Super team is one of the hottest topics in the NBA this year, and the end of playoffs has not yet been set.
Draymond Green pointed out in the parade that LeBron James was the ancestor of the "super team", but James denied that he started the era of "super team".
James explained that in the 2002-03 season, the Lakers found Karl Malone, Gary Payton, Shaq ONeal and Kobe Bryant, and in the 1995-96 season, the Rockets found Charles Barkley, Hakeem Olajuwon and Clyde Drexler. James said that these people started this trend.
Referring to James' remarks, Drexler clarified in a recent interview that they are not the first-generation super team. If you really want to say it, it would be in the earlier 1960s, Celtic brought together Bill Russell, John Havlicek, Bob Cousy and Jones (Sam Jones).
or the Lakers in the 1980s, they have three major stars, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Worthy and Magic Johnson, and Celtic also has Larry Bird, Robert Parish, Cedric Maxwell, McHale (Kevin McHale) and Dennis Johnson.
"You all know that I like LeBron very much. What he said makes sense, but I want to make a different view." Drexler said in an interview with ESPN, "The three giants are Kareem, Worthy and Magic, or Bird, Parish, and McHale. At that time, the teams had four to five great stars, not just three."
"Like Russell, Havlick, Cousy, and Jones of Celtic in the 1960s. That was the first Big Three team, so that was earlier." Drexler said, "What I want to say to LeBron is that I am grateful for his remarks, but that was earlier than the Rockets and the University of Houston men's basketball team.
