MJ, LeBron, Kobe? Skip & Shannon list their All-Time Starting 5 for one game only | NBA | UNDISPUTED 

Skip and Shannon: UNDISPUTED I got two. 1st Five - ‘87 Magic, ‘93 Jordan, ‘13 LeBron, ‘04 Kobe and ‘01 Shaq. 2nd Five - ‘16 Curry, ‘01 Iverson, ‘86 Bird, ‘06 Wade and ‘05 Duncan or ‘11 Dirk

Aaron Smash Yeah he’s the 🐐 no doubt 😂😂

Skip and Shannon: UNDISPUTED Yo Skip, Kobe was pretty ball-dominant himself. He turned Ramon Sessions and Steve Nash into spot-up shooters.

mj hakeem duncan to me are obvious perfect basketball two way high iq versatile defensive unselfish minded stars at their peaks to put together no debate multiple finals mvps for a reason from these 3 mvps….duh..but then we got to think about fit during a season and while bron and kobe may be better players than klay and bird I think they fit better off ball then say a bron kobe or even kd would so I would have klay an bird next to them instead and my team would have literally no weaknesses on either end....imagine klay and bird playing in the corners wings standing still coming off screens on opposite sides of the floor from duncan and hakeem lol with mj passing them the ball while one cuts to the rim the other for a shot....like the nba would not know how to guard that....obviously bron in transition and d is better than bird and curry is a better scorer than klay but two ways?..i take klay actually over curry as a 5th option mind you on this all star team since he knows how to score without having the ball in his hands like steph has or kd or kobe did....or bron...its just facts ...bigs like shaq wilt russell have weaknesses guarding smaller shooters and players so to me I dont want so give me 2 guys who can shut anyone down...there is only 1 ball and you have to defend another teams best 5 players right?...to me this 5 some just fits the best in terms of an actual system....obviously in terms of talent klays not on this level and I think brons better than bird as a talent being so much more versatile and kareem may be better than hakeem

Hakeem, MJ, Magic, Bird, and Duncan is the best lineup. Lebron can play in a system, and Kobe was able to at least be coached by Phil Jackson. If LeBron could play off ball, he would be a good fit. If you have MJ, you don't need Kobe.

Kobe doesn't need the ball at all time he just shoots the ball all the time. But he wouldn't have to do that with mj

Kyle Brown bro Kobe once had the highest usage rate ever recorded in nba history

Kobe won 3 chips with Shaq...he can win without having the ball

New York Knicks lmfao I'm dead man you know he wanted to

Great list

Hahaha

When I read it I said It like shannon Sharpe lol

The other teams would literally just leave the court

Why not 91 Jordan?

1988 MJ was athletically the best but 1992 MJ would be better because of his increased strength, jump shooting and general game awareness and playoff experience along with athleticism

@Show Genius ur only saying that because u like lebron.

Show Genius Why not? Magic and LBJ are very similar. Team USA have similar players every year.

But mj and lebron would be better 100%

@@sakinrobinson5974 Nah he said that because MJ and Kobe are selfish heroball chuckers Jordan was just fortunate enough to have guys on him most nights that weren't athletic enough to make it out of the d league by today's standards so he was effective enough when surrounded by multiple all defensive and selfless team oriented players to win in his watered down expansion era. Now if you have two of these guys on the same team taking whatever shot they want vs a team willing to move the ball around and find a better look over time (say, the duration of a game) the team of all time greats that doesn't have the combination of Jordan and Kobe will likely lose to the team that only has one of those two guys on their team.

Good picks......except for Kobe

@@franknice187 I picked Kobe mostly for defense. I have enough scoring. He's tied for 2nd all time in defensive player selections. Plus he knows the triangle so he will fit in nicely with MJ.

@@stickybunnn Lebron is a strong love or hate player. Love him for his godly regular season stats and ability to take any team to the finals. Or hate him for not being a clutch player, with a strong mentality to winning more titles.

@@TheLivedeath LeBron is a clutch player (higher percentage with clutch shots than MJ and Kobe in the playoffs.) Strong mentality? He’s been scrutinized under a microscope since he was 16 years old as he was chosen to be the next face of the league before entering it. Being able to lead your team from a 3-1 deficit requires strong leadership. Winning more titles? Half of his career has been in the finals and only one loss can be blamed for him. He has all the intangibles you mentioned and more. Also, when you say godly regular season stats does that not apply to the playoffs? Because he has better playoff averages than Jordan and Kobe.

