These three should be included:
Tremont Waters
DeWayne "the Astronaut" Scales
John Williams

I don't think you could find a more exciting and productive backcourt anywhere. Maravich has the highest season scoring average...ever...and Jackson "only" averaged 29 ppg.
I'm not old enough to have seen Marvich play in person. But still today, for me, no one was more exciting to watch than Jackson

Gotta pass on Glen Davis for numerous reasons.

There is no question about your starting five. Ben Simmons deserves a spot on this team. Naz Reid was good but there are other more deserving forwards like John Williams, Tasmin Mitchell, Ricky Blanton and Dewyane Scales. Tremont Waters, Eddie Palubinskas, Ronnie Henderson, Kenny Higgs and Derrick Taylor merit strong consideration in the backcourt.
I suggest expending to a 15 man roster, drop Naz and add Simmons, Waters and John Williams. Tyrus had a great one year so I might even consider Blanton or Taz due to their outstanding four year careers.
Damn, we need a 20 man roster!

The inevitable a-hole makes his appearance, thinking he is so fricking original , taking a shite on a young man who busted his arse for LSU and has a Final Four ring. Shame on you, fricking a-hole.

Garrett Temple needs to be on that team. Was in the nba for over a decade and confident he would lock down any guard.
And where is Tyrus Thomas? No one is scoring on Tyrus and Shaq. It would be unfair.

Gimme Tre Waters over Cam Thomas all day every day.
Posted on 2/10/26 at 2:35 pm to EPORE
Waters nowhere near top 10.
Posted on 2/10/26 at 2:41 pm to EPORE
Marcus Thornton was that dude. In college when we played NBA 2K, I always played with Kings. Had my whole house hating him haha

Fair enough, everyone has an opinion, but there has been no other all around statistical season like he had, and its not fair to judge him harshly based upon the ultimate team finish.
