Most Athletic Lineup Ever?

[moe94]

Who do you got? Would they be the favorites to win it all if their bench was absolutely horrible?

Russell Westbrook (or Rose as they're interchangeable)
Vince Carter (rather make it more interesting without Jordan)
LeBron James
Shawn Kemp
David Robinson (could go Shaq, but Robinson was the GOAT combination of everything)

I think your line up is good but I would take MJ and Wilt for centre

[red1]

modern era using some personal favs

westbrook
wade
lebron
blake griffin
dwight

would be sick to watch

[fpliii]

idk man

[KobesFinger]

Iverson
Jordan
LeBron
Barkley
Robinson

If the Big O played in this era I think he would be as athletic as any PG.

Jordan

LeBron, Dr. J???

Hakeem, KG

Wilt, young Shaq, Robinson

[ImKobe]

Rose
MJ
Lebron
Barkley
Wilt

[SHAQisGOAT]

PG: Rose, Kevin Johnson or Westbrook, Big O too
SG: Jordan
SF Lebron, even Julius or Nique
PF: Kemp or Barkley
C: Shaq or Wilt, D-Rob a nice choice too

[HoopSuperstar]

Paton

You'd like watching 5 defenders in the paint?

[kshutts1]

Nate Robinson
AI
Lebron
Stro? Griffin?
Wilt

Umm... really not sure how my team would do. Certainly could score at will, but could Lebron and Wilt play 2 on 5 defense effectively? Who is gonna hit the three on O to give some spacing (in the event that spacing is needed)?

...But I thought you were going a different way with this. I thought you'd ask for the most athletic actual lineup, not a created lineup.

So using "regular" starters... aka if the entire team is healthy and able to play...

My memory on lineups won't go far enough back to get a great answer to this, but I would look to teams that were pretty high paced.

Anyone have a good choice?

Nets -- Kidd, RJ, KMart.. plus whoever else started. Three solid athletes.
Bulls -- MJ, Pippen, Rodman
Lakers -- Kobe, George, Shaq

How about the late 70s 76ers? Dr J, Dawkins, World Free, McGinnis, Caldwell Jones, Kobe's dad, then gone McGinnis but in Bobby Jones. :eek:

Dunno the athleticism of any of those players outside of Doc and Dawkins. But I will take your word for it.

Erving and Dawkins were simply athletic freaks; Bobby Jones was just a great (and underrated) athlete; Caldwell Jones in similar fashion to Bobby was lean, on the skinny-side, still 6'11'', pretty mobile and good leaper (hence the shot-blocking); Joe Bryant wasn't close to his son, Kobe, in terms of skill but close enough in terms of athleticism; Free was a really good all-around athletic guard; McGinnis was really strong and big, mobile enough too; Cheeks also a good athlete...

Bobby Jones - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0NxCr-3L8J4

Joe Bryant - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5mhWVMPvtOE

World B. Free (not a lot of footage in his early days with the 76ers but he got the nickname World because of his 40+ inches dunks, he was really fast, quick and agile) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxpu6cFF2B0

Mo Cheeks (pretty fast/quick/agile) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SV6uelW3_wY

Caldwell Jones was also really athletic, 6'11, pretty good leaper, long, quick. McGinnis was a solid athlete, really bulk and strong. Not a lot of (good) highlights with them but easy to watch some games up on youtube and see they were athletic, especially Caldwell because he got what people mostly look for, jumping.

Bledsoe / Nate / Farmar

Gay / G-Air-ald Green / James White
Griffin / Jeremy Evans
Dwight / DeAndre

more of a dunk specialist team

[SexSymbol]

PG - Westbrook / Iverson / Rose
SG - Jordan / Sh.Brown / Iguodala
SF - J.White / James / J.Moon
PF - B.Griffin / Kemp / B.Russell
C - Wilt / GAP / Shaq / D.Robinson

Great spacing, you'll win every game you play.

These threads are always ruined by those saying Charles Barkley.

B-b-b-ut he was only 6'5 and grabbed the most rebounds and dunked easily.

YES, he is one of the goat PF's, but don't come say he was the most athletic PF of all time. More athletic than Griffin? Prime KG? Come on.