@@immortal8447 Hope u are joking lol. Jordan has higher playoff ppg than LeBron. Even KD, Jerry West and Allen Iverson beat him in ppg. LeBron is not even in top 50 rebounders per game in playoffs despite his size.

Larry 4 0r 5 Wilt (Chamberlain would dominate SHaq, Rodman, Malone, Duncan - anyone you want to put in here.... Wilt could shut them down.

@@johnbritt6594 No room for Kobe in the starting 5: Jordan, Magic, Larry, Wilt, Kareem . . . Kobe won titles during a softer era than Jordan or the guys in the 50s to 90s.

Facts! And they always scream

Steven A has never educated anyone on anything. You have never heard that clown even try to talk X's and O's. He's an entertainer, nothing more.

FINALLY bird gets some respect

That's my starting 5 too

lebron over bird

I'd say lebron over bird, simply because of the passing ability, and the sheer dominance on the offensive end. Because lebron is basically a bigger stronger faster magic Johnson. So what do you need bird for, besides his three point shooting which is far better than lebron's. Otherwise, perfect lineup.

@@paulh.9937 For starters Lebron, like Bird, are great passers, but no where near Magic’s level. Adding Lebron would further ruin the spacing on the court which is why I’d take Bird. Also, having both Lebron and Magic together would render either man useless when they don’t have the ball in their hands as they both are not off ball players and extremely ball dominant.

@Broadstreet Flyers95 That's a pretty good idea I think. I think in general the PF position has just been weaker than the other 4 at the top, though there's been many great ones.

@Broadstreet Flyers95 I think you're probably right. I'd probably then take Magic at PG, Jordan at SG, and LeBron at SF. I'd want to have Bird, Kareem, Shaq, Kobe, and even Curry on the roster as well.

@Broadstreet Flyers95 Fair enough, I was just going off who I think the best at each position are though. Perhaps throw Bird in instead

Hahaha ur so right

That actually makes sense

How is LeBron a pg?

@@jerome3684 He is listed as a PG this year and leads the league in assists.

@@Andrew-3445 yeah that actually makes sense especially because this team is full of potential missmatches you need litteraly 4 Scottie Pippens and 1 good defensive center if you dont want a missmatch

Caz Miller Switch Duncan with Lebron and it’s perfect. Duncan contributed way more to winning then Lebron ever will

Steve Lerr wtf did I just read 😂😂

nah that wouldn't work. Lebron wouldn't stand a chance defending any of the all-time pf's. You'd either have to take Kobe or Jordan out and put Lebron at sf or take Lebron out entirely and replace him

@@jacobisaiballadareszelaya1984 Whoa he was able to defend a 37 year-old Tim Duncan? Unless you're talking about when Tim Duncan swept him in the finals. Giannis doesn't count as an all-time PF in this era. He's more of a point-forward like Lebron is. When I say all-time PF's I mean the old-timers like Malone who would absolutely destroy Lebron in the post and rebounding.

Mr. Bacon they’re 1 inch within each with 10 pounds difference. I doubt Malone will have it that easy. Bron can space out the floor as well as play inside. I see this a fair match-up. I love TD but I am taking Bron at any position over TD any day of the week.

Damn that’s some tough defense

not fair

Damn, two killers, a versatile PG, a fundamental PF, and the most versatile Center all time.

Jon Davis: Lebron is definitely not Top 5 over Magic: Magic won in college. Magic went to a Laker team his rookie year, took over in the final game when Kareem was injured..... won the FINALS playing center. Magic could play all 5 positions. Magic was the NBA assists leader til Stockton.. Lebron was never a winner - till later in his career: Not in college, not in the pros at the beginning (Lebron always losing to Boston till he went to Miami.... and even stacking the deck with Free Agents, Lebron still choked vs. the Mavs in 2011). Lebron is not top 5 when you have Wilt, Kareem, Larry, MJ and Magic. Then you have to consider Duncan, Elgin Baylor,Oscar Robertson.... Lebron has all types of advantages of modern science and still messes up.
