3 on 3: '12 Lebron/'06 Kobe/'14 Durant vs '87 Magic/'91 MJ/'86 Bird
How would a game of 3 on 3 go between these guys? 1s and 2s to 21, win by 2. Alternating possessions, not make it take it.
Also the years in the title aren't concrete, go by whatever year you think is the player's peak..so maybe 2009 Lebron if you think that was his best, 2003 Kobe who was at or close to his defensive peak, etc.

13' Lebron was a 41% three point shooter. Not sure how 12' Lebron was better at anything. 06' Kobe was chucking on a bad team. I would go 03' for offense and defense or 08' for the whole skill package.
In anycase, Im assuming Lebron would have to guard Magic, Kobe would guard MJ, and Durant would guard Bird.
It would be a shoot out and whichever team is hot is going to win. There isnt much defense to be played here.

None of Kobe, Durant, or LeBron really play that great off the ball. So I think there would be a problem there about who's getting the most shots (probably would have to be Kobe, but that renders Durant's usefulness moot).

Jordans team would win by 7 or more. Lebron would LeCramp in tha middle of tha game.

team lebron in a close game.
Both durant and lebron would have to avoid passing to kobe. Magic is the odd man out here since hes outclassed and bird could be handled by durant. It would literally be lebron/durant vs mj.

At first I was like blowout, but if LeBron/Kobe play lockdown defense, which they can, might make it interesting.. In the end, MJ/Magic/Bird

Durant plays almost exclusively off ball....
When were Magic, Bird, and Jordan considered off ball players?

Magic is the weak link on D , they get torched.
Bird can't stop Lebron or KD.
Kobe would destroy Jordan in 1 on 1, **** who's greater all time. one on one? Kobe is peerless.

MJ, magic, and bird.
If they all played in the style of 1 v 1, then I don't know. Could very well be the young bucks.
But mj Magic and bird have two distinct advantages---
-they're as a group more ferocious competitive
-they have flawless fundamentals in team ball.
Even in 3v3 their team ball would shine. I mean all teams do nowadays is the high pick and roll. Look at this short clip of bird teaching PNR's and many simple variations. (only 2 min long)

The young team would just do basic passing, or individual matchups in their offense. That's why they'd lose.
