Should fans of the Boston Celtics be worried that star Celtics forward Jaylen Brown picked three Los Angeles Lakers greats to be on his greatest of all time basketball starting five to start? Maybe not, seeing as one of the trio he started with he ended up cutting in favor of the winningest player in history, Bill Russell, was also a Celtic.
That would be the Big Aristotle himself, Shaquille O’Neal, but then again, he did end up being cut by Brown by the end of the clip shared by House of Highlights on social media in favor of Russell. To round out the roster, Russell was joined by Stephen Curry, Kobe Bryant, Kevin Durant, and LeBron James one through four, with Bill at the 5.
That’s a very defensible all-time starting five, even if you are looking at it though green-tinted lenses.
