Once LJ or Zo gets hurt or ejected for fighting this turns into a Globetrotters-Generals blowout.

The better question might be if that Hornets team could beat that Bulls team 5-on-4.
Think Penalty Box in Hockey.

(Why did you label the teams with the 10/11 and 12/13 seasons?)

Getting to Garbage Time (probably all of the 2nd Half) would be awesome to watch Muggsy and Nate out there.

The biggest mistake for the Hornets GM was putting Scott Burrell on the bench.
If he is cut from the team, the odds of MJ getting bored increase significantly, and thus the Hornets might keep it close through most of the 3rd Quarter too.

Yeah, and Artis wants to know why his agent didn't get the call.

2009 CP3 + 1999 Zo is a monster duo that would make it a battle vs. anyone and fit seamlessly. Don’t really like the LJ fit here nor his defense. I do like Ariza and his wing defense along with one of his best 3p shooting seasons. This team has a better fit than the Chicago team does.

1989 Jordan paired with a much better Pippen and a defender in ‘92 Rodman would be difficult to overcome. Kukoc would play in front of Boozer. I’m not sure Harper could be the ‘96-‘97 Harper who gave up scoring to defend everyone. Also, I see Noah playing more than Parish but that spacing with Noah/Rodman would be poor.

Could see it going either way.
