Thread: Your Favorite Basketball Players Ever

So the other thread about who is the best basketball player got me thinking, who are your favorite basketball players ever? This could have everything or nothing to do with stats and titles. Who did you always enjoy watching play or always admire? Set your own criteria... just fill out a roster.

Mine:

G - Tiny Archibald
G - Fred Brown
F - Dr. J
F - Charles Barkley
C - Bill Laimbeer

Oh, I love Ray Allen. Not an all around player, but just when you try and pigeonhole him as a 3 point shooter he'll dunk all over your face.

I like Bird, Iverson, and Allen too.

If not for injuries, Hardaway would have had a great statistical carrer.

Very true, but you have a lotta guards on that team... hopefully you don't have to worry about rebounds too much.

Allen played with the Bucks the first half of his career and smooth is an understatement.
