All-Time NBA Draft Round 1: Hack vs. Thee jazz fan

Who would win in a 7 game series?

  • Total voters
    27
  • Poll closed .
Hack team is fun. I dont think Ray Allen, Klay Thompson or Anthony Davis belong in starter category in this game. These are the greatest of all time players. Those three were not the best of their generation. Anthony might become that but not yet. The centers is close but wilt is the better player on both ends of the court. Its kind of a push at PG for me. I do like the camp Shaq and shoot strategy but its not like Wilt is going to get pushed around so that kind of throws this strategy off when he doesnt demand a double team. Not sure about Durant starting but there is enough flexibility with the team to play what is working.

I am guessing Hack will win though because he has all current or recent players. But Klay, Wiggins, Favors and Horry are not players that should have been drafted when we are talking about the greatest of all time players. Outside of Shaq those starters are meh as far as best of all time at their positions and Wilt is better than Shaq.
 
Worthy is severely under-rated on this board. He was a true star, and could take over a game at will. He earned his name Big Game James. When push came to shove there wouldn't be anyone to focus enough on Worthy to slow him down, imo. Have to give this to TJF.
 
I'm voting Hack just because he's usually the most creative and gives a compelling case. Haven't looked at the teams tho.

What?

How can you say Ray Allen or Anthony Davis don't belong as starters?

Davis is a top5, maybe top 2 player in the game today. Just because he doesn't have a long resume, doesn't mean his game isn't legit.

Was Worthy a top5 player ever? I don't remember that he was.

Ray Allen is arguably the best shooter ever. Put up monster numbers. Made numerous all star games.
 
I haven't voted, but my choice would be Hack's team.
Although Shaq would be gassed after about 2 minutes trying to run with that team.
 
We have recency bias against players being shifted out of position. TBH, I'm not super impressed by either team, except for the battle at the 5. It would be fun to see Shaq in his prime face Wilt. That would be a war! Even with the Westbrook/West problem at PG and Durant at the 4, I'll take Thee's team. Give Hack's team a few more years to grow up and that might change. Like others I have a problem with voting for Klay, Wiggins, etc. because they just haven't been stars long enough.

At PF. Starter at Sf spot would be between him and worthy. That is close.

And yes top 5 player maybe... right now who has 1 playoff series loss is not in the same discussion as worthy. One day maybe not yet. Davis has proven nothing and won nothing. I think Davis if healthy will join elite company but is not yet elite or one of the greatest of all time.

Ah. Before you simply stated that you weren't sure about Durant starting. Concerns about him at the 4 are understandable.
