[...] talking about who would start for the Blazers was a fun topic. We had a great discussion about our “Favorite Blazer Starting 5″ and also have been looking at “Which Blazer Starting 5 Would Win?” making three teams [...]

Rachael, i think that putting Roy, Fernandez and Batum all in the starting lineup would just make Portland so long and hard to matchup with.

I think Brian Grant should be added in there –

G – Porter
G – Drexler
F – Kersey
F – Grant
C – Sheed/Sabonis

Combining eras, I’ll go with:

PG – TP
SG – Roy
SF – Drexler
PF – LaMarcus
C – Walton

Bench would include:

C – Sabonis
PF – Sheed – assuming he’d come off the bench for me (my guess is he would cuss me out and punch me in the face when I told him he was sitting behind Aldridge
SF – Pippen
SF – Kersey
PF/C – Mo Lucas – he was a bad dude fellas. An absolute beast and a good player too. Not just an enforcer but a proficient scorer and rebounder.
PG – Dave Twardzik
SF – Vandeweigh – deadly shooter and scorer
G – Geoff Petrie

That leaves me with 12 guys after Sheed punches me out and is released…

PG – Damon Stoudamire
SG – Brandon Roy

C – Sabonis

OK, maybe now I have to add Bayless in there. What a great game he had last night!

I like the 2000 lineup but with bonzi instead of steve smith: the jail blazers before they were the jail blazers. maybe even replace smith with J.R. Rider ha

Bryan is probably right about having some scoring bunch off the bench. i just think that the best 5 blazers on the floor would be Roy, Fernandez, Batum, Aldridge and Oden. Big and athletic!

I’m curious why you chose the current five that you did. Interesting to put Brandon at PG and start Rudy. I imagine that the Sarge considered a lot of options, so why would he choose to pass this one over?
