This list should come with minimum time played together.
Laker duos should take up about 20 spots |

Pau and Kobe (who aren’t on the list) should definitely rank higher than James and Davis. You can’t tell me that James/Davis half a season is better than back-to-back titles and three consecutive final appearances. |

I fully agree.

How about the best duo in sports history? Kerri Walsh and Mary Decker.

Some of the Duo's had a third or even fourth teammate who are also stars. But in virtually all these pairings I think we can agree who the top two players on the team were.
So I find this an unobjectionable space filler, although it would have been more interesting if it had to find the criteria of how it rank the Duo's |

Agree, true duos to me are the ones where you have a 1A and 1B, or atleast a real 1 and 2, but not a 'great' 3, so like these:
Kobe-Pau
Wade-Shaq
Kobe-Shaq
Jordan-Pippen
Stockton-Malone
Johnson-Barkley
etc.
Id just exclude Green from your list, hes a role player to me

| Kobe and Shaq are the true duo and best duo ever. They won 3 consecutive titles together. Michael and Pippen have other stars around. |

They really dont.
And i do think Shaq-Kobe are the better duo, because Pippen is the by far 'worst' player here
