Your NBA starting 5

Perfection?

 

I'd rather have

 

1-Magic

2-Michael

3-Larry

4-Karl

5-Patrick

 

6-Charles

(not all time, but players from the same era)

 

Great team! But give me Hakeem over Patrick though. That team is really stacked!

Perfection?
It's obviously not perfection if you're choosing players not currently playing...

Nash

Kobe

Marion

Garnett

Duncan

 

6th-I think this should be someone that does/has actually come off the bench a lot. I will say Ben Gordon, but he has been starting lately so without him available I will go with David Lee.

:confused:

 

If we are not gonna count Ben Gordan for 6th man since he has been starting then it has gotta be Leandro Barbosa for the Suns. Barbosa scored in double-digits every game in January including five outings of 20 points or more and a game winner against Ben's Bulls to start it all off on Jan. 2. He is averaging 17 ppg, 3 boards & 4 assists off the bench. His last 3 games he has had 26 points, 16 points & another 16 point performance. Right now, the 6th man award goes to Barbosa.

 

Suns record - 41-13

Knicks record - 24-31

My starting 5 would have to be.

 

Nash

Wade

James

Garnett

Duncan

 

6th Man-Gilbert Arenas

Dennis Johnson

Danny Ainge

Robert Parrish

Kevin McCale

Larry Bird

 

Bill Walton

 

This team may be able to win a title or 3.

I forgot about Barbosa, and he is in the running for it. I dont think you can go by record in saying who is the better of the two. Barbosa has a little better teammates than Lee, as well as a coach. Lee probably plays a little less minutes than Barbosa, while still putting up a double double almost every night off the bench. Lee is probably shooting over 60% from the field as well. I havent looked at the efficiency ratings in a while, but I would think Lee would be pretty far up there with how many minutes he plays.

Just can't see a player on a losing (record) team win the award. That's if the Knicks finish the season with a losing record.

What are you trying to disprove? You basically proved my point that you bolded here, and proved my point of saying how efficient David Lee was.

I dont think you can punish David Lee for having a dumb coach either though. Is it D. Lee's fault that the Knicks have no coach and bad team chemistry? Lee would start for probably half the league.

They both come off the bench.

Barbosa does not even average 1 minute more than Lee but still Barbosa averages 6 points more than Lee & averages more steals.

Lee would start for probably half the league & Barbosa would probably start for the entire league...

Barbosa is the better all around player. Barbosa is the better 6th man.
