I don't know. Hard to go against Kobe and Jordan on the same team but it's easy to see Shaq own both Rodman and Gasol.

Jackson should have Shaq, not Riley. Miami played with a somewhat washed up Shaq (and still won the championship, I will add), but Phil had prime MVP Shaq.

That dominant 1-3 of team Jackson just isn't dominant enough to counter Riley's super dominant 4 and 5, especially considering that Riley's 1-3 are excellent players, and Jackson's aren't HOF caliber guys.

I tend to agree, especially as it's only dominant 2-3 since Magic has advantage over Pippen anyway. On the other hand, the other poster is right that Shaq should be in fact in Phil's team.

OP: Rodak? Pozdrawiam. :-)

Team Jackson should have some nasty perimeter defense with Jordan, Pippen and Kobe. Looking at the outside shooting ability of team Riley, team Jackson should zone up the perimeter.

Team Riley has the depth to win.

Team Jackson, and it really wouldn't even be that close.

The BEST player ever...MJ
The 2nd greatest SG ever...Kobe
The most dominant C ever..Shaq
The best perimeter defender ever...Pippen
One of the greatest rebounders of all time...Rodman.

This teams defense would be suffocating. 4 Great to HoF caliber defenders.
3 super dominant scorers.

Honestly, they would have the defense to slow team Riley and team Riley wouldn't have nearly enough to slow team Jackson.

even if snaq was on riley's team, pj's team would win. all you'd do is jam the middle and let them shoot outside.

That's actually true. Just play zone and they can't do anything. Magic never faced the zone and they don't have any shooters on Riley's team.
