Poll for NBA fans

[arash123]

man its the 96 draft for sure!!!!

you got kobe, ray allen, steve nash, allen iverson, derek fisher

but ill choose mj and hakeem any day over carmelo and lebron

[persianbruin]

whats interesting about the 03 draft is that if they wanted to, the 2004 champion pistons could have added any of those next 3 guys to that already strong team! I know even just the thought of it makes mojo come in his shorts!

[Türküm]

no I didn't. I said 1-5. If I wanted to go beyond 1-5, then 1996 would have beat them all

lol, no no...84>96

[persianbruin]

lol, no no...84>96

in terms of overall quality I dont think thats even up for dscussion. Never had someoen in real life try to cinvince me otherwise. 96 was just too too deep.

I even had to try to convince nypimp that 96 was not better than 84, 1-5! he thought even without counting nash, Kobe, J oneil, peja stojakovic 96 was still better than 84!! The 84 outside of 4 players was nothing really where 96 had about 10 allstars to 84's 7 allstars and both groups had 3 people winning MVP

ray allen will be a hall of famer so thats 4, and the productivity of walker, camby, shareef, marbury, derek fisher, and jermaine oneal in their primes are far greater than the 3 guys u mentioned (even tho robertson was great)

[MoJo23]

2003:
1 James, LeBron
2 Miličić, Darko
3 Anthony, Carmelo
4 Bosh, Chris
5 Wade, Dwyane

Worst day in the history of Detroit Pistons franchise.

just because you weren't around to see the productivity of the '84 class doesn't mean the 96 class surpasses it...
and Ray Allen is a fringe HOF'er

[persianbruin]

lol! there have been many crap drafts among the very crappy ones is the kandi man and kwame brown draft and among the good ones the 99 draft:

1) elton brand
2) stevie franchise
3) The baron of westwood davis
4) candyholic odom

but none will equal the 1996 in terms of the entire first round!

1 Iverson, Allen
2 Camby, Marcus
3 Abdur-Rahim, Shareef
4 Marbury, Stephon
5 Allen, Ray
6 Walker, Antoine
7 Wright, Lorenzen
8 Kittles, Kerry
9 Walker, Samaki
10 Dampier, Erick
11 Fuller, Todd
12 Potapenko, Vitaly
13 Bryant, Kobe
14 Stojaković, Peja
15 Nash, Steve
16 Delk, Tony
17 O'Neal, Jermaine
18 Wallace, John
19 McCarty, Walter
20 Ilgauskas, Zydrunas
21 Jones, Dontae
22 Rogers, Roy
23 Rentzias, Efthimios
24 Fisher, Derek26 Williams, Jerome
27 Evans, Brian
28 Lauderdale, Priest
29 Knight, Travis

guys in bold and underline have been allstars and the guys with underline were starters with serious amount of contribution to their teams for years. Not to mention that draft also had 3 MVPs

I dont know! This draft looks waay deeper than the 84 draft. outside of those 4 mentioned, the draft is pretty weak. But players from this draft contributed a lot more as a "whole" again we are not talking top 4 players only. WE are talking the entire draft

[the-ali]

Jordan is basketball. the only player that will ever come close to Jordan is Kobe and even he is miles away.

Jordan > The World.

good argument but kobe, nash, allen, and iverson are FOR SURE going into the HOF. in no way is ray allen even a fringe.

kevin willis had a few good years as did thorpe and robertson....
but marbury in his prime was as good as iverson, derek fisher has been a stud his entire career, and peja stojakavic has been a very good player as well.

yeah but we are talking drafts not individual players.

Ray allen is

1)2nd in the alltime 3 point FG made and he will pass my fellow bruin Reggie miller before its all said and done to take over the #1 spot.

2) He is currently 32nd in the alltime scorers list and he will easily make it to the top 20 before his career is over.

3) he has also won a championship as a main player on the team. I am not talking Rober Horry Steve Kerr type contribution. I am talking star player contribution

he is DEF a HOF player
