NBA duo's you would like to see (active or retired players)

[Levity]

What are some 1-2 punches you think would be fun to watch? Since this is purely hypothetical, feel free to include retired players or active ones. Some players games are designed to fit perfectly with others. So with keeping that in mind, what are some of the duos youd love to see

John Stockton with pre injury Amare would have been a fun one to watch.

CP3 with Shawn Kemp would be another one

Steph Curry with MVP Shaq would be pretty ridiculous too. The spacing would be amazing, also Kevin Durant with Shaq.

ive also always wondered what a prime Kobe and Jason Kidd back court would look like.

Or Kobe with a prime Kevin Garnett would also be a fun one to watch.

and if we look at current players, Rondo with Drummond might also make a fruitful tandem.

Lebron and prime gilbert arenas
Lebron and kd
Kd and kg
kobe and Duncan
Pau and Marc gasol
Ai and d wade

[RagaZ]

Ehh, Marc and Pau play together in the Spain NT.

[BlackWhiteGreen]

I always wanted to see some of the individual greats get a 2nd guy for their whole careers, like KG and Pierce or McGrady for 15 years.

[Sakkreth]

Sabonis + LeBron
Sabonis + Magic

[Levity]

Sabonis + LeBron
Sabonis + Magic

great choice.

seeing a prime sabonis in the nba with anyone would be pretty great.

[ralph_i_el]

Hakeem and Ray Allen

[b1imtf]

Hakeem and Jordan
KG and Shaq
Jordan and Kwame

[Myth]

Prime Sabonis + Drexler

[alec613]

[talkingconch]

Lebron and Shaq
Kobe and Duncan
McGrady and Dwight
Jordan and Shaq
Stockton and Jordan

[FatComputerNerd]

Drexler/Pippen, out of curiosity.

Basically wondering what the results would have been like if Drexler was inserted on those Bulls teams instead of MJ.

[wally_world]

Isiah + MJ

Artest + Ben Wallace

[Jlamb47]

Duncan + Garnett
Westbrook + D Rose
Lebron + Shaq

[Le Shaqtus]

[NumberSix]

LeBron and Kareem.

[TheBigVeto]

LeBron and Kareem.

That one.

Also:
1. Kobe and Iverson (for hilarity)
2. Bird and Shaq
3. Dirk and Jordan
4. Ray Allen and David Robinson
5. Stockton and Barkley
6. Nash and KG
7. Durant and Olajuwon

[97 bulls]

Id like to see players with similar talent as the consensus top ten inbsimilar situations as that particular top ten player. For instance

John Stockton on the Showtime Lakers. Much better defender and shooter than Magic. And I see no reason why couldn't pilot that offense.

Id also like to see Jason Kidd on the Showtime Lakers in place of Magic. Hes the bizzaro version of Magic.

Mitch Richmond on the Bulls. Not because I feel hes a top ten talent, but because I feel Scottie Pippen would have led some teams to multiple championships and an MVP or even two.

[scm5]

Steph Curry and Durant

[Bucket_Nakedz]

rose and kg.

[Suckafree]

I feel like Lebron and Dirk would complement each other perfectly

[OldSkoolball#52]

Kobe Bryant and Boobie Gibson.

With Mike Brown as coach.

[I<3NBA]

Lebron + Magic (mismatches aplenty)

[Eric Cartman]

Jordan and Olajuwon.

Prime Iverson

1 ring

[secund2nun]

Lebron and Shaq- talk about dominance
Lebron and Nash
Hakeem and KG
Shaq and Dirk

[tpols]

Kidd - garnett.. No buckets allowed + best oops ever

[thefatmiral]

payton and hakeem
robinson and wade

[Reggie43]

Penny Hardaway and Shawn Kemp

[Harison]

Hakeem + Jordan probably would be the best All-time combo. Fantastic offense and will to win, incredible defense, and it would be a huge show as well.

[TonyMontana]

LeBron with Prime Shaq(8 seasons)
LeBron with Prime Gasol(6 seasons)
LeBron with Prime Dwight(1 season)

[#number6ix#]

Gary Payton and Kg
Kidd and Duncan
Kevin Johnson and Kevin love

[j3lademaster]

AI and Duncan- the duo that "could've been" if the universe didn't align to give Spurs the 1st pick. Which doesn't sound that bad, but was the difference between Keith Van Horn and Tim Duncan....

Barkley and Reggie Miller- The ultimate ball dominant PF with the ultimate offball shooting guard

Kevin Johnson and Kevin Durant- Even their names match! Preinjury KJ was just as big and almost as athletic as Westbrook, but was an elite passer.

CP3 and Karl Malone- CP3 finally gets a big who knows how to set an actual screen... and the GOAT pnr man at that.

Magic and Garnet- I would just looooove to see a small lineup with KG at the 5 and Magic at the 4 and just running and gunning all day.

Nash and Kemp- Mid 00's Suns that we all know and love with cooler highlights. Yes, please.

Lebron and Ray Allen- Yea ,yea Lebron does have Ray... but I mean prime Ray who could go to the hole if you get too far on his shot and dunk it in traffic. The Ray who can finish alley oops on backdoor cuts and drop 25/26 if he had the green light to shoot. Not to mention a Robin who actually matches Lebron's skillset.

Any combination of Oscar Robertson, Wilt, Russell etc just so I can have a chance to see these guys play.

[juju151111]

Mj and Hakeem would of won every atleast 8-9 chips.

[3243]

--The Twin Towers (if Sampson had been able to stay healthy for 15 years)
--Magic and Wilt
--Dr. J and the Iceman (with the Virginia Squires being able to afford to keep both of them)
--Kobe Bryant and Rick Barry (who's more disliked?)
--Shaq and Rick Barry (imagine their arguments about shooting free throws)
--Shaq and Yao
--The Bulls' Demolition Derby backcourt of Jerry Sloan and Norm Van Lier
--Darryl Dawkins (who shattered two backboards in one season) and Charles "Helicopter" Hentz (an ABA player who demolished both backboards in one game)
--another highly irritating backcourt: Gary Payton and Danny Ainge
--Skywalker and Reign Man
--Larry Bird and Bill Russell

[OldSkoolball#52]

LeBron with Prime Shaq(8 seasons)
LeBron with Prime Gasol(6 seasons)
LeBron with Prime Dwight(1 season)


I think that would actually be boring, cause itd be so may titles over and over again.

[miller-time]

Any combination of Stockton, Jordan, Shaq, and Hakeem

Also for a what if situation I'd like to see Pippen and Malone on the Jazz with Stockton and Jordan on the Bulls.

[tmacattack33]

Iverson and Shaq woulda had some conflicts but it woulda been great seeing one of the smallest guys in the league with the biggest and strongest.

Lebron and KG woulda been great. Both could guard almost 5 positions...their defense coulda been great to watch.

[joeyjoejoe]

Cp3 and olajuwon

Oscar and Dirk

[tgan3]

I would like to see Shaq and Wilt together, with wilt playing PF. Doesn't make sense but I think they will just bully their way in.

[3243]

Len Bias and Maurice Stokes. Just to see what could have been.
