That's cheating, the players should be considered for their ability when they were at the team!

Ewing at the sonics/magic is just wrong

Same with Hakeem at the Raptors

I think Vin Baker had a few handy seasons at Seattle, before getting on the drink. Otherwise i am not sure if they've had many good big men?

nichj99 · Nov 21, 2013

For laughs, bobcats (not hornets) starting 5

Kemba Walker (Sorry Felton, Augustin)
Stephen Jackson
Gerard Wallace
Emeka Okafor
Tyson Chandler

I think Patrick Ewing even at his time at Seattle might have been the best center that Seattle have had

Can't think of many others - Perkins maybe?

Actually they had Chambers, Sickma and Haywood who are all very capable (and better than Baker). I know Chambers but i am not too familiar with the others.

Nuggets:

Lawson

Melo would be there but he's a douche.

What about Mutombo???

Edit: Looking up Issel's stats, fair enough choice!

drob50 · Nov 21, 2013

I'll throw up an idea for Houston

PG- Calvin Murphy
SG- Tracy McGrady or Steve Francis
SF- Clyde Drexler
PF- Elvin Hayes
C- Hakeem

Mutumbo would be 6th

Lawson
Thompson
English
Issel
Mutombo

Could go big w/ Thompson at the 2

Haha don't be sorry kemba really is the better player.

Jack Sikma was a beast on the boards and in the post in his heyday. But yeah, Seattle hasn't had much luck with getting competent big men in their prime. The only real big man they've drafted and stuck with for a while were Earvin Johnson, Nick Collison and Muhammed Saer Sene ... and we all know what happened with them.

Verse1 · Nov 22, 2013

Ahh yes, Ervin "Tragic" Johnson.

(In Seattle,Gary Payton was in perpetual danger of suffering a sprained jaw and larynx, sometimes jabbering even as he drove to the basket. Payton was so verbally inclined that he even trashed his own teammates, referring, for instance, to Sonics center Ervin Johnson as "Tragic Johnson.")

That's funny to hear. I wonder if they inspired Shaq's use of "Tragic Bronson" for Javale McGee.

Speaking of which, i had forgotten about Shaqtin' a Fool this season - http://allball.blogs.nba.com/category/shaqtin-a-fool/
