    I have hard believing anyone including Morey would pick someone other than Magic at the point. To me, Magic was the best basketball player to ever play the game. He made Kareem play second fiddle and won 5 championships in a shortened career.

    Shaq knows Hakeem is the real deal.

    Soft, baby.

    My All-Time Starting 5:

    PG - Magic
    SG - Jordan
    SF - Bird
    PF - Hakeem
    C - Kareem

    Yes, I put Hakeem out of position, I know. But I believe both of these guys belong in the Starting 5 of all time.
    Sorry not sorry, but the Dream Shake and Sky Hook together is just flat out amazing.

    Anyone picking Bird over LeBron at the 3 needs to stop watching basketball. Bird was great......maybe #2 or #3 all-time (for the small forward position)........but come on. Really? Over LeBron?

    Shaq had his ugly baby hook. I guess he rebelled against his step father and never learned the sky hook...

    All time 5 I'd pit Hakeem at the 4 shaq at the 5... Barkley can be the commentator.

    If this discussion does not include Wilt it means nothing.

    I thought Mauri's starting 5 would consist of good role players and 2nd rounders.
