Since positions don't seem to matter here:
PG: Lebron
SG: Butler
SF: Leonard
PF: George
C: Davis

4 tall, athletic All-NBA 2 way wings who can all score, distribute, defend and hit from distance, as well as get to the line. Davis to anchor the middle and block shots, still with the ability to hit the 3. You could probably swap KAT with AD. X factor/6th man is Giannis.

Too easy.


I thought about picking Westbrook, but if these guys actually played together, Russ would still try to beat the Warriors all by his damn self lol. That's why I chose CP3 instead.


He honestly doesn't make much sense in these teams. Paul is a better fit.


I'd take a chance with Russ and LeBron if we're going by The Ringer's anti-Warrior format ($15 for 5 players).

https://theringer.com/building-a-super-team-to-beat-the-warriors-ad63f1f728eb#.9hnpwdba3

PG - Westbrook ($5)
SG - Avery Bradley ($1)
SF - Nic Batum ($1)
PF - LeBron ($7)
C - Adams ($1)

Any line-up that would pose a realistic chance to beat the Warriors in a 7-game series starts and ends with LeBron. And I chose Russ because LeBron needs someone else to help carry the scoring load.

Cousins atthe 5 come on folks. Who on the Warriors has a chance in hell to stop him when he's on the floor with Lebron?

I don't see that working as well as you think. LeBron works best with a pick-and-roll big. Cousins is mostly back-to-the-basket. You might say there was Kobe and Shaq, but the difference is that Kobe is a knockdown mid-range shooter that Shaq could kick out to, where LeBron is not.

Cousins is definitely talented as hell, but when putting together one superteam to beat another, you want talent AND fit.

Just curious, what does the rest of your team look like after LeBron and Cousins? Remember, you need one player that did not appear on an All-NBA Team.

Wow, what kinds of teams are these?

Redick at PG? LeBron at SG? DeMar at PF?

I'm glad that DeRozan is getting respect but this is too far, lmfao.

Cousins has shown an ability to take and make outside/3point shots so I think it would work out very well. Like the other poster stated Boogie going 1on1 down low would be impossible to stop. Could just use Bradley imo to fill in the "PG" spot.

Bradley
PG
Kawhi
Bron
Cousins

Shoot or image a huge line up of:

Bron
PG
Kawhi
Millsap
Cousins.

Only if you also change the rules to allow 5 balls on the court at once.
Interviewer: Championship #2?
Ujiri: Hey...We're gonna get it. I don't know when it'll be, but we're gonna get it. Just like I said we'll get the first one and I said I didn't know when we'd get it...But we will. Guarantee you we will.

Too bad Steve Smith isn't the GM of an NBA franchise with promising prospects, otherwise I'm sure Masai would give him a call about a trade involving a certain 3-point-allergic "All Star"

I'd be down for that, as long as it still counts as one possession.
A team with 5 Westbrooks and 5 basketballs would score 12pts/possession, a record figure. (Counting And-1s here)

You wanna stop the Warriors? Just put length on Steph and guys to match with the rest of their talent.

Agreed, I'm surprised he isn't on any of their lists.
