Personally, I'd say:

PG: LeBron - basically a better Magic SG: Mike - obviously SF: Bird - one of a kind combo of scoring, hustle, team play, and making all the in between plays PF: Timmy - best team player ever while dominant both ways C: Olajuwon - better spacing than Shaq with incredible defense and scoring dominance.

Steph Jordan Bird Lebron Shaq or Steph Jordan Lebron KD Shaq

Steph and Shaq’s gravity in their respective areas are too important imo and I think they’re the two players that should be built around even though I think MJ and Bron are better overall players. So I think they should be complemented by the top playmaking two-way superstars in history.

Jordan and Lebron are both arguably the top two best cutters in history and are phenomenal playmakers so there’s no issue with them playing off ball. Bird’s also one of the best playmakers ever and can defend and shot to help either Shaq or Steph. KD as an added option over Bird in case the team needs improved spacing/off-ball movement and length
