Who you got, how confident are you in your choice.

Tough to say. With either pair in or near their prime you're a title favorite unless the rest of your roster is terrible.

I guess KG/Jokic just due to Birds somewhat limited longevity.

Jokic/KG with high confidence.

Jokic > Bird is a given. I prefer KG to Hakeem for today's game given that both are playing next to a better offensive option.

For now at least, Bird has a better longevity than Jokic.

Bird is by far the worst player here, so

A top ten all time guy, listed with three other guys is “by far” the worst? Interesting take. Mathematically seems off.

Joker is the best player here so I'm taking his combo. Hard for me to pass on Bird whom I love and Dream is a great partner. But given the chance to pair KG with Joker, I'm just sitting back and counting championship runs.

Bird is the word and Hakeem is the dream

I voted Jokic/KG with about 75% certainty. Either duo should wreck the league though.

Hakeem is the best player. I’ll take the team with him

KG isn't clutch so that kind of makes him the weak link in this comparison.

Irrelevant because nobody is going to KG down the stretch, everything is running through Joker. Also, I bet his "clutch" defense grades out just fine. He's just not an elite scorer. Which might be a concern if he wasn't a good scorer and great at so many other things.

I agree that Jokic is the best guy here considering their peaks. And KG is basically tailor made to cover for Jokic's few weaknesses, specifically his defensive mobility. It's hard to imagine a better frontcourt partner for him. I'm taking that pairing.

Bird is the highest guy on my all time top-10 but the correct answer if Jokic/KG because we’ve seen them do it in the modern era. Hakeem/Dirk would make more sense.

Jokic and KG. KG can do everything Aaron Gordon does as a lob threat while also being a legitimate floor spacer. He'd also be an elite defender to cover for Jokic. Haven't seen it mentioned yet, but KGs intensity is a floor raiser too.

I don't know if there's another 4/5 combo in general that I would take over Jokic/KG.
