Message: [QUOTE="MCC, post: 305593, member: 145"] Not a bad selection at all, but I think perimeter shooting is a weakness. I'd swap Bird in for Lebron to fix that. Bird put up Lebron-type numbers in his prime and was a deadly shooter, including at the line. Worth noting is that Wilt sucked at the line. I think his stats were ridiculous, but I don't believe he would have averaged anywhere near 50 a game today. I suspect he would have been the equal of Shaq, maybe better because he was faster / more mobile - hard to say. I like Kareem at the 5 for reasons outlined in my earlier posts - I realize he's not well liked but if we're talking "save the planet" game, I'm going with Cap. Another thought: I wonder if your team might get hurt on the boards. I realize the team has good size overall but Wilt is the only dominant rebounder. Final thought: are Kobe and MJ able to coexist? Two serious alphas with somewhat similar games. [/QUOTE]
