Just found this neat thing on ESPN. espn.go.com/espn/greatestteam/index/_/teamId/5556371/the-greatest-hawks-team-all-timeIt let's you build the greatest team of all time from your favorite franchises. I am gonna try to do all 30 and would like to hear everyone's review on it. ONE NOTE: if there are certain players for certain franchises that are stuck in the same position your not allowed to change them (that's the one BS THING about the ESPN thing, it won't let you say move Kareem or Wilt to PF and start Shaq at Center). |

Kareem and Wilt are WAY better than Shaq... I agree in the overall spectrum I have Shaq as 5th greatest Center of all time (I think Russell, Wilt, Kareem, and Hakeem are better then Shaq is). 1. Russell 2. Wilt 3. Kareem 4. Hakeem 5. Shaq I didn't know who to place though, do you go with Shaq/Wilt who can draw constant double teams, or the finesse and versatility and also a guy that helps open up the fast break game. It's a tough one because each brought great result for the Lakers, I am going with the default pick, at first I picked Kareem, but then I changed it to Shaq, I might change the pick again. |
