PG: Stephen Curry (2016: 20.2 FGA)
SG: Joe Ingles (2017: 5.5 FGA)
SF: Lebron James (2018: 19.3 FGA)
PF: Anthony Davis (2018: 19.5 FGA)
C: Rudy Gobert (2017: 7.7 FGA)

SG/SF: Kyle Korver (2018: 6.6 FGA)
SF: Brandon Rush: (2016: 3.6 FGA)
C: Cheick Diallo (2018: 3.4 FGA)

Total FGA: 85.8 / 88

PG: Stephen Curry (40) / Lebron James (8)
SG: Joe Ingles (22) / Kyle Korver (26)
SF: Lebron James (32) / Brandon Rush (16)
PF: Anthony Davis (40) / Joe Ingles (8)
C: Rudy Gobert (40) / Cheick Diallo (8)

We have an excellent fitting team around Lebron. Curry is the best possible version of the PGs Lebron has succeeded with in the past (Mo Williams, etc.) and Davis has proven to work great with him on both ends. Curry and Davis can also be a strong pick and roll combination. We have elite level shotblocking in Davis and Gobert up front, and great shooting in Curry, Ingles, Korver. Our bench may not be the best but Korver was still one of the best players on the 2018 Cavs, Rush can hit 3s and Diallo is a warm body. Our star power and fit on both ends carry us here.

PG: Allen Iverson/ Eric Snow
SG: Jimmy Butler/ Allen Iverson
SF: Ben Simmons/ Jimmy Butler/ Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot
PF: Charles Barkley/ Ben Simmons
Cc: Joel Embiid/ Charles Barkley/ Manute Bol

Total: 86.7/ 88.0

Philly Strong. Tough, aggressive team that can score on all levels of the court. Defensively we have versatility to matchup man to man and play the passing lanes to turn teams over and score easily on the break with elite finishers in the lane led by Allen Iverson and Charles Barkley who are also elite at drawing contact to create fouls. More to come...

MVP Magic runs the show offensively, flanked by an explosive cast of KG, Dwight, and PG. At the other end, our frontcourt is downright outrageous defensively, and will surely generate a crapload of transition opportunities for Magic and Co. to run riot. Crucially, beyond our four stars, we've also got solid depth: Hill is a nice fit next to Magic on both ends, Hoiberg spaces the floor, Barnes brings his defensive chops and toughness on the wing, and Divac is an excellent backup to Dwight. There are no passengers or liabilities on this roster, and that combined with our ridiculous top-end talent should put us over the top.

John Stockton / Marcus Smart
Kobe Bryant / Marcus Smart
Shane Battier / Gordon Hayward
Karl Malone / Shane Battier
Yao Ming / Ronny Turiaf

Elite 2-way team with a high quality bench. Kobe + 2 skilled bigs is a proven formula. Stockton sets the table. Play stifling defense, slow the game down, and go to work in the halfcourt. Might not have the same high level firepower as other teams, but the combination of depth and fit is perfect.

Hakeem Olajuwon ( 1990 ) 19.6 - Led league in rebs, blks, DRtg, DWS, DBPM
Serge Ibaka ( 2013 ) 9.7 - All-D, led league in blks, 35.1% on 0.7 3PA
Scottie Pippen ( 2000 ) 10.5 - All-D, 5.0 APG
Michael Jordan ( 1990 ) 24.0 - Led league in scoring, steals, PER, W/S
Sleepy Floyd ( 1990 ) 9.8 - 38.0% on 2.9 3PA

Detlef Schrempf ( 2000 ) 5.6 - 41.9% on 3.2 3PA
Thabo Sefolosha ( 2013 ) 5.8 - 3-D, 40.4% on 0.7 3PA
Ed Nealy ( 1990 ) 3 - .122 W/S per 48

88.0 / 88.0


Hakeem Olajuwon 38 / Ed Nealy 8 / Serge Ibaka 2
Serge Ibaka 34 / Detlef Schrempf 14
Scottie Pippen 36 / Detlef Schrempf 6 / Thabo Sefolosha 6
Michael Jordan 28 / Thabo Sefolosha 20
Sleepy Floyd 36 / Michael Jordan 12


We have the best player and arguably the best big man in this game. Rather than a third alpha needing shots we have Scottie Pippen, a perfect complement to Mike. Sleepy provides even more creation, as well as spacing along with Ibaka. Detlef brings a spark off the bench.

Our defensive interior is ferocious with both Hakeem and Ibaka leading the league in blocks in the season selected. The perimeter defenders rank from good to elite. Thabo can be called on to help cool off a variety of offensive threats.
