Jordan is clearly the best player here, but Iverson is clearly the worst, and I think Kobe and Wade would be a better fit. I'll take them.

I couldn't think of a worse superstar player to have in the backcourt with Jordan. The whole point of Iverson is to score for your team, but when you have MJ the guy with the highest scoring average average in season, playoffs and finals, more scoring titles, wayyyy better efficiency then what purpose would Iverson serve with him?

Jordan/Iverson.

Jordan and Kobe are close

I'll take the team with Jordan on it.

Kobe is closer to Jordan than he is to Wade and Wade is closer to Iverson than he is to Kobe. Sorry.

Give me Jordan and Iverson, then I go on and trade Iverson for Billups, McDyess and Samb (under the assumption I get the prime versions of those guys).

Seriously, that is Bryant and Wade over Jordan and Iverson. I don't want Iverson taking shots away from the more efficient Jordan, and Iverson without the ball isn't worth much.

Get a grip. Kobe and Wade are MUCH closer than Kobe and Jordan.

Anyway, this is Kobe/Wade. Wade is better than Iverson to a greater degree than Jordan is better than Kobe. Not a fan of AI's style of play.

MJ & Kobe are on the same tier, Wade and Iverson are not. This is clearly Kobe/Wade.
