This yr's Grizz v.s. all-time Vancouver Grizz?

This yr's Grizz team are by far the best Grizz team EVER. So how will they fair against a team made up of the best ex-Grizz players back in the Vancouver days?

All-time Vancouver Grizzlies team:
C Bryant Reeves
PF Othella Harrington
SF Shareef Abdul-Rahim
SG Michael Dickerson
PG Mike Bibby
Greg Anthony
Blue Edwards
Antonio Daniels
George Lynch
Cherokee Parks
Felipe Lopez
Otis Thorpe

Even with all these guys in their prime, they still wouldn't stand a chance against the Grizz of today.

How 'bout we throw in Stro? and throw in Gerald Wallace, Byron Scott and Dennis Scott in their prime too? nope, they'd still lose...

How 'bout we throw in Steve Francis too? nope, still lose...

The best players in a 5yr span, and even assuming if every of these guys were in their prime, and they still can't beat the Grizzlies of today. So what's my point? Well, either that we in Vancouver had to live with a very very sad team for 5 yrs, or that the Grizz team this yr has improved so much its unbelievable. I think it's a bit of both.

Congrats again on making the playoffs and best of luck against the Spurs

This yr's grizz is definitely better.

Though looking at the all-time vancouver grizz, you see that they did have some pretty good talent. Reeves, Harrington, Reef, Dickerson, and Bibby was one of the youngest and most talented lineups in the league. If it weren't for injuries and trades, they may have had a shot at the playoffs too.
