All Sixers Team

Starters:

Point Guard: Allen Iverson

Allen Iverson is one of the most popular Sixer players of all time.  "The Answer" was the Sixers first overall pick, and really lived up to his reputation.  He lead the Sixers to the NBA Finals in 2001 even though that wasn't the strongest team ever.  Iverson was also the king of the crossover and at 6ft and 165lbs he was quick and agile.  In Iversons 12 years as a Sixer he averaged 27.2 points per game, 6.0 assists per game, 3.8 rebounds per game, and 2.2 steals per game.

Shooting Guard: Julius "Dr. J" Erving

Dr. J is one of the best players of all time let alone one of the best Sixers of all time.  The Doctor was one of the NBA's first superstars, and was also the childhood hero of Micheal Jordan, Magic Johnson and other NBA players.  Erving was one of the most athletic players in the league shown by the fact that he was the first ever NBA player to dunk from the free throw line in the Slam Dunk contest.  In his 11 years with the Sixers Erving averaged 22.0 points per game, 6.7 rebounds per game, 3.9 assists per game, 1.8 steals per game, and 1.5 blocks per game. 

Small Forward: Billy Cunningham

Billy Cunningham was both a player and a coach for the Sixers, he succeeded doing both.  Cunningham at his time was more a power-forward, but at 6ft 6in I decided that he was more fit for the small-forward position.  Cunningham was nicknamed The Kangaroo Kid for his tremendous jumping ability.  In 1972 Cunningham switched over to the ABA for two years, the first year he won the MVP award for the ABA.  Cunningham in his nine years with the Sixers averaged 20.8 points per game, 10.1 rebounds per game, and 4.0 assists per game.

Power Forward: Charles Barkley
Charles Barkley was one the smallest, but one of the best power forwards of all time.  Barkley was 6ft 6in and 250 pounds.  Barkley was a 6 time All-Star in 8 seasons with the Sixers and was one of the best Sixers of all time.  Barkley is one of four players in NBA history to compile 20,000 points, 10,000 rebounds, and 4,000 assists in their career.  In 1993 Barkley won his first and only MVP award.  Sir Charles was also a member of the 1992 dream, one of the greatest basketball teams of all time.  In his 8 years with the Sixers Barkley averaged 23.4 points per game, 11.6 rebounds per game, and 3.8 assists per game.

Center: Wilt Chamberlain

Wilt Chamberlain is in a tight race with Bill Russell for the best center of all time.  In my opinion Wilt is the best Center of all time.  He was a freak athlete at the time, and at 7ft 1in he won a marathon which is very impressive given the fact that he was also 275 pounds.  Wilt is also the only player in NBA history to score 100 points in one game.  Wilt also is from Philadelphia, and played for a Philadelphia team most of his career.  In his four years with the Sixers he averaged 28 points per game, 23.7 rebounds per game, and 6.3 assists per game.
  
6th Man: Moses Malone

Moses Malone was the missing piece in Julius Erving's puzzle to win a championship.  Malone was a talented though big man who would just beat you up in the post.  At only 6ft 10in and 215 pounds it is very surprising that Malone was able to do what he did in a big man dominated area.  Malone is the third leading rebounder, and the sixth leading scorer in NBA/ABA combined history.  Malone was one of the first players to enter the NBA through high-school, which is why he had such a long career at 21 years.  In his four years with the Sixers Malone averaged 23.9 points per game, 13.4 rebounds per game, and 1.5 blocks per game.

Bench:

SG/SF: Paul Arizin

Paul Arizin although not well known was a great Philadelphia basketball player.  Arizin was born in Philadelphia,went to La Salle for college, and played in Philadelphia for his entire NBA career.  Arizin was really one of the pioneers of modern day basketball.  Arizin was really one of the first players to use a jump shot in the NBA which obviously became revolutionary.  Arizin was one really the start of fast paced basketball.  Arizin had a jump shot, good handles, and was a great defender.  In his ten years in the NBA Arizin averaged 22.8 points per game, 8.6 rebounds per game, and 2.3 assists per game.

PG/SG: Hal Greer

Hal Greer in his era was a shooting guard/small forward type of player, but because of the fact that he is only 6ft 2in and 175 pounds I put him at the guard position.  Hal Greer was a very consistent player putting up around 20 points per game every year.  He played 15 years and was a 10 time all-star all while playing with the same team.  Greer is 14th on the all time scoring list with 21,586 points in his career.  Greer who is a Hall of Famer is probably one of the most consistent players in NBA history.  In his 15 seasons he averaged 19.2 points per game, 5.0 rebounds per game, and 4.0 assists per game.

PF/Center: George Mcginnis 

Even though George Mcginnis only spent 3 years with the Sixers he was fantastic in those three years.  Mcginnis played with Dr.J and the Sixers championship team.  Mcginnis was one of the best overall players at his time.  In his three seasons with the Sixers Mcginnis averaged 21.6 points per game, 11.5 rebounds per game, and 4.1 assists per game.

PG: Mo Cheeks

Maurice Cheeks was a past first type of point guard in his time.  He was a four time All-star, a five time all defensive first team, and an NBA champion.  Cheeks also coached the Sixers for a few years, and currently coaches the Detroit Pistons.  Even though Cheeks was only 6ft 1in and 180 pounds he was still one of the best defensive point guards in the NBA at his time.  Mo Cheeks in his 11 years with the Sixers averaged 12.3 points per game, 3.0 rebounds per game, 7.3 assists per game, and 2.3 steals per game.

SG: Hersey Hawkins

Hersey Hawkins was a great scorer while on the Sixers, but when he left the Sixers his points per game average went down severely.  Hersey Hawkins was an all star once in 1990 and won the NBA sportsmanship award in 1999.  Even though Hawkins was mostly known for his offense he developed to be a good defensive player throughout his career.  During his five years with the Sixers Hawkins averaged 19 points per game, 3.6 rebounds per game, and 3.4 assists per game.

SF: Andre Iguodala

Even though Iguodala was highly criticized during his time in Philadelphia he was still a great player for the Sixers.  Iguodala is both an offensive threat and a strong defensive player.  This also combined with him being very athletic makes Iguodala a great overall player.  Iguodala is a gold medalist, a one time all-star, and a one time all-defensive second team.  During his 8 year tenure Iguodala averaged 15.2 points per game, 5.9 rebounds per game, and 4.9 assists per game.
