    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Something-To-Say @ Sep 24 2006, 05:13 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Why aren't you counting SF?</div>Because Sunny thinks they are backcourt. He's too young to know better. Just because alot of teams play thier 3 as an extra guard. Der to him. I tihnk they should count. so mine is TD + Drob + Bowen. - Awesome defensive frontcourt!! TD and D-Rob - 5blks a game Bowen and his lock down D. The scoring well we all know what they would do.Sunny FYI. The guard positions are Backcourt and the Forwards and Centre are frouncourt.

    If you are going to count SF's, then the best front court is the 1986 Celtics. That's it. Nobody else comes close.

    My choice is TD and David Rob. There defense was amazing. They got all the boards and blocks.Oakely and Ewing. Ewing did the scoring blocking and rebounding. While Oakley crashed the boards. I love watching their games in the Knicks DVD.

SF's don't play in the post.When Bruce Bowen was on the Spurs, David Robinson wasn't as good compared to three years ago. A better Frontcourt + SF would be Sean Elliot, Tim Duncan and David Robinson of 1999.

    They aren't all that bad either. Pippen is a lockdown defender. Grant was an all-star, and a very good player in his own right. Cartwright was good with the Knicks, but he was used differntly with the Bulls.
