Best Jazz line up of all time

Don't think he scored in bunches.

I'm not downplaying his role on that team but I am downplaying his talent vs all time greats like pistol pete, and d-will.
I don't think b-russ ever made any all star games. And it's not only because of his role on the jazz. He just didn't have all star level talent.

I think that an all time greats team would have all star capable players at each position. That's just my opinion though.

Picking guys like Russell or Shandon Anderson on your all-time Jazz team would be equivalent to someone offering you a steak dinner anywhere you want (price is not an object)...and you choose Sizzler.
 
Maybe it is because of the way the current era plays, or maybe I am just old, but how does Eaton get no consideration? Sure he sucked on offense, but he was Rudy+. And no love for the Golden Griff? I couldn't stop at six, so I did starting and back up line ups.

Stockton
Pistol Pete
Hayward
Malone
Favors


D Will
Horny
AK
Dantley
Eaton
 
Stockton
Horny
AK 47
Malone
Eaton

and I guess I'll take Okur because I'm not sure what the rules are gonna be and who we're going to be playing...my guards are small and my centers are slow but I'll live with it.

Roger braille is one of the best things ever.
I think that name came around the same time I opened my account.
 
Stock
Pistol
Danley
Malone
Favors

D will
Horn
Hayward
Kirilenko
Gobert


I did a first and second team. The hard ones to leave off are memo and Eaton.

Thurl Bailey is a good backup mascot of bear gets injured.
 
My lineups against specific teams, current rules:
1. Bulls, 96/97/96

Deron Williams (IMHO Stockton wasn't that good against Harper-Jordan-Pippen combo)
Gordon Hayward
Andrei Kirilenko
Karl Malone
Mehmet Okur (i think he could handle more than enough Longley, Kukoc and Rodman)

6th man (who could give some rest to everybody) - Stockton; Malone and Okur could play PF/C, Kirilenko SF/PF, Hayward SG/SF and DWill PG/SG

2. Lakers, 87/88/89

Have not seen that Lakers against Jazz, so:

Stockton
Hayward
Kirilenko
Malone
Gobert (havent seen Jabbar vs Eaton)

6th man - difficult to choose a versatile guy who when substituted does not lower the quality against Johnson, Scott, Worthy, Green, Jabbar. Although it seams that 87/88/89 version of Jabbar wasn't a very big threat anymore.
Could a 96/97/98 version of BRuss guard Worthy, Scott and/or Magic?

Current Warriors:
Those Jazz players who can run 800m distance under 2 minutes without problems :-) and hit at least 2 three pointers during that run.

Maybe somebody could post a best lineup against Lebron-Wade-Bosh Heat team (current rules)?
 
For real though:

Stockton
Hornacek
Soon to be Hood (Hayward as of now)
Malone
Gobert (will end up being the greatest Jazz center of all time)
