I would have to go with either 5 Jordan's or 5 Lebrons. Jordan is a better player, but I think Lebron may be able to match up a little better with the big and the little guys.
 
if we are saying the players are being looked at as to how dominant they were in the prime of their career then the Big O and MJ would be far ahead. I dont know that Lebron could shoot well enough to make the others play him honest and has he really shown any post up game? I dont think he would thrive in a full court game full of 5 mj's.. i would put 5 magics over 5 Lebrons..

But as someone said you make it 5 on 5 half court and give Wilt someway to dribble it a bit how would the others stop him in the post?

Durant could be interesting to watch though i dont think he plays much D either.
 
I think Oscar would be too small for MJ/Lebron. Durant isn't a great defender, and I've never been super impressed with his ball handling. He's got 3-4 inches on Jordan, and about 2 on Lebron, but I think he would have much more trouble scoring on those 2 than the other way around.
 
5 Magics came to my mind right away - what he did in his first NBA championship finals replacing Kareem in game 6 was unbelievable.
 
Lebron is the only player that can match up with every other player. His athleticism (power, size, speed, ups) is only rivaled by wilt.

However, if Wilt were developed today, a team of five modern wilts would win in a landslide (unless of course they played a team of five russells).
 
I can not judge Oscar as I do not remember him as a player, just what I read. For my money it is Jordan or Magic, but I give the edge to Jordan.
