What's your NBA super team? (Current players only)

in basketball •  7 years ago  (edited)

My friends and I have been having discussions (okay arguments), about the perfect NBA lineup that would dominate.

This isn't accounting for cap space, or any other ways that the players wouldn't be able to play together like contracts.

You don't have to follow the traditional setup of guard, forward, center, or anything. If you think 5 centers would dominate, put their names, and why.

Players do have to be in the NBA right now though.

My personal dream team:

Point Guard: Kyrie Irving

  • The handling, the scoring ability, what more could you want?

Shooting Guard: Klay Thompson

  • The catch and shoot ability, along with the defense and driving ability, I think Klay and Kyrie would be good together.

Small Forward: Kevin Durant

  • Scoring machine, his ability to score is also insane along with Kyries. A 7 footer being able to play like him is legendary.

Small Forward: Lebron James

  • I mean come on, he's unstoppable. Scoring, passing, being able to play every position?

Center: DeMarcus Cousins

  • Just an absolute monster. I was debating between him and Anthony Davis, but I learned towards DeMarcus.

My lineup has 4 tall players also which in my opinion can only help, as they're still pretty fast. I think they'd work pretty good.

Although not everyone will agree with me, this is a lineup I'd like to see, although I know it won't happen. If you don't think this would work please explain why I'd love to see others opinions on this. Also please post your "super team" and maybe some explanations on why you chose them.

Was thinking maybe changing Kyrie to John Wall, but I feel like John Wall would want the ball even more than Kyrie.

PG: Steph Curry
SG: James Harden
SF: Kawhi Leonard
PF: LeBron James
C: Anthony Davis

Literally nobody beats that team.

PG: Steph Curry
SG: James Harden
SF: Kawhi Leonard
PF: LeBron James
C: Anthony Davis

With Harden handling the ball and playmaking, with Curry's Outside Shots, with Leonard's defense to shut down other teams star player, LeBron's versatility, and Davis to man the post. I think this team will be unstoppable

Small Forward: Kawhi Leanord
Power Forward Lebron James
Center Anthony Davis
Shooting Guard James Harden
Point Guard Chris Paul

Championship! lol

I wanted Kawhi on my team to, but I couldn't bring myself to put him over Bron or KD.
