@trixlee5102 3 года назад

@@gregoryone90 It's the rule changes. Zone defenses, Soft fouling, relaxed traveling rules have all changed the game. The 80s were primarily focused on the low post game, which is not the focus today. People didn't shoot the 3 like they do today. I think that is what the OP is trying to describe by saying "pure basketball." Also, there are many players - especially shooters - who would benefit by all of the rule changes today. A guy like Bird would flourish in today's game - he'd get the benefit of better training and medicine and he could shoot outside all day. He'd also get the benefit of the zone defense rule as he could more easily leave his man to swarm and jump in passing lanes - one of his specialties. It would better hide the fact that he was an average man-to-man defender.

Best players by traditional position and 2 non traditional players as number 6's. Best careers are not considered in this list. This team would never work do to egos and needing the ball in their hands, but it is the best, I think. 1 will shock. Big to small. Center is the most skilled traditional center of all-time: Wilt Chamberlain. Best power forward came out of college as a center, but because of David Robinson, he played as a power forward: Tim Duncan. Best traditional small forward needs to score inside and out, rebound and shoot free throws. Passing ability doesn't hurt: Larry Bird. Shooting guard. If the goat never played in the NBA Kobe would surely be here: Jordan. Best tradition point guard. Phenonemal defender and a triple double machine. Why does he get overlooked?: Jason Kidd. 3 of these players would play well together and 2 not. Guess which 2. Best 6 man: Magic Johnson. We know he is good, but not a great defender. Great leader, but so was Kidd. Lebron James. Despite his amazing ability to drive to the basket, which also facilitates his passing and assists is Inconsistent on defense, is a poor outside shooter and is an average freethrow shooter puts him behind Bird at small forward, but we do need him on the team.

Perfect lineup

@chambeet 3 года назад

Can't say I'd argue with that. McHale is my only question, but I am not sure if, say, Malone was better by the late '80s. You'd need '87 Magic, '88 Jordan, '86 Bird, Jabbar from '80, and McHale from some year in there.

@@chambeet I think Malone was great cause he played with Stockton abs that deadly pick n roll also i think McHale is a little more versatile on both sides of the ball

@leeprice2849 3 года назад

@@chambeet Power forward is the hardest to pick Malone Duncan Garnett Barkley could have gone with any of them as well. I just like McHale the most.

@LegendOfKhaos12 2 года назад

Magic obviously Jordan obviously Bird obviously and then McHale and then I think Moses is almost an easy choice over Kareem if it’s for only the 80s. He also beat kareem and the lakers

@LegendOfKhaos12 2 года назад

I think they’re all obvious choice except mchale, I can see Barkley.

MJ was so good that Isiaha and the pistons had to play dirty just to slow MJ down. Lambeer has to literally punch and clothesline people to stop, he was the cheapest player to ever play.

moses is with duncan the most underrated player ever. AND he was the best center in the 80s not karrem.

@chambeet 3 года назад

I certainly believe that Moses is among the most underrated players ever, I agree. I think maybe in 1980 Kareem was a little bit better, but shortly thereafter Moses surpassed him.

@ericfurst6091 3 года назад

@@chambeet more succesful for sure but i truly think moses was the best in the 80s (2 MVP, FMVP, etc.). The last jigsaw for DR J. He destroyed the showtime lakers in the finals (+18 RPG - 25.8 PPG). Kareem was 36 (i think) in the finals.

By 1987 Michael Jordan was already the best player in the league he just didn't had the overall team to win but look at the numbers and accomplishments from 1987 onwards.

I’m surprised Isaiah was actually talking up MJ the first 3/4 of his talk on him but then he had to be the hater and bring up the Bulls being kicked from the playoffs in the first round. I mean the Bulls had their guy in the 80s they just needed to find players to play around him which they did in the 90s. Isaiah had lots of players arpund him, Magic and Larry did as well, that’s why they won Championships in the 80s then they got older, and then MJ caught up with them with having players around him and the rest is history.
