mikeyvthedonParticipantI tend to associate most players with the team they were on the longest, or in some cases had the most success with. Here is my list:
- Kevin Garnett: Minnesota Timberwolves
- Ray Allen: Seattle Supersonics (even though it is hard not to think about him as a Buck at first, but his best years were on Seattle)
- LeBron James: Cleveland Cavaliers(That will more than likely change, as I feel he stays on Miami for a good long while. But, he spent 7 years in Cleveland and has only spent two in Miami)
- Ron Artest: Indiana Pacers
- Steve Nash: Phoenix Suns
- Charles Barkley; Phoenix Suns (even with him starting on Philly, he just had monster years in Phoenix)
- Vince Carter: Toronto Raptors (I am from Toronto, hard to not associate him with the team even with everything that went down)
- Jason Kidd: New Jersey Nets
- Tracy McGrady: Orlando Magic
- Shaquille O’Neal: Los Angeles Lakers
- Chris Webber: Sacramento Kings
- Allen Iverson: Philadelphia 76ers (I mean, really? Where else would people remember him, Detroit?)
- Carmelo Anthony: Denver Nuggets
- Chris Bosh: Toronto Raptors
- Chris Paul: New Orleans Hornets
- Wilt Chamberlain: Philadelphia 76ers (Though he started off on the Philadelphia Warriors)
The tougher ones by Chilbert Arenas:
- Grant Hill: Detroit Pistons
- Matt Barnes: Golden State Warriors
- Steve Francis: Houston Rockets
- Nate Robinson: New York Knicks
- Tony Allen: Boston Celtics
- Carlos Boozer: Utah Jazz
I am guessing geography, not to mention age, can play a major part in this. Just think most of these guys either had their most success or longest stint on these teams.

I tried not to think and write what comes to mind-I guess I chose the teams that the player had the most success with( I mean individually, because obviously Kidd won a ring with the mavs and not the nets f.e)
