They didn't exactly light it up in the playoffs compared to other great teams. They lost to Delly twice in the finals.Max. wrote:I knew the Warriors would get slept on. There's no fucking way that team isn't a top 8 team. Nope. List is fucked.

'85 Lakers.
The '99 Spurs should be an option at this point.

Kinda funny that the GOAT and his 11 title teams (probably 12 if not injured in the 57 finals) in 13 years is not represented, but Wilt, who went 1-7 against him, will get the nod.

I don't think it's inconceivable to say Russell is the superior player but Wilt played on the best team of that era. That's not even to say I agree with that, but I'm not sure it's egregious.vcsgrizzfan wrote:Kinda funny that the GOAT and his 11 title teams (probably 12 if not injured in the 57 finals) in 13 years is not represented, but Wilt, who went 1-7 against him, will get the nod.

No one has made a push for a specific Cs team yet.

It's not egregious at all. It's extremely ironic though, and possibly a little sign of disrespect for Russell. Russell cared when it really mattered to care. Like game 7 of the 62 finals when he went for 30 points and 40 boards. First time of many he broke Laker hearts.PhutureDynasty wrote:I don't think it's inconceivable to say Russell is the superior player but Wilt played on the best team of that era.

No and no. Russell homer. J/K. You do have a point. Should a Russell lead team be higher?vcsgrizzfan wrote:It's not egregious at all.

It was 58 mang and I was the one who suggested the Russell teams that need to be included.vcsgrizzfan wrote:Kinda funny that the GOAT and his 11 title teams (probably 12 if not injured in the 57 finals) in 13 years is not represented, but Wilt, who went 1-7 against him, will get the nod.

That 1 win by Wilt's 76ers is pretty freaking impressive though.vcsgrizzfan wrote:Kinda funny that the GOAT and his 11 title teams (probably 12 if not injured in the 57 finals) in 13 years is not represented, but Wilt, who went 1-7 against him, will get the nod.

How did the board get Number 1 so wrong?

Re: 2017 AG Greatest NBA Teams of All-Time #8
Maybe so but solely on team success (68-13 regular season, 11-4 postseason), that team was damn impressive. Winning at an 84% clip was unheard of at that time.vcsgrizzfan wrote:In all context, was it really?

That's not a knock on Russell's Celtics at all. It's simply an example of a talented team finding lightening in a bottle...if just for one season.

Re: 2017 AG Greatest NBA Teams of All-Time #8
Yo Grizz the fact that you haven't even voted for one of those Celtics teams yet should answer your question. There is not one single season team that stands out. Make the case for one.

Re: 2017 AG Greatest NBA Teams of All-Time #8
Even though they won't for a while I'm going with the 97 Bulls. 69 wins, the GOAT, another top 15-25 player of all time, Rodman, kukoc. Defeated 3 56 plus win teams in the playoffs to the tune of a 15-4 playoff record.
Honestly the 92 and 97 Bulls, 00 and 01 Fakers, 13 Heat, 14 Spurs and 15 Warriors would absolutely rape the 67 sixers.
