Offense:


PG: Curry
SG: MJ
SF: Larry Bird
PF: Dirk
C: Shaq

Defense


Full Throttle all they have to do is spend 100% energy on playing defense.

PG: Either Jason Kidd or Gary Payton
SG: Tony Allen
SF: Best 1 to handle Bird of Scottie Pippen, Kawhi, Dennis Rodman, Peak Defensive Lebron, Artest
PF: Best 1 of KG, Duncan or Draymond
C: Hakeem Olajuwon

so the defense isn't playing offense at all?

how many possessions is the offense getting then? feel like the pace is important here especially if every play is gonna be in the half court (no opportunity for fast breaks).

Since only one team will be attacking at all times, easily over 100.

Coaches/pace are more important than talent for how many points are being scored (as opposed to how good a defense is being played). Put them in the pre-shot clock 50s and someone can hold them under 50. Put them in 1962 against Boston (and ATG defensive team) and they score over 100 easily.

Just based on one on one defences;
Blaylock
Allen
Marion
Draymond
Duncan
. I think Russell,Wilt or Hakeem,Robinson might be better than Duncan overall defensive impact, but Duncan best Shaq defender I've ever seen. He defended Shaq way better than Hakeem and Robinson did.

If you want to get the ultimate one on one defender at center positon, go for Nate Thurmond.

So this is simply impossible to assess.

Are there fast break points? Run outs? Outlet Passes?

1995 is the shortened 3-point line, is that also applicable here?
