Everyone in the NBA loves making their all-time starting fives. Whether it’s fans, journalists, or the players themselves, the imagination required to make a team like this excites everyone.
Kevin Durant recently put together his team featuring LeBron James, Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, himself, and Hakeem Olajuwon. This is a lethal squad, especially with James as the point guard. Shaquille O’Neal was snubbed for Olajuwon, but even the legendary Lakers’ big man had no complaints against the squad KD built.
“Hell of a team right here.”
This would be one of the hardest all-time fives to stop. James may be the all-time leading scorer in league history, but his playmaking will be exactly what this team needs. He can set MJ, Kobe, and KD up perfectly to put their scoring arsenal on full display. James will still be their leading transition scorer, provided we are taking everyone in their prime version.
Prime Hakeem is arguably the greatest defensive center in league history, with Bill Russell being the only one he can be compared to. He revolutionized big-man offense with his silky post-game, something that even Shaq knows can beat a franchise.
Kevin Durant Trying To Play On Modern Teams With All-Time Teammates
Kevin Durant has one of the greatest former teammates list in league history, given his time with the Oklahoma City Thunder, Golden State Warriors, Brooklyn Nets, and now Phoenix Suns. While the star often gets hate for switching teams as often as he has, it’s unnecessary, given every player should and will look out for their personal interests before anything else.
The James Harden experience where he wasn’t given the contract he could’ve gotten last summer by the Philadelphia 76ers after he took a pay cut to help the team build out a roster shows that players can’t ever trust franchises too much. The Suns have done everything in their power to make themselves competitive, even with a top-heavy roster.
Durant didn’t get to play much in the regular season last year, averaging 26.0 points, 6.4 rebounds, and 3.5 assists in eight appearances. With Beal also on the floor, it’ll be interesting to see what KD can do.
