Tim Hardaway PG 30 6'0'' 175 C+ A A A- C- C
22.3 ppg 5.5 rpg 9.5 apg 2.4 spg
All-League 3rd Team
Analysis: If this team existed in reality, they would have won every championship for a decade.
An unbelievable accumulation of talent and a prolific season, plus only two losses in the entire postseason to boast.
2) 2029 Chicago Bulls
69-13 Record
BBS CHAMPION
Purnell Jackson Playoffs MVP
4-0 over Nuggets in the Finals
7 losses in the postseason
Key Players:
Evan Dickerson C 32 7'0'' 231 A- C D+ A- A- C

Lavelle Langston PG 23 6'1'' 165 C A+ B B+ D+ B
21.8 ppg 4.3 rpg 8.4 apg 2.0 spg 1.7 topg
Analysis: This was the epitome of a TEAM. Only one award on this entire team and it went to arguably the worst player listed above.
This Bulls team had the best regular season record of any championship team in BBS history.
3) 2037 Orlando Magic
65-17 Record
BBS CHAMPION
Johnny Green Playoffs MVP
4-0 over Suns in the Finals
2 losses in the postseason
Key Players:
Rudy LaRusso C 30 6'8'' 228 A- C C A- A- D

All-League 2nd Team
All-Defensive 2nd Team

22.7 ppg 10.3 rpg 1.4 bpg
Johnny Green SF 33 6'5'' 205 A C D+ B A B
27.1 ppg 9.7 rpg 1.0 topg
Analysis: Repole abandoned his outside-oriented leanings and went for it with an incredible inside-oriented team of savvy veterans.
As someone who loves inside offenses, this might be my favorite team of the bunch.
This team was efficient, took care of the ball, blocked shots and scored in bunches. Repole at his finest.
4) 2000 Chicago Bulls
67-15
BBS CHAMPION
Penny Hardaway MVP
4-2 win over Spurs in the Finals
6 losses
Key Players:
Shaquille O'Neal C 28 7'2'' 329 A- D C- A- A C
24.0 ppg 13.1 rpg 3.5 bpg
All-League 2nd Team
All-Defensive 2nd Team
Glenn Robinson SF 27 6'7'' 225 A- A- C A- C+ C
31.2 ppg 7.5 rpg 3.1 apg 2.2 spg
All-League 2nd Team
Anfernee Hardaway PG 29 6'7'' 195 B B A B- C C
15.9 ppg 6.0 rpg 11.2 apg 2.1 topg
Analysis: Shaq and Glenn Robinson on the same team. Enough said. Robinson is a forgotten stud in BBS lore and Shaq was... well, Shaq.
Penny was traded around quite a bit and was even considered a bad contract for a period of time.
Play made the most of that situation, as Hardaway ended up being the Playoffs MVP for the second-finest team that he ever assembled.
5) 1991 New Jersey Nets
70-12
Only 70-win team ever
4-1 Conference Championship Loss to Eventual Champion Bobcats
Key Players
Hakeem Olajuwon C 28 6'10'' 250 A C C A+ A C
30.8 ppg 13.8 rpg 3.3 apg 2.1 spg 4.2 bpg

22.1 ppg 4.7 rpg 9.1 apg 3.0 spg
All-League 2nd Team
All-Defensive 2nd Team
Alvin Robertson PG 29 6'3'' 185 B- C+ B- A C D
9.8 ppg 6.2 rpg 3.0 apg 2.7 spg
All-Defensive Team
Analysis: Hakeem's averages on this team may be the most absurd in league history. Try to find a better stat-line, I dare you.
Defense may not have won them a championship, but it won them the most games in BBS Regular Season history.
Michael Cage and Alvin Robertson were completely pedestrian-looking players, but they were starters who ended up on All-Defensive teams.
