    If you could construct a 12 man roster with any player (American obviously) from any era, what would it look like?

    Mine(I'm sure I'll be missing someone obvious):

    C- Wilt Chamberlin
    PF-Bill Russell
    SF-Larry Bird
    SG- Michael Jordan
    PG- Oscar Robertson
    6- Kareem Abdul-Jabar
    7- Magic Johnson
    8- Kevin Garnett
    9- Julius Erving
    10- Kobe Bryant
    11- Bob Cousy
    12- Elgin Baylor


    13th man- Eddie House's son

    Take out Cousy and Bayler, add in Reggie Miller/Ray Allen and Pippen for long distance shooting and defense.

    I agree, foreign ball isn't so much about who is the best. Shooters are needed more than anything, did anyone see how Lithuania killed China? Shooters.

    Rick Barry > Miller and Allen. Probably Pippen too.
