Hornacek over Jerry West? You gotta read up on NBA history. west was one of the greatest players of all time.

 

Starting five:

 

PG-Stockton

SG-West

PF-McHale

SF-Bird

C-Walton

 

Walton when healthy was one of greatest centers in history. George Mikan was supposively a great center as well but he was in the early early years of the NBA and its tough to compare him to todays players. Bob Cousy was also a great point guard worth mentioning.

How can you not remember Thunder Dan and Tom Chambers. I figured you would still have their posters on the wall.

[KSB2424 3,148]

Hey isn't Jason Kidd half white? We call dibs first!!

I considered West a PG, not a SG. White NBA history is weak at the 2 Guard.

 

I don't like to change guy's positions on my lists. Just like I hate when all time outfields have 3 CF's for example.

HTH!

[listen2me 23 1,825]

Chris Dudley.

[listen2me 23 1,825]

Seriously though.

 

Chris Mullin maybe?

 

I think we should keep it to American Whites.

[KSB2424 3,148]

Chris Dudley.

He was no Kelly Tripucka that's for sure.

[donhaas 18]

Randy Breuer

Brad Lohaus

[lambert58 71]

Wow, Just Wow. Brad Lohus? COME ON PEOPLE!!!

 

 

C. Walton - Great player when Healthy

 

PF. Jerry Lucas - Great scorer and Rebounder. Dominate player and top 50 all-time

 

SF. Larry Bird - Nothing needs to be said about Bird

 

SG. Jerry Sloan - One of the best defenders to play the Guard position

 

PG. Jerry West - Great All-Around Player

 

 

 

Bench:

 

C. George Mikan - First dominant big-man at 6-10.

P.F. Kevin McHale - His shot was as unstoppable as Kareem's sky hook

SF. Bill Bradley - Great Player inside and out

SG. Chris Mullin - Sweet shooting lefty that could play the 2 or 3

PG. John Stockton - Tough on Defense, great assist guy, and could score when needed.

 

Specialist: Thunder Dan, Rik Smits

[edjr 6,578]

no one has mentioned Uwe Blab yet?

[edjr 6,578]

Jason Kidd is as white as Rev. Jeremiah Wright

[lambert58 71]

no one has mentioned Uwe Blab yet?

 

 

OOOO-VAYYY

[patweisers44 815]

The 1977-78 Washington Generals have to be part of the discussion at least.

[jerryskids 6,567]

Wow, Just Wow. Brad Lohus? COME ON PEOPLE!!!

I was on a plane in 1989 flying to or from Detroit/Boston, don't remember which direction. Anyway, I sat next to a hottie, and as a young stud I was figuring out how to work some magic. Then she opened the sports page; I dern near creamed my pants, hot and a sports fan?! Anyway, I talked to her and she was Brad Lohaus's wife.

West was a shooting guard.

 

ESPN ranked him number 3 greatest shooting guard behind MJ and Kobe.

tom gugilotta or however u spelled it....

My bad. Then he is the obvious 2 guard.

 

1. Stockton (or Nash maybe)

2. West

3. Bird

4. Dirk (I like him over McHale)

5. Walton

Mchale was a monster in the low post and was clutch in playoffs. He was also a top defensive player and was on numerous all defensive teams. Dirk plays more like a small forward if you ask me and would not be as good complement to Bird.

Took way too long for Rick Barry's name to finally be on a list.

[Juniper 0]

Rick Barry and Bob Cousy have received scant mention; a few more old school white players include Dolph Schayes, Dave Cowens, Paul Arizin, Bill Sharman, Dave DeBusschere, Bob Pettit and Billy Cunningham.
