NBA 2K18: Predicting The Roster For Every All-Time Team

9. Philadelphia 76ers

Centers: Wilt Chamberlain, Red Kerr, Samuel Dalembert

Forwards: Charles Barkley (?), Billy Cunningham, Julius Erving, Chet Walker, Dolph Schayes, Moses Malone

Guards: Allen Iverson, Andre Igoudala, Hal Greer, Maurice Cheeks

Starting lineup: Chamberlain, Barkley, Erving, Greer, Iverson

The Sixers combine past with the present like few teams on this list. What is especially notable is the backcourt of Iverson and Greer - two small and quick Hall of Fame combo-guards.

Greer and Chamberlain both played in the NBA before the introduction of the three point shot and were very prolific scorers. Julius Erving was Michael Jordan before Michael Jordan, while Charles Barkley was almost unstoppable.

The whole team is especially strong in the frountcourt, with just four backcourt players. Yes, these players are great, but when tired or injured, they might be not enough to stop teams able to put more equally-talented guards on court.
