What single team from NBA history would you pick for 1 game if the planet's survival depended on them winning ?

Bill Simmons did a thing on this called his wine cellar team, where he had to pick players from certain years and try to mesh them all together (for example, ‘92 MJ). There’s a great video on this on YouTube. But if it’s just in general......

For my team: Curry (best shooter) Jordan (best player) Durant (probably the best scorer) James (provides some space, more playmaking, best all-around player) Duncan (some spacing, doesn’t need the ball to be effective)

Bench Thompson (shooting) Shaq (sub for KG, absolutely unstoppable) Magic (can play 1-4, best playmaker ever) Bird (best competitor, shooter) Kawhi (defense) Bryant (pure scoring and competitive, probably our “super sub” Paul George (defense, good shooter)

Coach: Pop and Brad Stevens

If chemistry is a problem, take out Shaq and Kobe and you can replace them with someone like Garnett and Pierce, who are much more team oriented player........
