I have been thinking this lately, I’d take bird over lebron on my all time starting 5 lol. He was nasty. Lebrons jump shot isn’t in the same league

That's a nice thought experiment. What would be your starting five? I'd have to really think about that as I would be heavily biased toward the 90s NBA as that was what I've watched the most. I'd have to have MJ and Kobe alternate between SG and SF. Just can't pass up on having two stone-cold killers on the court.
Tentatively my starting 5:
PG: Stockton
SG: MJ
SF: Kobe
PF: Rodman (have enough scorers, need a monster for the rebounds)
C: Hakeem
Oh yeah, Lebrick always had a terrible jumpshot for sure. Back when I used to play 2K, I always used to deliberately edit him from a overrated 90+ overall to where I think he belongs w/o the PEDs, in the 70-80 overall rating.
