I would pick Ewing and Dirk

I think Ewing is good enough defensively and he has very good post game.
Dirk has outside shooting. Were KG does not .
I think Offensively speaking this is more balanced team.

Even if you were entirely convinced that Dirk was better than Garnett which is easily debatable. There's no way you pick Dirk/Ewing. Moses and KG have 4 MVPS and 3 Chips between them. What do Dirk and Ewing honestly have on them
My Starting 5:

PG: Allen Iverson
SG: Paul Pierce
SF: Kevin Durant
PF: Kevin Garnett
C: Patrick Ewing

KG/Moses. The opposing team would never get a rebound.

I think Ewing and Dirk is a near perfect pairing. More perfect in terms of fit than Moses/KG. But clearly the overall talent edge goes to KG/Moses. Really tough call. I think I'd choose Dirk/Ewing, but that's with an admitted bias from watching how great Dirk was next to merely decent defensive centers like Erick Dampier, much less a guy like Pat. I feel like I know better what I'd be getting from that pair.

KG/Moses, but only by a little. Dirk/Ewing is a good combo; Ewing covers up for Dirk, defensively, and Nowitzki is such an offensive beast. But Garnett and Malone...that's just nasty.

Looked at the top 100 board and Moses > Ewing and KG > Dirk. I always felt Ewing should have played closer to the basket and I liked the toughness of Moses so I will go with Moses/KG
I find your lack of faith disturbing.
