Would Shaq even touch the ball with that lineup? Honestly he wouldn't even need to.

I hate these types of teams TBH. Where they just throw together the best players they can think of irregardless of fit. Or the players are so good that they’d make it work anyway. Just seems like lazy fantasy team building IMO. Shaq could’ve easily named Stockton Jordan Durant Dirk and himself and it’d be hard to argue with it too.

Yea i agree. It's a low IQ basketball exercise that can't be proven. A lot of so called super teams have failed to live up to expectations so sometimes putting too many stars on the same team can backfire anyways but i am sure shaq took that into account lol

He would pout if he didn’t.

I'm assuming we're talking about "prime"...

Payton
MJ
Bird
Duncan
Dream

... would beat Shaq's team in 6 games.

He's not even close to the GOAT. top 5 MAYBE if Im being generous. Given all taht we know about different eras, MJ would be an average to above average joe in today's NBA.

That team would get swept. The 3 point shooting advantage alone is more than enough to make it an unfair fight.

Do you ever have any emotion in a post? Or is it all 98% spock, 1 percent data, and one percent opinion. :suds:

Payton/Jordan Defensively would easily contain Curry/Kobe, and a prime Duncan/Dream combo is easily capable of defending KD on the perimeter you old fool... tell us again how Bill Russell would dominate today YET the 90's HOFERS would stand no chance.

Curry abuses Payton something awful. Jordan has an edge on Kobe, but not that big, again, in part because of 3 point shooting and pretty similar styled games. The front courts are again mostly divided by superior ability to spread the court and hit 3s. There's no answer for Durant and the overall need to defend all the way out to the 3 point line.

It's a sweep and the older guys leave with their tails between their legs.
