Kobe… $5
Harris … $1
With two bucks to spare for a cup of coffee at Starbucks |
Ohh nice. =). If we assume Laker primes, which I think we do, that's a nice team. |
I think this is the only real Laker team you could make up under the rules, and in reality Kobe was in his first or second year and not the GOAT-level player of later. But, hey, it was still was still a great team. And you could sub in Eddie Jones and make this a real team for like $12! |

Sure and that's fine, but no need to add the bench players in your analysis or the fact that it's a 82 game season and you have more players. That's just not the challenge. If the challenge were assemble the best team to play a season then everyone should start picking up the $1 and $2 guys for depth. You're playing a different game.
Also your team would get crushed by a Magic-Kobe backcourt. Fisher would get exposed on every single play. Add in Wilt in the middle and you're done. |
Yes, we would get crushed because your five guys won't get tired as my nine guys rotate in and out. 
Look, if you are going to play the "my team will beat your team" game, then you cannot ignore the fact that your five guys will fatigue in every game of a given series with no opportunity to rest. If you choose to ignore basic science, then there is no point in saying whose team would outplay the other.
Like it or not, I have nine guys for the "my team will beat your team" game, a proven system in the triangle and a superior coach to execute it with players that have proven they can win within that particular system. We'll be fine. |
Again this challenge is about a lineup not a team. Do you even know the difference? This is just ridiculous know. Get your head out of your ass for God's sake. |
Then you've obviously dropped your earlier stupid contention that your team will "crush" someone else's team. If this is just a cut and paste exercise of five guys for no competitive purpose, there isn't anything more for you to whine about. |

So with that said, screw the clown harping about rules not mentioned on the website. Without breaking anything the site says it allows or does not allow, my final team:
Coach: Sharman
PG: Magic
SG: Kobe
SF: Odom
PF: Gasol
Center: D12
Bench: Morrison, Knight, Kwame and Smush |

Thought when I used the word team in the second part of my first response you would notice I was referring to a lineup since I just typed a small paragraph saying the bench is not part of the challenge. This is just beyond ridiculous now, English 101, and I'm not even the only one calling you out. |

Actually rules are mentioned in the article posted in the OP. Lineup and coach. One PG, one SG, one SF, one PF, one C, and a coach. Truly the most ignorant poster I have ever seen. |

Yah, I don't get it. What would be the point of doing this exercise, if you can just do whatever you feel like doing? Isn't the point to compare teams, constructed under the same restrictions?
I've even seen people spend more than $18. The heck is going on around here? |
Don't be a hypocrite.

I was doing that as an example of the absurdity. Context is your friend!
|
this was your first lineup you posted. All the other lineups you posted were examples. If you are going to call out people for not following the rules, you should at least follow it. Jeez. |
Did you read my post? I said for $18, you cannot build an actual Laker lineup, let alone an all-star one.
I then built an actual Lakers squad, showing it exceeds $18.
Does context actually escape you that easily? Cmon, this is 101 type stuff. |
Did you see where I highlighted? This is 101 basic stuff. You were complaining about people using more than $18. What is the point of doing that since there's "no point" right? The challenge is $18. You can actually build a squad with it. Maybe you can't build a squad the way you wanted, but it's a challenge right? Cmon yourself, bro. |

Putting some stats on this game. Stats are from the best single year based on PER (for lack of a better choice) for the player in a Laker uniform while playing a majority of the games in a season. Coaching based on overall record coaching the Lakers + championships.
Obviously, you can't add up all the stats when making a team, as there are only so many touches you can have and each player likely had a high usage during their "best" year.
PG
5 Magic Johnson (1986-87) - 27.0 PER, 23.9 ppg, 52.2% fg, 20.5% 3p, 84.8% ft, 6.3 rpg, 12.2 apg, 1.7 spg, 0.5 bpg
4 Jerry West (1964-65) - 25.0 PER, 31.0 ppg, 49.7% fg, 82.1% ft, 6.0 rpg, 4.9 apg

2 Nick Van Excel (1997-98) - 17.8 PER, 13.8 ppg, 41.9% fg, 38.9% 3p, 79.1% ft, 3.0 rpg, 6.9 apg, 1.0 spg, 0.1 bpg
1 Norm Nixon (1978-79) - 18.2 PER, 17.1 ppg, 52.2% fg, 77.5% ft, 2.8 rpg, 9.0 rpg, 2.5 spg, 0.2 bpg
SG
5 Kobe Bryant (2005-06) - 28.0 PER, 35.4 ppg, 45.0% fg, 34.7% 3p, 85.0% ft, 5.3 rpg, 4.5 apg, 1.8 spg, 0.4 bpg

My team would be:
PG Magic Johnson (5)
SG Kobe Bryant (5)
SF Cedric Ceballos (1)
PF Lamar Odom (1)
C Shaquille O'Neal (4)
Coach Bill Sharman (2)
Total Points: 18
At first I went with Wilt since he was a statistical monster. But Wilt's Laker years were definitely on the downside of his career. Prime Shaq on the other hand, was unstoppable as a Laker (when healthy).
Thought briefly about Baylor, but while putting up monster numbers did so on monster usage. The years Baylor was putting up 30+ points, he was also shooting the ball 30 times per game at a pretty low FG%.
Magic + Kobe would be an all-time great guard lineup not just from the Lakers but for all-NBA all-time.
Best 1 point values (and filler) were Lamar Odom and Cedric Ceballos, imo. Odom, while constantly being the enigma that he was, finally put up a 6th man of year season, his last with the Lakers. And while generally I wouldn't say the water-skier Cedric should be anywhere near an all-time Laker team, but he put up good hustle usage and comes cheap in this game. Ceballos in 95-96 had a ORtg of 117 and DRtg of 107.
Bill Sharman coached the 71-72 Lakers that went 69-13 winning the NBA championship and put up that NBA record 33 game winning streak. Sharman was a good value and has the championship pedigree over Del Harris and not be as expensive as a Jackson or Riley. |

Pretty on point there and no one is played out of position so it doesn't 'break the game'. Once more  |

Even at the end of his career, Wilt was dominant. He stopped shooting as much so his scoring average was down, but even so in his four full seasons as a Laker:
-- He set the NBA record for highest FG percentage in a season
-- He led the league in rebounding four out of four years
-- He averaged about 17-19-4 |

Cedric Ceballos and Lamar Odom actually work well because, they're off-the-ball players. Ceballos was a stud in transition and Magic would play him as a wide receiver. Heavily underrated finisher. Perfect role player.

Starting my lineup I would definitely want to start off with kobe,shaq, and phil because it's proven to work and be dominate. So that's $14 right there.
Then I would want odom who is cheap and has proven to be a successful third option in the triangle. Now it's $15.
Here's where it gets tricky filling out pg and sf. Fisher would be the ideal fit but he's too expensive and my team hits $18 dollars without a sf.
at small forward a guy like rice would work cause he can space the floor but that would leave me with norm Nixon at pg who I think would not fit well.
Final conclusion
Nve 2
Kobe 5
Ceballos 1
Odom 1
Shaq 4
Phil 5
$18 |

Assuming all of these people are in their primes...
PG: Magic Johnson - $5
SG: Michael Cooper - $3
SF: Glen Rice - $2
PF: Lamar Odom - $1
C: Wilt Chamberlain - $3
Coach: Pat Riley - $4
Showtime speed, finesses, and leadership from Magic.
Solid/great shooters to dish it to in Rice, Odom, and Cooper.
Alley-oops galore to Odom and Wilt.
Rebounding craziness with Odom and Wilt.
Every single player could put the ball on the floor and lead a fast break. |
