A Competitive Edge

So thinking back to day 1 of the NBA just think of all the talented players that have came through.  Magic, Kareem, Wilt, Bird, Isiah Thomas, Kobe, Jordan, Stockton, both Malone’s, Ewing, Drexler, Barkley, Wilkins and so much more…and thats just a small sample.  Now try of think of the best backcourt duo, a little harder.

Here is mine…

5. West and Goodrich(LAL)

4. Johnson and Cooper(LAL)

3. Isiah Thomas, Dumars(DET)

2. Frazier and Monroe(NYK)

1. Kobe and Nash(LAL)

So this trade to send Nash to LA gives Kobe one last go at his sixth NBA championship.  Nash is a two time MVP arguably one of the best players to ever play point guard and Kobe Bryant is arguably the best player to ever play the game.  Now you tell me how that isn’t the best backcourt…Thats what I thought, no response.  The LA Lakers have a 5-1 odds to win the NBA championship next season, but I say there odds are a whole lot better…I guess only time will tell.  Send me your responses to the BEST BACKCOURT EVER TO PLAY IN THE NBA!
