Damaramu 0 Report post Posted May 24, 2004 Ok here's a what if scenario. Let's say you were able to take on the abilities and skills of two athletes and then go and play the sport they play. ANY sport. Who would they be and what would you do? Two athletes who's abilities would make you the greatest ever! I don't know if I'd rather play basketball, football, or baseball. If it were basketball I'd combine Michael Jordan and Larry Bird. Then I'd be able to fly and shoot the ball like nobodies business. I'd go take the Celtics back to prominence to. If it were baseball......hmm.......I'd combine the pitching of Nolan Ryan and the hitting and speed of Ken Griffey Jr. in his prime. Then I'd have to go play in the NL so that I could pitch and hit...... If it were football......I'd combine Joe Montana and John Elway. Oh the comebacks I'd engineer at QB............for the Eagles of course. So how about you guys? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest MikeSC Report post Posted May 24, 2004 Magic and Bird in basketball. Eavirry Birson would be the greatest of all time. I'd say Jon Koncak and George Muresan. Mathematically, if you multply two negatives, it equals a positive. Can you name two more negative talents than those two? Heck, combined, they'd probably own Wilt. -=Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nl5xsk1 0 Report post Posted May 24, 2004 I'd combine Bobby Orr and Gordie Howe ... maybe the quickness & puckhandling of Orr with the size and strength of Howe. Take the best of both their scoring touches, rather than just pick one or the other. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

True, he put up great numbers, but anyone that watched him play can tell you that he was a INCREDIBLE, probably best off the ball defender in the last 20 years, but as a on the ball defender, he was rather sad. His gambling that worked off the ball would let guys like Petrovic, Price, Dumars...hell most guards he lined up against to put up great numbers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perfect Small Forward: All-around skills of Scottie Pippen in his prime, combined with Kevin Garnett's athleticism and fire. Perfect Power Forward: Rebounding and defense of Dennis Rodman, combined with offensive game of Tim Duncan. Perfect Center: Size and skills of Shaq, shooting touch of Dirk Nowitski.
