Your team's Top 5 all time drafted player

[e's Nikees]

Name your team's Top 5 but they had to be drafted by the team.

Don't know if this has been done before but I am interested in seeing what you guys come up with.

[Smook A.]

1. Hakeem Olajuwon
2. Ralph Sampson
3. Elvin Hayes
4. Calvin Murphy
5. Yao Ming

[Qwyjibo]

"Top 5" as in a starting lineup? Or simply best players drafted?

If it's a starting lineup then:

PG - Damon Stoudamire
SG - Demar Derozan
SF - Tracy McGrady
PF - Antawn Jamison
C - Chris Bosh

EDIT: Maybe Bosh at PF and Camby at C as another option.

[kamil]

Chicago Bulls:

Michael Jordan
Derrick Rose
Joachim Noah
LeMarcus Aldridge
Horace Grant

[JohnFreeman]

Peja Stojakovic
Tyreke Evans
Jason Williams
Demarcus Cousins
Hedo Turkoglu

[e's Nikees]

Yeah Starting Lineup.
That's a good lineup but dude how do you not pick Vince Carter? :eek:
Antawn Jaminson? Do you want to compete for a championship? :confusedshrug:

[L.Kizzle]

This one might win the chip.

Technically the Raptors drafted Jamison and then traded him for Carter. I'm just going by literally "drafted player".

[L.Kizzle]

Carter was drafted by the Warriors than traded for his future brother in law Vince Carter.

Ralph Sampson.

He's getting stripped everytime down the court

OKC didn't draft Payton or Kemp. Stop it.

[Hamtaro CP3KDKG]

OKC didn't draft Payton or Kemp. Stop it.
Yes they did
Glove and Reignman are Thunder to the death........

[JohnFreeman]

Yes they did
Glove and Reignman are Thunder to the death........

Q: Is there anything the Oklahoma City Thunder can do to convince you to retire your jersey there?

Payton: "No. There is nothing they can do. I'm sorry. It's nothing against Oklahoma City. I never played in Oklahoma City. I would never disrespect the Seattle fans like that."

I know you are trolling though.

[Hamtaro CP3KDKG]

I know you are trolling though.
GP is just saying that. He cant change history and history says hes a Thunder ride or die.......

[KobesFinger]

G - Magic
G - West
F - Baylor
F - Worthy
C - Vlade Divac or Marc Gasol

[K Xerxes]

Bulls already have been done, but just thinking about the Lakers.

Magic Johnson
Jerry West
James Worthy
Elgin Baylor
Vlade Divac

That's a hell of a team.


Chicago Bulls:

Michael Jordan
Derrick Rose
Joachim Noah
LeMarcus Aldridge
Horace Grant

Would give Kukoc a mention.


OKC didn't draft Payton or Kemp. Stop it.

Or Durant lol.

[JohnFreeman]

Or Durant lol.
True, but Kemp and Paytons jerseys are retired in Seattle

[TheMilkyBarKid]

Peja Stojakovic
Tyreke Evans
Jason Williams
Demarcus Cousins
Hedo Turkoglu

Penny hardaway?

[JohnFreeman]

Penny hardaway?
wut

[fpliii]

Baylor
West
Magic
Worthy

are the obvious first four. Maybe Cooper?

[kamil]

Would give Kukoc a mention.

I had him on my list, but quickly replaced him with Aldridge. Others that are worth mentioning are Elton Brand and Ron Artest.

[TheMilkyBarKid]

wut
Wasn't he drafted by the kings and traded for webber?

[Duggrr]

Damian Lillard (Tempted to put in Lionel Hollins.)
Brandon Roy
Clyde Drexler
Moses Malone
Bill Walton

[Sakkreth]

Technically the Raptors drafted Jamison and then traded him for Carter. I'm just going by literally "drafted player".

Anyways Bosh at PF and Camby at C makes better lineup imo.

[Hamtaro CP3KDKG]

Damian Lillard (Tempted to put in Lionel Hollins.)
Brandon Roy
Clyde Drexler
Moses Malone
Bill Walton
Wow this is easily the best team for a peak team..................too bad Portland is so unlucky.......

