Someone at TNT had to make this just to annoy people.

I can’t even decide which row annoys me most.

[warriorfan]

Carmelo sitting next to Bill Russell is the best one. :roll:

[JohnMax]

Durant at 1 point? Dude is arguably second greatest perimeter scorer.

[warriorfan]

Durant, Russell, Duncan, and West are the best value. Throw MJ on top of all that and there you go. I don’t see a team beating that. (KG and Russell are interchangeable as well)

[fourkicks44]

I don't really take too much notice of this shit, but perhaps they are just basing it on All-Star game performances?

I hope so anyway :facepalm

[Kblaze8855]

I thought so but the guy with the most all star mvps isn’t even on it nor is Karl Malone with 2 or Oscar with 3.

[highwhey]

Lebron+anyone on that list is a guaranteed Finals presence, no one on that list can carry scrubs to the finals like Bron. :rolleyes:

[Kblaze8855]

I would like to see prime Lebron with a team with as little offensive talent as AI had in 01. Eric Snow, George Lynch, Tyrone Hill, and Mutombo on the court all at once.

Spacing would be hilarious.

[brooks_thompson]

Man, I expected bad when I clicked, then I sorta twitched when I saw O'Neal at 4 points vs the 5 point guys. By the time I read the whole thing...well, here I am typing from the emergency room. Bird at 3 points...and Russell at 2! Good lord

[Docs Orders]

poor Steph, still can't crack Top 25 :(

[RRR3]

Spacing didn’t matter that much back then, clearly. Who was that team’s best 3pt shooter? Iverson? :lol

[fsvr54]

Bird on the 3rd row and Barkley on the 4th is ludicrous.

[imdaman99]

Kobe

Wilt, Duncan, Bird

Westbrook

Leggo :rockon:

[Kblaze8855]

Yea it was Iverson. Career wise it would be Raja Bell who played 30 minutes that entire season. Mckie was worse than AI, Snow was a worse shooter than most of ISH, and Kevin Olie made 9 threes in his career.

Yep, particularly considering AI was the king of the long two pull up jumper, a type of shot which Lebron hits around 30%.

[FKAri]

Duncan/KG/Bird/KD/Stockton

[Hamtaro CP3KDKG]

Doesnt even tell u how many points u got:biggums:

[SamuraiSWISH]

People don’t seem to get this, and it’s usually telling of who actually watched ball back then. Iverson shot a lot yes, as he was his teams basically only scoring option. But he didn’t dominate possession time, and dribble air out the ball like Westbrick, Harden, LeBron etc he actually played off the ball and ran off screens for a lot of catch n shoot opportunities.

[SouBeachTalents]

So there's really no explanation as to how this was put together, or what their formula was. You honestly couldn't ask for a more random selection of players, or how their point value was put together. How do they even settle on Carter or Melo being there, but leave out clearly more accomplished players like Oscar, both Malones, Robinson, Curry etc.

[Spurs m8]

TNT is one of the reasons the average NBA fan and Bron stan is so stupid.

Its mind numbing, fake agenda bullshit.

Someone like LAbruh -or whatever that moron is called - would get all his info from TNT...would explain his stupidity...poor little guy

[sd3035]

How many points?

12 point team

Kobe/MJ
Bird
Russell
Durant
Stockton

[sd3035]

Here's a big team that would cause some matchup problems

Dirk
Russell
Olajuwan
Bird
Lebron (pg)

[iamgine]

Westbrook
Jordan
West
Erving
Olajuwon

All "face turning to the right" team.

[ronniec]

I don't know how Anthony could get on to this list...

[Wally450]

Assuming its 15 points, I got:

Stockton(1), Bird (3), LeBron (5), Barkley(2), Shaq(4)

[FireDavidKahn]

Iverson................................over Bird?:oldlol:

[ArbitraryWater]

Bill Russell right next to Melo looks about right

[pauk]

Wilt / Bird = Vince Carter

Respect.

[jayfan]

I'm pretty sure they have these guys ranked as All-Star Game performers. As opposed to simply best players....

Isiah, for instance, is a historically great All-Star Game performer. Hence, tier 4.


.

[Kblaze8855]

But then Westbrook wouldn’t be in the last group.

[SouBeachTalents]

But then Westbrook wouldn’t be in the last group.
And Oscar wouldn't be left off altogether. His averages are better than Jordan's & Kobe's

[SamuraiSWISH]

Magic and Bird should NEVER be on separate tiers. It’s basketball racism at its finest. Magic was never better than healthy Bird, let alone a tier above. Idk if Kobe belongs on that top tier. Might swap him and Larry Legend. Carter being one that tier with Duncan is ridiculously stupid as well.

[superduper]

Lebron+anyone on that list is a guaranteed Finals presence, no one on that list can carry scrubs to the finals like Bron. :rolleyes:

If we're talking strictly about the weakest conference in the history of the NBA then agreed 100%.

The West in the 80s?

[red1]

[Pushxx]

Hahahaha Vince Carter above Dirk, KG, Barkley, and Jerry ****ing West?
