If they played tonight, 4 on 4 or 5 on 5, at their current age, who would win. I think that would be a good pre game, first team to 15 wins.
Who wins? Magic is in shape but looks more like a PF (even though he did before aswell). Bird's jump shoot would be killer since I believe most players would be unathletic, and Kareem looks like he still got moves.

I smell a "weekend at bernie" ish scenario...hilarity ensues when worthy gets called for a charge while johnson is just standing there being held up by bird and parish...