[dreamwarrior]

Elgin Baylor
Rudy Larusso (5x all star, 16/10)

[MrC1991]

Chicago Bulls:

Michael Jordan
Derrick Rose
Joachim Noah
LeMarcus Aldridge
Horace Grant

Was going to do this exact line up. Kind of wish we kept LMA though.

[WillC]

Peja Stojakovic
Tyreke Evans
Jason Williams
Demarcus Cousins
Hedo Turkoglu

Christ

If you're including the Royals - which you should - then the team would look more like this:

C - Demarcus Cousins
PF - Jerry Lucas
SF - Jack Twyman
SG - Oscar Robertson
PG - Nate Archibald

I'd take Twyman (Hall of Famer) over Peja at small forward.

I'd like to find room for Maurice Stokes on the team, who was on track to be a top 20 player of all-time, but his career was cut short so I'll go with Lucas and Cousins at PF/C instead.

Oscar isn't a shooting guard, but let's be honest, a backcourt of the Big O and Tiny Archibald would be too good to be true. No way Tyreke Evans makes it in above those two.

[WillC]

I win...

C - Bill Russell
PF - Bob Pettit
SF - Josh Smith
SG - Pete Maravich
PG - Bob Cousy

Bench:

Pau Gasol
Lenny Wilkens
David Thompson

[WillC]

I'm being liberal with positions here, because this team would be incredible...

C - Shawn Kemp / Jack Sikma
PF - Kevin Durant
SF - Scottie Pippen
SG - Dennis Johnson
PG - Gary Payton

[MrC1991]

I'm being liberal with positions here, because this team would be incredible...

C - Shawn Kemp / Jack Sikma
PF - Kevin Durant
SF - Scottie Pippen
SG - Dennis Johnson
PG - Gary Payton

That would be amazing to watch but honestly I'd start Pip at the 4 rather than Durant.

[WillC]

Last one for me. This is perhaps the best or second best...

C - Wilt Chamberlain
PF - Nate Thurmond
SF - Rick Barry
SG - Mitch Richmond
PG - Stephen Curry

Bench (pick your poison):

Paul Arizin
Chris Mullin
Robert Parish
Tim Hardaway
Jamaal Wilkes
Joe Fulks
Tom Gola
Neil Johnston
Latrell Sprewell
Penny Hardaway
Klay Thompson
Gilbert Arenas
Monta Ellis

[Killbot]

Beat me too it. Not to mention Sonics drafted Russell Westbrook, Vinnie Johnson, Rashard Lewis, and Serge Ibaka to wrap up the rest of the backups.

Xavier McDaniel is also a good 5th big

[Bird]

Mavs:

Jason Kidd
Mark Price (drafted by Dallas in the 2nd rd in 86)
Detlef Shrempf

And then pick two of Jamal Mashburn, Rolando Blackmon, Derek Harper, Dale Ellis, Mark Aguirre, Sam Perkins and Kiki Vandeweghe.

Dallas hasn't exactly had the greatest track record when it comes to draftees.

[Bird]

Last one for me. This is perhaps the best or second best...

C - Wilt Chamberlain

Bench (pick your poison):

Paul Arizin
Chris Mullin
Robert Parish
Tim Hardaway
Jamaal Wilkes
Joe Fulks
Tom Gola
Neil Johnston
Latrell Sprewell
Penny Hardaway
Klay Thompson
Gilbert Arenas
Monta Ellis

This is just me, but I would take Mullin over Richmond.

You could definitely go either way, but Mullin is just my preference. Probably the DEEPEST squad out of every team though. That draftee list is insane , though their frontcourt depth wouldn't be that great.

RAY was drafted by Minnesota but traded for Steph Marbury.

Damn wasn't aware we drafted Laimbeer! Good list though, that's a damn good team

[Milbuck]

Gary Payton
Russell Westbrook
Kevin Durant
Shawn Kemp

Pippen was drafted by the Sonics too.

Payton

Ultra small ball..but holy shit :biggums:

The Mavericks actually drafted Mark Price in the 2nd round in 1986. They did trade him during the draft to the Cavaliers.

For a 2nd round pick in 1989 :facepalm
