Every NBA Franchise’s All-Time Starting 5, Ranked

[Wamu]

The Lakers make me sick.

 

[dtgold88]

For the Cavs I'd replace Big Z with Kevin Love. @dtgold88 gonna like this.

Gonna do mine without looking at theirs, though seems like a no-brainer....

Daugherty
Nance
Lebron
Kyrie
Price

Yes, Nance over Love. Nance is my all-time favorite Cavalier (but that isn't why he makes it).

 

[dtgold88]

To not have Lebron or Bosh on the Heat all time roster is ridiculous.

I get they were not there long but they were the best sf/pf in Heat history?

Isn't that what the list is about?

My Heat starting 5 would be Hardaway, Wade, Bron, Bosh, and probably Shaq

Unless there's a rule a player can only be named for one team on their list.

But I agree Bosh/Lebron are both part of the Heat all time starting 5. Not like they had just a 1-2 year cameo.

That's the same starting 5 in the article. Should have mentioned that Love would be the 6th man. My bad.

 

[Rock Strongo]

i dunno, but id have kept some of the older celtics off the list. id have put dino radja somewhere there in the honorable mentions if we were going off more than just NBA accolades.

HOF

2 euro champsionships

Think Greg Kite would be a good 6th man?

its odd, because portland included sabonis, who was 50% of the player he was in europe by the time he got here (knees were shot).

You left out CRAIG EHLO!!!

 

[Rock Strongo]

You left our CRAIG EHLO!!!

sadly, his career highlight

 

[RP-29]

Bucks are right where they should be. Founded in 1968 and one of their 5 best players of all time is a 1x all-star. Embarrassing.

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

Ahh yes, "The Crumple"

 

[Wamu]

sadly, his career highlight

Same for Byron Russell.

 

[dtgold88]

sadly, his career highlight

He almost had a legit one.....he scored right before this to give the cavs the lead.

the "flu" game...errr...jordan was hungover.

 

[dtgold88]

I'd say they got it right....I'd also make Love the 6th man, but Z was also a fav. of mine. Used to work out at the JCC I went to. Good dude. Trainer was an ass.

thus, sadly.

 

[Nosferatu]

I thought sure the Wolves would be dead last...

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

For the Lakers I would have taken Jerry West out and put Worthy in

He's no Klay Thompson

There is that rule
