Best Possible NBA Jam Duo For Every Team

Here are the rules: 

The two players had to play together on the same team, and since NBA Jam dropped in 1993, they can’t come from before 1993. For example, Magic Johnson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar wouldn’t work. This was difficult…but really fun. Where do you disagree? There were multiple pairs of great options in a few cases (ie: Rockets, Bulls) but I did my best. Hit Slackie on Twitter!
