Mt Rushmore of Seattle SuperSonics???

[dnc]

Starters:
Gary
Gus
Spencer Haywood
Kemp
Sikma

Bench
Forwards: X-Man, Detlef
Guards: DJ, Dale Ellis, Nate Mac-10
Center/PF: Lonnie Shelton

You still have a bench spot left. Could go to Big Smooth or Derrick McKey or DJ (ILTCHDJ) or Fred Brown or Tom Chambers or Rashard Lewis. Lots of options.

I'll go with Smooth. He can play 3-5. DJ is already on the Squad. Chambers was amazing. D was sus, tho. McSpleef had tools but disappeared far too often. Nate and Det are the better options. Both have all-around games, ball-handlers, and GOOD defenders. I'd rather have Dale than Freddy even though I watched Freddy help win it all. Rashard was a GOOD player but not GOOD enough to win.

Not sure how I missed DJ on your list, my bad.

I agree on Smooth btw. I think he'd be even more valuable in the modern NBA. He'd be firing up 7 triples a game now.

To be on the list you gotta have played on a team that mattered. Ray Allen did not matter.

Kemp, Payton, Brown, Sikma.

Cortez Kennedy only played in one playoff game his whole NFL career. He's a Mt Rushmore Seahawk

Ernie Banks never played in the postseason

OK, but Ray Allen was not equivalent to Tez and Ernie Banks. He was in Seattle for a cup of coffee.

I have Gus, Airplane, Jack, Shelton and Durant... with Paul Silas as my 6th man and Fred Brown as my 3rd Guard Rotation.

Were you in a coma during the 90s?

Plus he was a dog lover

Joe Hassett, obviously.

And Tommy Burleson, of course.

Dick Snyder
Dennis Awtrey
Danny Vranes
Jon Sundvold
Bob Rule
"Jammin" James Bailey
Greg Kelser
Bill Hanzlik

If your list doesn’t have Shawn Kemp on it, you can fuck right off. I grew up in the 90s tho, so there’s that.

95-96 Kemp was the franchise GOAT. Rather easily. Too bad the team decided to screw around and sign stiffs like McIlvaine with money that should've gone to Kemp.

X-man was on the Sonics from about 1986-1991 IIRC. He was pretty good, but I wouldn't put him on the Mt. Rushmore.
