What David Robinson has NEVER played anybody as athletic as Dwight. David Robinson wasn't half the athlete Dwight is.

Dwight has never played against anybody as athletic as D-Rob. While D-Rob has played against Shaq, Hakeem, Willis, Ewing, Daugherty, Vlade, all who would be gawds in today's NBA

The 08 team had Boozer on it though

:scusthov:

I mean really, does anything more need to be said? :scusthov: at y'all for even debating this.

What does that have to do with being quicker off the floor? David Robinson was 7'1, do you know how many blocks you can trip over being 7'1?

Seriously can mods come up with an option to ban certain posters from writing about ceratain topics? This kid is lost for real.

2008 squad would beat 1992. With a healthy Wade and Kobe in his prime.
No they wouldn't have. Kobe in his prime is a notch or better below Mike in his prime. More importantly though, that Redeem Team only had one true big man in Howard. No disrespect to Bosh and Boozer, but they're not guys that dominate the paint. Not only did the Dream Team have Ewing and Robinson, they also had Barkley and Malone. Howard gets in foul trouble an the Redeem Team gets murdered on the inside. They would've lost by 15-20 under nba rules.

I'm still wondering how this thread got 5 pages without mentioning Karl Malone. That big nikka would be eating up love and blake everytime down the court too.

What makes this argument so damn stupid is that the 2012 team would be facing most of the greatest players in the history of the league in their prime. MJ, Pip and the Admiral along with 2 of us could make the game against the 2012 team competitive. The entire roster were considered hall of famers at the time they were chosen. Only Bron, Kobe and maybe Durant hold that esteem on the '12 team. It's stupid that this is even debated.


edit: Could you IMAGINE Harden flopping against Jordan??? MJ would roast that nikka for a quick 30 by halftime just for insulting him like that
:laff:

Yeah but he is talking not before the tournament. He's talking about making the team which is months before. CP3 wouldn't have made the team Over Stockton. He wouldve made it as a replacement.

And of the 3 mentioned players only LeBron would start. KD and Kobe coming off the bench.
:what::what:
Chris Paul is easily better than Stockton. EASILY
