had a few rings!

            @nzzp Nobody "liked" Malone did they??? Respect sure, but he was the most boring player that ever lived! That "hand on my ear" dunk, the same 12ft baseline jumper, shoot me now!!!

              effective baby,

              FFS if you live in Utah, that counts as flamboyant 🙂 Plus, I was new to the NBA at the time, so a mate and I fell into the Jazz

                  I'll cheat a little.

                  C Hakeem Olajuwon
                  PF David Robinson
                  SF James Worthy
                  SG Reggie Miller
                  PG Magic

                  Otherwise my PF would be Barkley

                    Wilt Chamberlain. Great centre who got me into playing after a I saw a couple of films about him

                    Also responsible for the immortal reply of of "I clean giraffe ears" when a thick reporter, not noticing he was wearing a Lakers shirt, asked him what he did for a living,

                      nice shark!

                      C David Robinson
                      PF Tim Duncan
                      SF Michael Jordan
                      SG Reggie Miller
                      PG Allen Iverson

                      I've cheated a little to move MJ to the SF spot.

                      I don't know if my team would succeed in the modern NBA, but it's players i like rather than a team that is built to win

                      There would be a lot of chat

                            @voodoo I gotta include a lefty in there.

                            Good to see plenty of players from the 1980s in there.

                            Here's another team:

                            C Dirk Nowitzki

                                      Nah. You could choose some old-timers like Cousy, Havlicek or Barry. Thunder Dan? His team mate Tom Chambers was better.

                                      Chris Mullin would be in there, maybe Mark Price or Steve Nash at PG.
