Which trio is better considering peaks?

I'm taking MJ, Magic, and Bird. I just can't see anyone beating those three Alpha males.

If we're just looking at peaks, it's at least interesting, and at least somewhat dependent on what players are around them.

Still, if I had to pick one, it'd still definitely MJ/Magic/Bird, as long as they have an ample amount of big bodies to use fouls on Shaq.

Its why Colts thinks John Stockton is an alpha male--his anti-vaccination just supports his wokeness.

I'll take the team which fits better, better defenders, better finishers inside, better rim protection and better shooters.

The first team is better in terms of shooting, while the second is better in terms of defense. Are you playing games with my mind?

Probably a wash with shooting though Curry alone is so much more impactful as a shooter than the impact alone may Trump the other trios impact as shooters.

Difficult one but having no real answer for guarding Shaq makes me lean towards the Steph/LeBron/Shaq trio.

I'd take my three ALPHA MALES and SCHOOL those SNOWFLAKES with pure GRIT, TOUGHNESS and MAMBA MENTALITY.

I think you have to pick Curry/Lebron/Shaq.

I usually prefer teams with worse fit, worse defenders, worse finisher, worse rim protection, and worse shooters, but in this particular case I think you're spot on

I will pay more to watch the first team but bet all my money on the second team. Maybe changing Magic to Duncan or Kareem would help.

I'm taking MJ, Bird and Magic. Bird and Magic alone would take turns on the offensive end throwing slick passes to each other and whoever else. Then with MJ added in there its even more dangerous. What can Lebron/Curry and Shaq do against that trio? Very little because Bird/Magic alone have the great passing as said before, and MJ is killer. Plus MJ can also kick it back out to either of the two. The 3 of them would be like the globetrotters together.

Scoring all over the place. Shaq would be a monster but he'd also be a huge liablity that'll cost them. Same with Curry. Lebron would want out because not enough help. As soon as Lebron is pissed Shaqs ego will clash with him and then just like that. Drama. Too much drama to stop MJ/Bird and Magic.

Ah yes, notable drama-less player Michael Jordan is on the other side after all.
