To the old heads and massive basketball junkies here. Was MJ so good at his peak you would rather have him than any two superstars at the time? For example would a team rather have MJ than a Hakeem and Barkley at their peaks?

    depends on the superstars, i’d take just mj over for example. the harden x dwight duo houston had. or the kyrie x luka duo(obviously haven’t seen in full effect yet). just depends on the caliber of superstars.

      Kyrie has never been a super star level talent and Dwight was nowhere close to that level on the Rockets

        i’ve seen people call both of them superstars on this sub and on twitter that’s not my personal distinction personally i was speaking broadly. i did see someone call rockets dwight a superstar on twitter like a week ago (i agree he wasn’t one at the time but he was a top center)
