This basicly has the best player on his position (arguably center) except Wade who showed he can play off the ball which is needed with a team with 5 all time greats like this.
not including Hakeem or Shaq and Duncan for those prices in any lineup is a complete fail

Lol at the off ball stuff in hypotheticals ...idea is to build best team. Kobe was fine off ball in the Olympics. I think magic mj duncan hakeem is your core and use leftovers on scottie. Though 3pt shooting is iffy magic and scottie can hit set 3s decent enough. Duncan and Hakeem are two of the best post players in league history. Hakeem protects the rim while Tim anchors the middle. Both have mid range for spacing. Magic makes sure the offense clicks and the GOAT takes the crunch shots a defensive line-up with Pip, Hakeem, Tim and MJ is unbeatable tbh even with Magics iffy defense.

This is the smartest post on here. Why would anyone take Magic Johnson when you could just put Lebron in the same spot for the same price?! Magic is huge and not really a PG just like Lebron. He just played in a different era in regard to his "position."

I guess the only alternate I have is have Stockton and Bird instead of Magic and Scottie.
This starting five has everything, scoring, passing, perimeter defense, interior defense, off the ball defense, intangibles, players willing to take a back seat (except MJ). Now just put in Daly as a coach, and you are set.

Duncan/Hakeem being so undervalued makes this shit pointless. :lol at Bill Russell being 4 points.
If I could get CP3 for 0 points, I'd do that all day. I want a PG that can actually spread the floor if needed.
PG: CP3
SG: Jordan
SF: Lebron
PF: Duncan
C: Hakeem
or if I could get Ray Allen for 0 or 1. Three would be my choice if I had to stick to the script, but I'd rather have a deadeye/clutch shooter if needed. The fast breaks with this lineup would be just amazing to watch.
PG: Magic
SG: Ray Allen
SF: Lebron
PF: Duncan
C: Hakeem
If you weren't limited by position and without doing the Hakeem/Duncan combo,
PG: Lebron
SG: Jordan
SF: Durant
PF: KG
C: Shaq
Dirk/Hakeem is the other option, but I like the ability to have a guy out there you don't need to really run plays for (KG). He's also the best passer outta the guys listed and is nearly as good a defender as Hakeem. Dirk spreads the floor, but Shaq gives you a much better inside/out game.
Durant is there because I want at least one pure shooter on the team. (Although Bron/Jordan/Pippen/KG/Wilt would be ridiculous as hell too without doing Duncan/Hakeem.)
So tbh this team can't be beat if we're not following the rules. Too much defense and just enough shooting.

Jordan
Pippen

i know when you have players of this caliber, its nit-picking, but that team has no outside shooting threat at all, which could make the stockton-bird combo a better fit in this case

Hakeem and Duncan are both dominate defenders... In all likelihood, Lebron would be too if he could just focus his energy on that end. (Like he would in an all star team) Wade is probably one of the better defenders at SG too. Second best on the SG list given tbh.
The no "go to scorers" is 100% horseshit. Every single one of those guys has had their moments.

Celtics lost 53 games before Bird joined. Following season won 61 without Parrish or McHale.

Hakeem at a buck is ridiculous.

Stockton at 2 is not a gimme. Take away Karl Malone in those years he was with the Jazz and I guarantee you he'll be a crappy miserable player. Karl Malone made John Stockton who he is. Likewise, Dennis Rodman and Scottie Pipper to a certain extent made Michael Jordan who he is.

My first thought was Tim, Hakeem, Mike, Scottie, magic. But everyone has already said that.
What about. Stockton, Jordan, Lebron, KG, and Hakeem or Shaq.
Stockton over Isaiah(who is only a buck more) because of better passing/efficiency/defense. Jordan for obvious reasons. Lebron doesn't have to be the guy but is still a threat and play good defense. KG over dirk because with the many options for offense you can't afford to not have a good defender at this position. And anyone but Shaq or hakeem is a waste i think.
Obviously I would want Tim over KG and Magic over Stockton, but just wanted to make a list with Lebron due to his versatility and have no room left for tim when i want to keep Jordan but don't want Frazier because I don't know him really.
Btw, Was Jerry West considered a SG? I just saw him in a greatest PG list just after stockton.

I guess I should've told you guys I'm evaluating the player based off of how good they are individually. It's just kind of hard to imagine the type of stats Stockton could put up without Malone.
we saw how effective stockton was when he had a great scorer/finisher, so i'm sure he'd do just as good if not better with the likes of MJ, Hakeem, Duncan. plus unlike Magic he provides some sort of spacing, and makes your own defensive assignments less tricky.

Stockton was no great 1 on 1 defender he gets torched by every other PG on this list even Kidd who would rather pass . .plus GP Enrique and Cp3. John was a great competitor tough and good team defender

i know when you have players of this caliber, its nit-picking, but that team has no outside shooting threat at all, which could make the stockton-bird combo a better fit in this case
True, but then Jordan will nail 6 3 pters in a half just to prove a point.
Don't be too dense pops, I didn't create the list myself. I'm never gonna rank Charles and Karl over Tim. Just pick with the $15 that you have
Oh I wouldn't accuse you of being able to come up with that yourself, but you did try to subtly pass it off as legit.

Lebron, Jordan, Shaq, KG, and Stockton. I think it would be the most fun team to watch, and good luck scoring.
bonus almost all white team!
Bird, Stockton, Jerry, Dirk and Russell.

I put a disclaimer that I got it on social media. You have your own choice to take the list and build your line-up from it or dismiss it. You could blame the list for being faulty but don't point the finger at me for trying to pass it off as legit. I didn't. Looking back, I should've edited the list before I posted it here so that you wouldn't get so worked up with Charles and Malone being fantasy-valued higher than Tim Duncan. Come on now this is just a little game. Don't go spurraider21 on me

i'd be curious to see how West handles elite modern day athletic guards on the other end though. i feel like stockton/west could be overmatched by an athletic backcourt.

So you found something you agreed with and decided to pull a stat fag move and pretend it was arbitrary. Got it.
