Is that a question? I actually do like lebron i just dont think hes the greatest ever. Apparently you can't truly like anyone on here unless u think they're the goat.

Take ice ice cream for instance. Strawberry is probably my least favorite out of all the flavors but i still really like it.

As far as the set up question i just like bugging bron stans. Facts and common sense drives them absolutely crazy. Imagine thinking literally every great player ever dosnt win by joining a top 5 scorer and top 10 scorer.

Yeah they lose. Miller, Kemp and Barkley wouldn't have been enough. Kawhi, Dame and Siakam can't beat the Lakers.

so reggie with no other top 10 scorer took mj to 7 but millee with barkley and kemp wouldn't be able to win? I disagree. I also dont think lakers are beating kawhi with siakam and dame. The slight edge that bron and ad woukd have iver siakam and kawhi is more than made up with dames presence.

Pretty ironic to hear that from you when the lakers got swept twice in their first two h2h meetings with the clippers earlier in the season, not to mention the raptors have won in the staples as well.

When was Kemp a top 10 scorer? This guy is comically overrated 25 years later. He was top 20 in scoring exactly once (12th).

Just need me a Pippen and Rodman. Then I can coast on defense

He wasnt i was trying to find someone with a similar impact and size to bosh in the 90's. Using drob or hakeem wouldn't have been fair. That said kemp was starting to become elite before the coke and weight gain.

so all you need is draymond and who? I really dont know anyone with pips game now. A long elite defender with a decent offensive game. Kawhi seems like a ok comparison as far as size, length and defense but kawhi ia considerably better offensively.

OP, it depends. Is the team a good fit? Chemistry? Coaching? Age? Talent? Supporting cast? Regression?

There is a lot of factors when winning basketball games.

For example, you have Peak Shaq (#8 all time scorer in the NBA, not ABA) and you have a 37 year old Elvin Hayes (#10 scorer, NBA) & 35 year old Kobe Bryant (#4 scorer, NBA) surrounding by a supporting cast consisting of Jamario Moon, Matt Caroll, Yogi Ferrell, Alonzo Gee, Luke Walton, Brian Skinner, and Darius Miles...

Is that team going to win a championship? I highly doubt it. Peak Shaq is really awesome to have on a contending team but do you seriously think that this Big 3 (2 that are a former shell of themselves) and a ragtag supporting cast is going to win a chip?

I also have to remind that a team needs some time to get acclimated to each other and mesh together.

And the head coach is going to be Johnny McCarthy (coached the Buffalo Braves in 1972) whose career record as a coach is 22-59. Let's assume Johnny is a rookie coach as the case in 1972 so yeah...

People just overrate every 90's stars scoring on ISH (with one exception :oldlol: ).

Kemp was 3x all-NBA, Bosh 1x. Kemp at his peak was better. He just didn't last while Bosh did.

While things were different way back in 2012, just imagine the trio of durant, harden and westbrook rn.

All have become scoring champions in their respective careers already as of this day.

The 1994 Bulls could swap Pete Myers for Klay and still win a chip. Klay is MJ impact on 90s Bulls and in 2010s he is a solid piece but he is no MJ. In the 90s he would be.

Did you really just say klay is as impactful as mj? Dont get me wrong klay is hella underrated on that warriors team but hes no mj in any era. Hes extremely limited offensively so it all depends on what kind of system hes in. He needs a system with a shit ton of screens and movement so i actually agree the bulls wouldn't be a bad fit with the triangle. Problem is without mj theres no stress on the defense. They dont have to worry and focus on one guy so theres never any reason to help, double or overload the defence so everyone can stay home on their man. Come playoff time and especially finals Klay wouldn't get a whole lot of good looks and he cant create his own shot that well so i disagree. Theyd e a contender though and they moat likely make the finals that year. Houston beats them though. They'd b the better team and they had the pieces to gaurd both pip and klay. I dont see anyway they win that series
