First Name Allstars

Posted by: John D on September 12th, 2012

The author's views are entirely his or her own and may not reflect the views of the Utah Jazz.

What first name would you choose to make a 3-on-3 (NBA Jam) team? 5-on-5?   What about historic teams?  Obviously, you have to have enough guys to make a team, so, no, you can’t play LeBron  or Kobe by themselves, though that might be Kobe’s dream situation: Kobe vs. the Jordans (Hill, Farmar and Crawford) and settle the debate once and for all.

A really good team:  The Kevins: Durant, Love, Garnett, Martin, ( Murphy off the bench!)

All-injury team: (That could be dominant if healthy)        The Andrews (-eis):  Bogut, Bynum and Kirilenko.

Pretty good hometown hero teams:     The Pauls:  Millsap, Pierce and George.

The Als:  Jefferson, Horford and Harrington (with Alec Burkshire Hathaway off the bench)

The Derricks:            Favors, Rose, Williams (who would beat the Dereks (Fisher))

Pretty bad hometown teams:   The Earls:  Watson, Boykins, Barron, Clark.

The Jama(a)ls:  Tinsley, Crawford, Magloire.

(Both these teams would have done much better 5 to 10 years ago)

Hometown Cult Hero team:   The Jeremys: Evans and Lin ( I guess we need a third. Pargo?).

We have the only Mo, Marvin, Gordon (first name), Enes, Randy, Shan, Demarre and Raja in the league, I think.

An awesome team (that would be dominant):  The Mark Variatons (there is no Mark):  Marc Gasol, Marcin Gortat, LaMarcus Aldridge, DeMarcus Cousins, Marcus Thorton, Marco Belinelli and Markieff Morris. With Madsen as coach.

How about historically?

   If you went of the last name it would be easier. The Williams, Deron, Mo, Marvin, Derrick, Latavious (OKC Player)
