Off the top of my head something like Hakeem/Reggie or Steph/Draymond. One of the two would have to be near top 20 all time and a proven playoff performer to do it. Even then its not a given without knowing who you are putting around the goat tier guy.

Depends on other assumptions.
What era salary cap structure? What CBA? When from (e.g. as rookies)? What assumptions about ability to retain stars (apart from some of the above, what market am I in)?

Yeah I’d take Kobe/Gasol over any 1 player in NBA history.
