**Edit - Maybe this should be in the Laker Skybox? ...not sure, didnt wanna throw nayone off, just starting a discussion.** It's prolly been posted a million times before, but i am curious what your picks would be. Mine are as follows, and some players will be out of position, but if i picked em at their primes to play against anyone...this is my lineup. C - Shaquille O'neal PF - Kareem Abdul-Jabbar SF - Elgin Baylor SG - Kobe Bryant PG - Magic Johnson **Edit....Smack myself in the head for forgetting Magic...oh i go on punishment for that one..eek** I usually change the positioning up...but id feel good about that lineup.
C - Kareem Abdul-Jabbar PF - Wilt Chamberlain SF - James Worthy SG - Magic Johnson PG - Jerry West 6th Shaquille O'neal 7th Elgin Baylor 8th Kobe Bryant 9th Byron Scott 10th Gail Goodrich 11th Michael Cooper 12th Jamal Wilkes 13th A.C. Green 14th Cedric Ceballos 15th Sam Perkins
Dang I have to say: C- Shaq Pf - Wilt Sf- Magic Sg - Kobe Pg - Jerry West Top Backups: Kareem, James Worth, Gail Goodrich,
^^ I like that lineup very much You need to add Cedrick Ceballos to the backups though as well as Byron Scott, my 3 point king!
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting NickVanExel:</div><div class="quote_post">C-Shaq PF-Elden Campbell SF- Eddie Jones SG-Kobe PG-Nick Van Exel hmm? 1997...</div> hehehe that's crazy talk, elden campbell I'd say Abdul-Jabar, Wilt, Worthy, Kobe, Magic. Shaq off the bench. I've never seen Jerry West play and judging by the amount of times he's in others' all-star laker lineup I'm kind of curious now.
^^^ He's not the shadow that is the NBA Logo for nothing. He was Mr clutch way before Larry Bird, Michael Jordan, Reggie Miller and Kobe Bryant.
C- Shaq (MDE) F- Kareem (unstoppable skyhook) F- Baylor (legend back in the day) G- West (likely to be replaced by Kobe) G- Magic (best pg ever) Bench: C- Wilt (wasn't with Lakers in prime years) F- Worthy (huge member of Showtime era) F- Cooper (defensive wiz) G- Kobe (once he wins a title/MVP, he will move up) G- Goodrich (scoring star) IR: Scott, Wilkes, A.C. Green Dang! That is a great team!
PG- Magic Johnson SG- Kobe Bryant SF- James Worthy PF- Wilt Chamberlin C- Shaquille O' Neal Bench C- Kareem Abdul Jabar SF- Elgin Baylor PG- Jerry West SF- Michael Cooper
PG: Jerry West SG: Kobe Bryant SF: Magic Johnson PF: Wilt Chamberlain C: Shaquille O' Neal Kareem Abdul Jabar Elgin Baylor James Worthy Michael Cooper
My 2 cents: Starters: C- Chamberlain PF - Abdul-Jabbar SF - Baylor SG - West PG - Johnson Bench: C - O'Neal PF - Mikan SF - Worthy SG - Bryant SG - Goodrich IR - Wilkes, Cooper
