And young Kawhi was better at playing a role, but I wouldn’t be stuck on him.

Though I think I’ve changed my mind and I’d land on Curry/MJ/LeBron/KD…not sure on the 5th guy yet. Hakeem is my placeholder right now.

If the goal is to win, and not the best player at each position, I think I agree with you, except I would drop Duncan

Instead of pippen, maybe Larry Bird or Kevin Durant

both good options, probably my number 2 and 3 pick behind pippen

Pippen seems an odd choice other than having chemistry with MJ

Chemistry with MJ. One of the best in his position group. Elite defender.

Even if I had to pick second, I could put together a team that would beat or

That is a heck of a line up too. Like I said, I'm looking long term. I think you

Pippen isn't a top 30 player all-time. You could have done better there.

consensus top 10 in position

Pippen is a great team player, except when a play is called for a teammate so he refuses to go back into the game

This team has one three point shooter and two perimeter defenders.

How did you get to 1 perimeter defender?

I match you with

Great line up. I think your team would struggle with interior defense with both

If the goal is to create the team that would actually play the best together:

You'd rather have Kawhi than MJ? MJ also a great defender, but gives you way

robin

I’d be a little worried how MJ would play with others. Curry/Durant are locks

If you are playing positionless basketball and you can get LeBron to play with

Lebron (yes he would be my point guard), Jordan, Bird, Giannis, Olajuwon

I would much rather have Jordan play point guard than LeBron. If I remember

here's to hoping

6/17/22 3:49pm

Nah, Jordan’s top single assist season comes in 234th all time

PHXSUNS31

6/17/22 4:09pm

Huh, fair enough

here's to hoping

6/17/22 5:42pm

This is why it is hard to take some people serious when comparing MJ and LBJ

Blueto

One thing this process has shown me, we haven’t seen an elite stretch 5 yet

PHXSUNS31

6/17/22 3:01pm

So we just need Giannis to become an elite shooter, on 3’s, mids, and ft.

robin

6/17/22 3:17pm

He’d be the best player of all time if so

PHXSUNS31

"Small Ball": LeBron, Jordan, Kobe, Durant, Giannis.

Fredette, Ainge, Collinsworth, Davies, Bradley
