Preview: Twin Tower concept working very well for Mavs
The Twin Tower concept has been tried before many times in the past in the NBA with great success.
The Houston Rockets used it in the 1980’s with Hakeem Olajuwon (7-0) and Ralph Sampson (7-4). The Boston Celtics perfected in the 1980’s with Kevin McHale (6-10) and Robert Parish (7-0).
The San Antonio Spurs became a force with a big lineup that included Tim Duncan (6-11) and David Robinson (7-1), and used it to win NBA titles in 1999 and 2003. Milwaukee cashed in and captured the 2021 NBA championship with big players Giannis Antetokounmpo (6-11) and Brook Lopez (7-1) on the front line.
