I think you don?t see too many 23?s because of an almost unofficially retired league status.  You need a big ego and some special talent to try and live up to MJ. 

33 will always be a favorite for me.  Steve Kuberski and whatnot?

Yup

I was strugglin for bigs and PGs with #23.

I came up with Camby.

So

G: MJ
F: LeBron
C: Camby

Jason Richardson was the next guy I thought of. Mitch Richmond wore #23 in GSW early in his career but he wore #2 in Sacramento for the majority of his career so I won't include him.

Oh, Anthony Davis was mentioned earlier. #23 in New Orleans.

G: MJ
G: Jason Richardson
F: LeBron
F: A Davis
C: M Camby

Not a bad team. LeBron can play point forward. Two dynamic defensive big men.

  • What a Pub Should Be
88

I?m halfway there!

Hopefully I can live to 88 and bust out my Queta jersey.

Eric Lindros, right?  Pasta.  And Antoine for a bit.  Gotta be some solid WRs?

Big time.  Michael Irvin, Marvin Harrison, Tony Gonzalez to name a few.

The #13 could be interesting.

We have Wilt Chamberlain, Steve Nash and James Harden. Three MVPs.

I am struggling to think of some forwards to put alongside them. I only came up with Big Dog Glenn Robinson and present day Jerami Grant.

G: Nash
G: Harden
F: G Robinson
F: Jerami Grant
C: Wilt

Lynn Swann immediately popped into my head.
Yup

A sneaky fun #31

Not up there with the top numbers but a fun team.

How about Bam Adebayo and and Paul George as forwards?
