    This is in response to John Wall claiming him and Bradley Beal are the best backcourt while Kyrie Irving and Dion Waiters made the same claim.

    What say you Clutchfans?

    Harden and Dragic/Rondo/Rubio/Bledsoe (when he's trade eligible).

    Soon.

    But really, it's the Splash Brothers.

    Others:

    Irving/Waiters
    Rondo/Bradley
    Paul/Redick
    Walker/Stephenson
    Williams/Johnson(maybe 3-5 years ago)
    Lowry/DeRozan
    Parker/G(reen)inobili
    Bledsoe/Dragic
    Lillard/Matthews
    Wall/Beal

    I'd say Curry/Thompson, but I'm surprised Bledsoe/Dragic isn't at least an option in the poll.

    Best backcourt is Dragic/Bledsoe/Thomas hands down, but best starting backcourt I would give to curry/thompson

    not the best but most underrated is lawson and aflalo

    best backcourts don't matter much. look at steve and cat. if your best two players are the PG and SG you wont get very far.

    just for fun what do you think about:

    wall = steve
    beal = cat
    pierce = wiz
    nene = mo
    gortat = cato

    maybe they'll end up trading wall/beal/gortat to okc for durant like when we traded steve/cat/cato for tmac. makes sense since there are rumors that durant would want to go back and play for his hometown.

    maybe this year wall will miss a lot of games with migranes, the wizards will miss the playoffs, and win the lottery from the 7th spot in order to draft jahil okafor. a year later they S&T for durant. rockets part 2.

    Right now it's Curry/Thompson but Wall/Beal have room to grow still

    Curry/Thompson, but they probably won't amount to much considering the money they have tied up in their front court.

    Bledsoe/Dragic needs to be an option.
