Pop and Kerr just having basically their whole finals teams is funny

[@dvs620]

The Spurs could also switch Manu for Gervin. If he took this one step further and had a 6th man, he could alleviate a logjam without creating positions (MJ’s not a PG, that’s a cop out/Ewing isn’t a PF). This would make a Spurs team of the one he mentioned, plus the Iceman. That’s a damn good team. Would like to see the other team’s fans chime in.

In his first year coaching in the ABA, Larry Brown had a player who was born four years before the end of WWII, in his final year with Charlotte, he coached DJ Augustin Imagine the similar factoids we’ll have once Pop retires

[@burgerking5256]

He also coached Garrett Temple on that 2011 Bobcats team - Temple is still playing today for the Pelicans. Since Joe Caldwell (oldest player on Brown's first team) was born in 1941, technically Brown has been coaching players from before the NBA was created to the current day - a span of about 82 years.

Pau would make a good back up Center for Shaq. He played Power Foward to accomodate other players. His brother at international level, Bynum and Howard at Lakers then it stuck. But he also played Center at Lakers.

[@gm2407]

Cant believe the amount of players who are capable of of playing SF and PF in his teams and the amount of combo guards. You really need good fundamentals in all aspects of the game to thrive in the triangle outside and inside.

[@madezio2]

The video was good, but i have a small complaint: the fun part of making a starting 5 instead of a top 5 players is to compare each player in their own position. If you get 2 great players that played in the same position (like Jordan and Kobe) putting one in another position that didn't really play goes against the idea.

[@alexandrevillela926]

Its the coaches best team selecting from their big roster, you couldn’t cut off either MJ or Kobe, I think is simple

[@michaelrobinson7534]

True, but in reality everyone is putting both Jordan and Kobe in a starting spot, so 1 has to play point guard anyway.

[@jwc7215]

If I'm making Phil's team, I'm switching Pau with Rodman. Low defense and rebounding really rounds that team out. Either way that team is practically untouchable, even if it would explode in the most destructive way possible.

[@tiptonbrett]

I would think K.C. Jones should be included. Just takes the Celtics teams he coached in the mid 80's and they would give any team a challenge. I think the best team on your list may be the Phil Jackson team. That team would have an elite level of athleticism combined with killer instincts. It would definitely be a hard team to beat. Maybe put them up in a hypothetical seven-game series against one of the Olympic dream teams:)

Not picking Rodman lost it for me. Best defender EVER, at the peak of his game and you take the soft option. Only saving grace being that Rodman on the other team would really annoy MJ, Kobe and Pippen.

[@heavylobster4339]

I'd rather have Pau spacing the floor for Shaq. That team is fine in terms of defense and rebounding, but from a modern perspective the floor spacing is a bit iffy since Jordan and Kobe primarily operate in the midrange. Pau being able to shoot from midrange and even 3 later in his career as opposed to Rodman being a non-shooter does make a difference offensively. And are people really still spreading BS about Pau being soft?

[@AAGEnzee]

I agreed with most of his picks except that Pau over Rodman. I think Rodman is HANDS DOWN the pick over Pau Gasol. If Rodman scored 15-20pts a game, people would almost unanimously agree he's the greatest forward to ever play the game. His rebounding, defense and stamina are so far beyond almost anyone else ever, but because he didn't score he gets overlooked and dismissed. That starting 5 has enough scoring and passers, you need someone that can D up basically anyone on the opposing team and grabs you 15+ boards. Pau would be like Bosh on the Lebron heat, where he no longer looks as impressive as he did before, whereas Rodman wouldn't step on anybody's toes on offense. Between Jordan, Kobe and Shaq, you got enough people that need the ball. Pippen too, but he's a team player and a world class defender, so he'll contribute even if he's not getting the ball. If you took it a step further and included the bench, throw in some Steve Kerr/Ron Harpers to be a legit catch and shoot 3pt threat so you space the floor out better, then sit 1 or 2 of jordan/kobe/pippen early so they come back in against enemy bench lineups. That team isn't losing to hardly anyone. When your 'bench/small ball' lineup is like.. Kobe, Kerr, Harper, Pippen... shiiiit.

[@RedAbalde]

The Phil Jackson line is super strong. The only downside of this lineup is their ego.

[@mrrodriguezHLP]

Although my defense was insane cause Rodman could switch to anybody and shut them down. But I’m a game where Rodman wouldn’t have to plus gasol wasn’t a defense chump he just wasn’t nearly as athletic I can only imagine it’s worse in real life.
