    Do you think that Shaq and Kobe has been the best for Guard-Centrer combination? if not, then who else?

    and one more...
    If we compare our T-mac and Yao combination to that best combination what's the grade that you can give?(when you put 100 on the best combination)

    Yeah, Shaq-Kobe was probably the most explosive and best offensive G-C duo, but I'd take Kareem-Magic too. It's a more well-rounded combination.

    it could've been hakeem/jordan and their 12 consecutive titles but alas things didn't work out that way.

    WHile listed as a small forward, Dr. J was a player in the mold of Jordan and Kobe, a swingman. I think he is perfectly apropriate as a small in a small-big pairing. Charles Barkley also played SF for a while with him I believe, making him at least temporarily the SG.

    Jerry West - Wilt Chamberlain(not at his prime, but still grabbing 15+ rebounds a game)

    Cousy - Russell, of course.

    That's what I always say about Serge Zwikker and Rodrick Rhodes.

    Soon, very soon, we'll all be saying McGrady-Yao.

    Until then, I'd have to give the edge to Sam Jones-Bill Russell. They've got 10 Championship rings to prove it worked out pretty well. Actually, 9 of those came after Jones became a starter.

    The best combo ever would have to be Kareem- Magic or Cousy-Russell.
    However, my pick based on Rox bias would be Olajuwon/ Drexler. I miss those guys!
