None of them could get off the blocks with the speed of a top level sprinter, none of them have the muscle memory to compete in distance running(and many are too big), they would be outsmarted in beach volleyball and indoor volleyball, they lack the skills to be effective field athletes, ditto for swimming, and the list goes on.
In general to be olympic level athlete you're among the very best in your sport, and it's incredibly difficult to be at that level in more than 1 sport.
That being said,
I'd put Dwight Howard in volleyball, Rudy Gay or LBJ in the decathlon, Mike James in boxing, and Gerald Green would dominate the para-olympics.
That is so wrong.
