5 favorite basketball rosters of all time

[SShorefan 4.0]

Yesterday's Hall of Fame announcement spurred the thought process of the following list.

My 5 favorite basketball single season team rosters of all time

#5.  1993 Phoenix Suns
With Barkley, Ainge, Chambers, Kevin Smith & Dan Majerle.  This team was a ton of fun to follow all year long.

#4.  2007 Boston Celtics
Ray Allen, KG, Pierce, Posey, Rondo & Doc.  No comments needed.

#3.  1986 Boston Celtics
Larry, Kevin, DJ, Danny, Robert, Walton.  Best NBA team ever in my mind.  DJ belongs in the Hall of Fame and would give this team 5 in the Hall.

#2.  1992 Olympic Dream Team
Larry, Magic, Charles, Clyde, Stockton, et al.  Best team ever. I loved this team.  10 Hall of Famers (only Mullen and Laetner not making it - yet)

#1.  1984 Boston Celtics
Bird, Mchale, DJ, Henderson, Ainge, Maxwell, ML Carr, Chief.  Greatest NBA finals ever.


I know, it may be blasphemous to have non-Celtic teams listed, especially over the 81 team, but it's just my opinion.

I just realized that 4 of my five favorite teams are associated with Danny Ainge.  That's very odd.

I didn't know Larry was on that team 
TP for the U2 slip.
