Recently our friends at Hardwood Paroxysm put together their takes on their favorite possible pickup basketball lineups out there. Naturally these lineups aren’t simply composed of the best players of all time, but focus more on players that are either together or singularly interesting to watch because their flash and style (and sometimes flaws) are undeniably compelling.

Besides, who wants to watch a lineup composed of peak level Magic, Jordan, LeBron, KG and Shaq?

Don’t answer that.

Anyway, that post got the wheels turning for this writer and using that as inspiration it is now time to compose the Pistons pickup team.
