Team Kobe has the edge at every position except SG. Jordan is better than Kobe, but not that much better.

Team Hakeem for me, that team is built so nice, the only weakness I see if the point guard spot, but overall MJ+Clyde+Hakeem is an unbelievable trio.

Team Wilt probably gets the edge due to their better overall defense.

Why the hell is this team kobe vs. team hakeem? They are not even the best players on their team.

It should be Team Jordan vs. Team Wilt

makes no sense at all.

Lebron >= Drexler
Garnett > Rasheed
Wilt > Hakeem

LeBron hasn't passed Drexlar on the all-time list yet, that's wrong. You can put LeBron's first 5 years vs any of Drexlar's seasons if you want, but overall he still gets the nod by a fair margin.

I'll take team Wilt.

The names of the teams make no sense. Having said that Team Wilt > Team MJ

Yup, how can you put LBJ ahead of Clyde, you can't even think about that. Clyde was easily a top 40 player of all time, LBJ is nowhere near that.

Wilt's team has a decided edge at EVERY starting position except for the 2 guard . . . their weak spot, lol. Team Kobe? HA

Oh and yes, LeBron's peak is already higher than Drexler's peak was . . . both offensively and defensively . . . plus he's playing his natural position, the three.

Even though I said LeBron >= Clyde, I'm not sure he's a better defensive player than Clyde. And while LeBron is better offensively, Clyde was no slouch. We're talking a guy who could get 27 ppg, or 8 rpg, or 8 apg. On good percentages. One who could get 2.7 spg and one who I believe has the second most blocks of any guard in NBA history.

Just think about GP throwing lobs to Kobe and Lebron on the break....And Wilt versus Dream, MJ vs. Kobe. Real tough, can't bet against MJ though, ever.
