Nowadays, seeing superteams in the NBA is no longer a rare instance. Over the last few years, many franchises have tried creating a superteam in hopes of ultimately winning an NBA Championship. While a few have been successful in their quest, others have failed to do so.
Staying on the topic of NBA superteams, fans like to chime in with their own ideas for one from time to time. Even among those imaginary teams, the inclusion of the likes of LeBron James, Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Stephen Curry, etc. is a common occurrence.
Recently, the Twitter page “Real Talk” decided to submit a 7-game series between two superteams. Team one featured Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Michael Jordan, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and Shaquille O’Neal.
On the other hand, their opponents in this scenario are Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant, Magic Johnson, Kevin Garnett, and Wilt Chamberlain.

Both teams have a rather surprising lineup as multiple players of the same position are included in the lineup. Moreover, seeing the trio of MJ, Kobe, and LBJ on the same team will decide the winner for many. But let’s see how NBA fans on Twitter have reacted to this tweet and which superteam will win a 7-game series in their opinion.

The people who pick MJ and Bron's team don't know basketball. Team has no point guard, two shooting guards in the starting lineup, and two bigs who lack skill and are just blunt force objects. Bad team construction.

Team Shaq and Kobe.. Giannis and Shaq would cancel out KG and Wilt.. Lebron vs KD also would likely guard esch other and cancel each other out. its now a matter of Magic+Steph vs MJ+Kobe..

Replace Giannis with Kawhi, and maybe it’ll be an interesting topic.
Y’all going to start putting respect on Kawhi’s name.
4 of the people in this photo he eliminated from even sniffing a 🏆.
Ask LeBron, Steph, KD, Giannis. They know who Kawhi Leonard is.

That's easy. Michael and Kobe would put the locks on Curry man. He wouldn't even get open. Then he would be a major liability on defense. He would get posted up all night long.
The left has 5 Killers in Lebron, Giannis, Jordan, Kobe, and Shaq. They ain't losing.

Too many alphas on the left. More willing passers on the right. I take the more balanced squad.

Left is better at every position so left without a doubt left

There are valid arguments for either side to win in a 7-game series. Although some fans have picked the right side, the overwhelming support has been with the left team. After all, seeing the trio of MJ, Kobe, and LeBron on one side tilts the fixture in their team’s favor.
The only issue they might face will be of managing their egos. If they can manage that in this hypothetical situation, we are sure most people will choose the superteam on the left side to win a series against the right side’s team. Regardless of who wins, it will certainly be a game of the century for fans.
