All-time NBA team

[CycloneRulzzz]

So, the Shaq being the greatest center debate got me to thinking what everyone would have as their all-time NBA team. Mine would look like this...

PG- Magic Johnson
SG- Michael Jordan
SF- Larry Bird (Im sure the LeBron lovers will jump me for that one)
PF- Tim Duncan
C- Shaq

Pretty good one. I'd have Karl Malone at PF though.

I am only 33 but the replies seem to be a little biased towards the 80's and 90's. I know it is hard to get a list down to 5 but Oscar, Wilt and Bill Russell have to be strongly considered.

I would say (top 5 players):

Oscar
MJ
Wilt
Russell
Magic

Stockton-PG
Jordan-SG
Magic-SF
Karl Malone-PF
Shaq-C

Bench
Larry Bird
Oscar Robertson
Clyde Frazier
Lew Alcindor
Bill Russell
Isaiah Thomas
Paul Shirley-12th man/ Team Beat Writer

Coach-Chuck Daly

Your bench would beat your first team badly every single time they played. How is it possible to have a list of 11 NBA all-timers that doesn't include Wilt Chamberlain?

No doubt. And it's Kareem, not Lew, been that way for some time now.
