Congrats Celtics

In honor of a hugely satisfying, and entertaining finals, I present the all-time Celtics (and Lakers) teams.



CELTICS
PG: Bob Cousy
SG: John Havlicek
SF: Larry Bird
PF: Dave Cowens
C: Bill Russell

Bench:

Sam Jones
Paul Pierce
Kevin McHale
Reggie Lewis
Dennis Johnson
Robert Parish
Cedrick Maxwell

Great team with an all -time bench.


LAKERS
PG: Magic Johnson
SG: Jerry West
SF: Kobe Bryant
PF: Wilt Chamberlin
C: Kareem Abdul-Jabbar

Bench:
Shaquille O'Neil
Elgin Baylor
James Worthy
Norm Nixon
Gail Goodrich
Nick Van Exel
Bob McAdoo

Best first team by far of any NBA team. Best all-time bench as well but but not by much.

and one more for the hell of it.

76ers
PG: Allen Iverson
SG: Julius Erving (Dr.J)
SF: Charles Barkley
PF: Moses Malone
C: Wilt Chamberlin

A better starting five than Boston. Hell, you could make the case that this is the best starting five of all time. I'll tell you what, you'd better hit your first shot against this team because they are getting every rebound. Not a great defensive starting team.

Bench:
Hal Greer
Andrew Toney
Maurice Cheeks
Dolph Schayes
Billy Cunningham
Bobby Jones
Darryl Dawkins

Weaker bench than the Celt and Lakers. Still, they got three Hall of Famers on the pine.
