I would have to defer to the people who saw the 50's through 70's. There has not been a duo like that since. Although they never won, Zendon and Felipe statistically did well.

Good question.  Statistically I imagine its Zendon and Felipe.

Another route would be Malik and whoever you deem second best from his team - Werdann?

Finally, Artest + Bootsy or Artest + Barkley?

I can't comment prior to Mullin's years, so that's all I got.

Oh of course. But we could only speak of wht we see.  Felipe and Zendon is a good one, although I might go Artest and Barkley

I asked my father about Seiden. Said he was a great player and could score, played against him down in Rockaway and hung out together at  Mcguires bar after. Al McGuire recruited my father to play at Marquette

If you only go with the last 20 so years, Hill and Hamilton prior to Hill's injury could be a sleeper. Too bad the supporting cast wasn't that good.

Wasn't that really a 4 way tie with Ron, Lavor, Bootsy and Erick? They were all great that year.

I'd vote:
1. Berry / Mullin
2. Mullin / Russell
3. 4 way tie
4. Boo and Sealy the one year

Mutt and Jeff -  Harry Boykoff and Hy Gotkin

Got to be them.  They're the only two I can think of to have a duo nickname.
