    I hope you're referring to those players in their respective primes. Tracy and the Dream aren't what they used to be. :p

    wel, I saw how Dream was moving in his workouts with Howard. He still can be dominant in wnba. Not such as Erick Dampier in his prime but he can be play on quite solid level :grin:

    yeah, 6'9. but whenever he starts backing down, i'll just fall down and that would be a charge, since his shoulder would move directly into my face.
    He collects his flagrant, I sit down and relax and watch my teammates dominate!

    The amount of delusion this board has collectively about their basketball talents amazes me, I remember a poll in the hangout and it seemed like half the board thought they could AT LEAST play Div I college hoops.

    The worst player in the D-league could score on me at will and would steal the ball from me every time my teammates were dumb enough to pass it to me.

    I can live with that, but some of you guys, sheesh.

    ya, once I played with a basketball player in his university 1 on 1, and got dominated, we were similar size, both 6'1" ~180lbs and I was probably a better athlete since I had more hops and could dunk easily :p . He was just more skilled and his footwork was much better than I was. People just don't realize how intense the competition is at the NBA level. Every player in the league could win EASILY and it won't be even close. Unless you also play basketball at a professional level

    I'm almost 50, so I'm going back 25 years to when I was the best I ever was, which was akin to a really bad, slow, no jumping 6'1" Kurt Rambis.

    Magic
    Drexler
    Larry Nance
    Dream
    me

    We'd play a 2-2 zone with me running around. Need long, quick shotblockers who can cover ground, hence Dream and Nance.

    On offense, I'd camp out away from everyone and let Magic go to work.

    Earl Boykins would have a field day with 99.9% of this board, regardless of height or weight. Since I'm in the 0.1%, here's my list

    CP3
    Me
    LBJ
    Gasol
    Howard

    When I was in HS, we had a OK St. player show up at our gym (Jason Skaer) and play pick up games with us, we were a good team especially for our school's size (I was the last guy off the bench and played only against inferior competition or blowouts but the rest of guys on the team could play)

    His size, skill and speed were so another level that is was easily noticeable; 99.9999% of us thinking they could D up even the worst NBAer or not get totally raped anytime they touched the ball is seriously delusional.

    Now if you changed the question to read, Insert yourself into a lineup that can still win 50 games in the CBA (Chinese Basketball Assoc.) you might have a better argument.

    The only lineup I could join and win 50 games would be Space Jam's "Monstars". Their height, stolen skills and cartoon physics would overcome all weaknesses I have. Though they might eat me after the game

    For the alternative I could also join the Looney Tunes lineup with Jordan and the rest. This sounds more pleasant.
