If you put all of the NBA stars in their HOMETOWN teams..

[ph3n0m3n0n]

Steve Nash, Manu Ginobili, Luis Scola, Dirk Nowitzki, Yao Ming - International.

 

[gatorb807]

Mayo is from Huntington WV, originally and grew up there until he was about 14 or 15 then went back and played his senior year.

West Virginia - White Chocolate, OJ Mayo, Patrick Patterson, Kevin Pittsnogle

Seattle has produced a lot of good players recently - Jamal Crawford, Nate Robinson, Brandon Roy, Terrance Williams, Marvin Williams is from Bremerton, WA

Putting Paul Pierce in on Northern Cali team b/c he was born in Oakland makes about as much sense as putting Melo or Michael Jordan on an NYC team...

 

[kicks4kaskets]

Sonics would have been stacked.

I'm sure you only mean currently...although our front line would be pretty formidable with Odom,Noah, Brand, Artest and even Taj Gibson...Ben Gordon in the backcourt.
I think the Dallas, Seattle and LA Teams are the most well balanced...

 

[jetpackbirdy]

they did something like this in NBA Street Home Court. Philadelphia was kobe, rip, and sheed.

 

[ValarMorghulis]

Houston- TJ Ford, Daniel Gibson, Kendrick Perkins, Deandre Jordan, Gerald Green, Emeka Okafor, Haseem Thabeet (graduated from a Houston Academy)

 

[tsamshox]

Sacramento Kings- Matt Barnes, Ryan Anderson

 

[ballinboykz]

Can Canada as a whole count as a city?

I mean, we could go with Vancouver, but after Nash there is...

Ok moving on.

Can't forget Spencer Hawes and Jon Brockman

 

[statis22]

Houston team like 5 years ago would have been nice but not now. Too many flameouts.

 

[datznasty]

OKC- John Starks, Kelenna Azibuke, JR Gittens, Blake Griffin, Shelden Williams, Darnell Jackson

Tony Allen, Dwyane Wade, and Quentin Richardson to Chicago too to add some perimeter defense.

Bradon Jennings and Nick Young to LA or GSW, Philly backcourt of Kobe and Reke Evans.


North Carolina has a pretty good team too

CP3, Steph Curry, Flip Murray, Josh Howard, damn I forgot already

 

[ricardo malta]

Ya'll better throw Will Bynum on that Chicago team or DC is gonna have an ulcer.

I checked up on this and apparently he was raised in Dallas, I guess it's like Paul Pierce born in Oakland, but raised in Inglewood

 

[im not you]

Ya'll being a lil too strict on that proximity stuff. Hometown don't necessarily have to mean you grew up in those city limits. Melo's hometown NBA team WOULD be the Wizards. The games are aired up there, and though there's not a huge following up there...they're covered in their newspapers. Hell games used to get played up there even when they moved to Washington. Whenever Denver plays here, Melo's family comes out in full force.

 

[dako akong otin]

NorCal can have Paul Pierce.  SoCal's fine with an all guard line up of Baron, Dre Miller, Brandon Jennings, Demar Derozen and James Harden...   I guess Tyson Chandler at center

 

[airvandal180]

Didn't ESPN do a feature on this topic a while ago?

 

[steveakabeazy13]

philly would be a sleeper reke, kb24, rasual butler, sheed, rip, jameer nelson, kyle lowrey, john salmons. they would have to be a run-n-gun team due to lack of size but they would keep it competitive.

 

[kidoopz]

Houston
Tj Ford
Daniel Gibson
Stephen Jackson ( I know from Port Arthur but hey they close to Houston lol)
Rashard Lewis
Emeka Okafor
