Title: Your Ideal Starting Five In SSBA Post by: KingsGM-old on January 02, 2006, 09:59:33 AM If you could choose your starting five and pick any five players in the league, who would it be?
I'd go with; PG Shaun Livingston SG Tracy Mcgrady SF Shawn Marion PF Tim Duncan C Emeka Okafor Title: Your Ideal Starting Five In SSBA Post by: RaptorsGM on January 02, 2006, 10:23:03 AM I don't see why anyone wouldn't have Yao on their team.
Yao Emeka Dirk Petit Hinrich Title: Your Ideal Starting Five In SSBA Post by: CelticsGM on January 02, 2006, 10:24:29 AM I'd take Dirk for TD, just so that starting five can win a title too ...
Title: Your Ideal Starting Five In SSBA Post by: NetsGM on January 02, 2006, 11:02:50 AM Yao
Emeka Marion Pettit Livingston Emeka over Dirk mainly for defense and rebounding. Dirk's a far superior offensive player, and provides a nice inside/outside combo. But with Marion, Yao and Pettit, I need someone who can be effective even when plays aren't being run for him. That's also why I chose Livingston over some higher scoring pg's. Even when he's not scoring he has an A assists and an A- defense Title: Your Ideal Starting Five In SSBA Post by: MavsGM on January 02, 2006, 01:30:21 PM Quote from: RaptorsGM I don't see why anyone wouldn't have Yao on their team. Yao Emeka Dirk Petit Hinrich Emeka and Dirk are out of position. If I can pick my starting five, I would go with Yao, Duncan, Okafor, Marion, and KG at point. :D Title: Your Ideal Starting Five In SSBA Post by: RaptorsGM on January 02, 2006, 02:01:31 PM Quote from: MavsGM Quote from: RaptorsGM I don't see why anyone wouldn't have Yao on their team.

Title: Your Ideal Starting Five In SSBA Post by: HornetsGM on January 02, 2006, 02:25:43 PM Yao
TD Marion Pettit Hinrich I think I might have picked TD just because of his history against me. I think it's a tossup between Hinrich and Livingston, and Hinrich's experience made me pick him. Title: Your Ideal Starting Five In SSBA Post by: BlazersGM on January 02, 2006, 04:15:23 PM I'll go with
PG Shaun Livingstone SG Garett Pettit SF Shawn Marion PF Emeka Okafor C Yao Ming Title: Your Ideal Starting Five In SSBA Post by: BlazersGM on January 02, 2006, 04:16:28 PM Quote from: NetsGM Yao Emeka Marion Pettit Livingston Can you fix my roster page, only half appears, thanks.

Title: Your Ideal Starting Five In SSBA Post by: SonicsGM on January 02, 2006, 05:14:33 PM C - Yao
PF - Dirk Nowitzki SF - Shawn Marion SG - Garrett Pettitt PG - Nicklaus English Let that starting five run all day long, and you'll be just fine. Title: Your Ideal Starting Five In SSBA Post by: KingsGM-old on January 02, 2006, 07:39:04 PM Quote from: RaptorsGM I don't see why anyone wouldn't have Yao on their team. Yao Emeka Dirk Petit Hinrich I wouldn't want 4 30+ scorers on my team. Just too much stars and offenive power, and only 1 ball. Duncan & Okafor would be match made in heaven. A perfect frontcourt. I wouldn't want anything else.

In a team like that, you don't need your pg to score. All you need is a passing machine who plays defense, and Livingston is just that. Title: Your Ideal Starting Five In SSBA Post by: GoldenStateGM on January 03, 2006, 12:11:30 AM Well, the top starting 5 in my opinion would be
Yao (as the 1st option) Emeka (his defense and rebounding make him the only choice) Marion (defense and rebounding, although Dirk and Lebron could slide in the spot easily, imo) Pettit (Only 1 weakness (to's), and it would go away as a 2nd or 3rd option) Hinrich (over Livingston because of his higher shooting percentages, 2nd or 3rd option) Title: Your Ideal Starting Five In SSBA Post by: RaptorsGM on January 03, 2006, 12:44:09 AM Quote from: KingsGM Quote from: RaptorsGM I don't see why anyone wouldn't have Yao on their team.

I wouldn't want anything else. Right. Duncan over Yao. Notice how so many people agree with you. Title: Your Ideal Starting Five In SSBA Post by: SixersGM on January 03, 2006, 01:10:22 AM Top 5:
Yao TD Marion Petit Livingston I believe that all these 5 guys would be hall of famers once they retire. Title: Your Ideal Starting Five In SSBA Post by: NetsGM on January 03, 2006, 08:24:19 AM Quote Right. Duncan over Yao. Notice how so many people agree with you. That does not mean he is wrong. TD: 30.4 ppg, 13.3 rpg, 3.5 apg, 3.1 bpg, 48.6% Yao: 33.9 ppg, 13.1 rpg, 2.3 apg, 3.2 bpg, 52.2% TD is very capable. The argument could be made that if TD was playing with Leocadia Garcia and Darius Perry in his starting lineup he'd be averaging 33.9 ppg as well. Title: Your Ideal Starting Five In SSBA Post by: GoldenStateGM on January 03, 2006, 08:27:15 AM TD is capable... But Yao is also leading the league in FG%, while at the same time leading in scoring. He is also a better free throw shooter then Duncan.
That is why you pick Yao over Duncan. Title: Your Ideal Starting Five In SSBA Post by: RaptorsGM on January 03, 2006, 10:37:54 AM Yao has got 35 ppg with Hoffa in the lineup. And Yao is playing with 3 other 13ppg players.
So after Yao, the other top 3 players average 40.8ppg. After TD, the other top 3 averaged 44.2. Not that big of a difference. Plus TD plays with Tskalidis in his lineup. Title: Your Ideal Starting Five In SSBA Post by: MagicGM on January 04, 2006, 05:52:27 AM also, people are used to see/play TD at the PF, IMO.
