10-Chad Johnson and T.J. Houshmandzadeh: No other duo of receivers in the NFL are bigger long ball threats. Plus, they're lots of fun to watch. It's too bad their talents are wasted on a team that has one of the NFL's worst defenses.
9-Allen Iverson and Carmelo Anthony: Both are among the best scorers in the NBA. What makes them great together is that they do their scoring in different ways.
8-David Wright and Jose Reyes: The left side of the Mets infield is easily the best in all of baseball. They're both great with their bats and both will be MVP candidates for years to come. The scary thing is that they're both under 25.
7-Terrell Owens and Tony Romo: With T.O.'s help, Romo has established himself as one of the leagues best QB's. TO has remained one of the best wideouts in the NFL with the Cowboys. The difference is that he hasn't thrown Romo under a bus like he did to QB's in his previous stops.
6-Dany Heatley and Jason Spezza: One sets them up while the other one knocks them down. Heatley has been among the NHL's top goal scorers the past few seasons while Spezza has been amazing at opening up the ice and finding his talented line-mate.
5-David Ortiz and Manny Ramirez: No other three/four hitters in baseball scare pitchers more. Just ask the Indians and Rockies... And every other team in baseball.
4-Tony Parker and Tim Duncan: Although not the flashiest players these two have showed they have what it takes to work great together at the highest level and win championships.
3-Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin: While Crosby is recognized as the best player in the league, Malkin in steadily becoming one of the flashiest play makers in the NHL. If these two can stay together I see lots of Stanley Cups in Pittsburg's future.
2-Steve Nash and Amare Stoudemire: Amare is Nash's go to guy and they always seem to know where each other are at on the court. They play with each other better than any two teamates in the NBA.
1-Tom Brady and Randy Moss: These two have been absolutely unstoppable since teaming up this year. Both are among the smartest in the league at their positions. Brady's poise and fantastic arm are an amazing compliment to Moss's unmatched athleticism.
Also receiving consideration: Shawn Michaels and Marty Janetty, Grimmace and the Hamburglar, and Shawn and Cory from the TV show 'Boy Meets World'.

What about Manning and Harrison?! Nice picks, but they shoulda been in the mix.
parker and duncan are too high... duncan is an all-time great, but parker drags the duo down as he's a borderline all-star at best
Great picks again...but manning and harrison shoulda been in there....but then again this may be a current top 10 duos and harrison has kinda slided....alfreddson and ginobili got excluded as i feel they're vital to the duos that were named...and dont snub parker by sayin hes not flashy...he makes impossible layups and crossovers and spinmoves that look sick and finishes top in the league in FG percentage IN THE PAINT, a place reserved for the Yao, Gasol ,Shaq etc
what about homer bush and craig grebeck?
haha, nothin beats the 1999 Jays. hahaha. bush had a good year that year though. the little bastard hit .320. I like the picks though but there is one i feel should be here that isn't that i can see why it was overlooked. Williams and Boozer on the Utah Jazz. Carlos Boozer is the most under rated player in the NBA. This guy racks up the type of stats we see from Tim Duncan on a good season. And then the is Williams who is unreal and will soon be the best PG in the league. 17ppg and 9apg in his sophomore year last season. I think These two can lead the Jazz to a championship. They are like the new Stockton and Malone minus about 3APG. They always get overlooked.
