Chauncey and Rip still edge by on the merits, but I don't think any other team is particularly close. Counting a trio as a duo seems from the purpose. Here's how I'd rank 'em... 1. Chauncey/Rip 2. Parker/Ginobili 3. D. Williams/R. Brewer 4. Davis/Ellis 5. Kobe/Fisher Meh, Parker and Ginobilir are paired more than any other backcourt combination on the team, especially during the playoffs.

I'm telling y'all, these two seem to beat teams by themselves at times. I get to watch every Warriors game so I'm defintely biased, but I'm pretty confident in naming Davis/Ellis as the best backcourt behind Billups/Hamilton. I know that they haven't won anything and all of that, but when these two are both having good games, it's lights out. Besides, Ginoboli doesn't start so I don't count Parker and Ginoboli as a combo.

It bothers me when he claims they're the top of the backcourts when they're not even a starting duo, but their combined production is as impressive as any other.

I know both are Fisher/Farmar and Bell/Barbosa are two-headed monsters but to me the Pistons, Lakers, and Suns get the most production out of their backcourt. If New Orleans had a solid player with the resume of Raja Bell or Derek Fisher at guard I'd throw them in the mix of best backcourts on the strength of Chris Paul's game.
