Lakers from 1993-97

Magic Johnson/Nick Van Exel
Kobe/Bryant/Eddie Jones/Byron Scott
James Worthy/Robert Horry
AC Green/Sam Perkins
Shaquille O'Neal/Vlade Divac/Elden Cambell

IR: Kurt Rambis/Cedric Ceballos/Jerome Kersey

the Magic you want to use (95-96) shouldnt be playing PG - kind of like the Heat's version of Payton shouldnt be confused with any semblance of tthe artist formerly known as...

so anyway everyone's a critic

maybe I'd put Wilt and Kareem together with Jerry West, Gail Goodrich and Elgin Baylor

I'm just going by their primes because that's fun.

Yea I guess it makes more sense to have a certain edition of a certain player vs prime. I guess we can do both?

96-00 Rockets

PG - Steve Francis/Sam Cassell
SG - Clyde Drexler/Cuttino Mobley
SF - Scottie Pippen/Mario Elie
PF - Charles Barkley/Robert Horry
C - Hakeem Olajuwon/Kevin Willis

Magic retired in 1991, although if you're allowed to count preseason games then I guess he's allowed in this situation.

Cavaliers 2008-2012

PG: Kyrie Irving/Mo Williams
SG: Delonte West/Shannon Brown
SF: Lebron James/J.J. Hickson/Alonzo Gee
PF: Ben Wallace/Anderson Varejao
C: Shaq/Big Z (don't feel like googling him just so I can properly spell his name)

Lebron, Ben and Shaq at the SF, PF, and C spots would make an incredible defensive squad.

How about the Bulls from (91-92) thru (95-96)?

PG Ron Harper/BJ Armstrong/John Paxson/Steve Kerr
SG Michael Jordan/Craig Hodges/Trent Tucker
SF Scottie Pippen/Toni Kukoc/Jud Buechler
PF Dennis Rodman/Horace Grant/John Salley
C Bill Cartwright/Luc Longley/Stacey King

Illegal number of players on the team, automatically doesn't count.

Since were using everyone in their primes you can add Robert Parish to the starting lineup.

Magic came back and played 32 games + the playoffs in 1996.

I'm pretty sure (from reading the OP) that as long as they played in the selected era then we are able to use them in their respective primes.

e-monk · 09-24-2012, 05:06 AM

oh then this is easy

Goodrich
West
Baylor
Wilt
Kareem

I just found out how to do it and now I use it all the time - business meetings, lunch conversations, in bed with my wife - applications are endless

If you're going by primes, why isn't Shaq the starter on that Suns team in the OP?
