If I was on Reggie Miller's place and had his picks, I will select this defensive monster: MJ, Hakeem, LeBron, Robinson, Payton, Howard, Mourning, Rodman, Wade, Dumars. Go ahead and try to score 70 points on me :-) That's size, incredible defense, rebounding, toughness, athleticism, speed, scoring, plus greatest player ever, absolutely unbeatable team.
I am sorry, but how can McHale not choose Jordan? Even Bird would say he made a bad pick (Although Bird isn't a bad player obviously). Reggie must have been beside himself at the luck, the luck he didn't have as a player playing against Jordan during his career. LOL Kinda weird that Jordan was picked in the 3rd spot for AGAIN.
Imagine Magic, MJ, Bird or Pippen, Hakeem @ PF and Shaq at Center! Now thats a team that can score, defend, rebound, pass & dominate. All can shoot 3s & FTs except Shaq.
AI sounds like a joke now but he was an mvp, 11 time all star, 1st pick in the greatest draft ever and the best player in that draft ( I mean kobe wasn't as good then so yeah) made the finals with only a bag of rebounders, 4 time scoring champ, multiple steals champ and 2 time all star mvp so he's not too bad in my book :)
@spleenunited YOu have to love Charles Barkley. Great player and hilarious! Charles: Wait, this isnt just for the All Star game Even Kenny: "Wait, I thought this was a charity event." Reggie: Charles went with Sam Bowie, Kevin went with Olajuwon, I get the GOAT in Air Jordan. McHale: I'm biased, I'll take Larry Bird.
@theAIRJORDANblitz Yeah the guy could be a fruit cake at times but he has 5 rings and knew how to agitate the opponent's best players, 7 straight rebound titles, 2xDPOTY, and now a HOF'er! There's some guys that really weren't even mentioned like Sidney Moncrief, Mo Cheeks, even Mcgrady or this one guy that everyone forgets about and that is Kevin Johnson who would fit nicely anywhere. I was surprised that not even Barkley mentioned his former teammate K.J.. COME ON MAN!
@Young3Buck That team was built around A.I. Magic and Iverson are two completely different types of players. I don't like to speculate because that's only what it is, speculation. Magic made everyone around him better and he was a winner. To me, he's among the greatest of all time. Top 10 just to be sure, but he might be top 5.
@Young3Buck I disagree. First of all, I don't consider Iverson a PG but a SG. But seems we're talking PG's Magic, Oscar, Isiah, etc were better than him. I'm an Iverson fan and he is an amazing talent, but he's not among those.
hated him when he played against the bulls but i really respect reggie miller. he has become a fantastic broadcaster. and barkley, is a complete and utter tool. ffs, allen iverson?!??? even allen iverson would have picked jordan.
@oneman91 I'd replace Stockton on Reggie's Squad for Isaih tho. Quicker, better scorer and better defense. Olajuwon as his Reggie's PF. Amazing! I'd take Shaq as center but Reggie couldnt have picked Shaq & Olajuwon unfortunately. I think the best team overall would be Magic, MJ, Scottie or Bird, Olajuwon and Shaq. Height, defense, power and dont even have to question offense.
