Who would win this match-up? You get to mix and match starters and bench if you want
Note: I left out some of the younger all-time greats like Jokic and Giannis who would be loyalists, since it’s early enough that they’re not guaranteed to be loyalists (obviously seems very likely though). Steph was the one active loyalist that I allowed since at the age of 35, it seems extremely unlikely he’ll get to 3+ teams before he retries

Moses Malone?
loyalists for sure. strong mismatches at the guard positions and just a better composed team
Idk, Steve Nash with KD and Shaq would be stupid.
D-Wade only played for the Heat what is this heresy
hahaha. Chicago and Cleveland. for like 1000 minutes.
Is d wade really a mercenary ? He was old
Make the teams in 2k and simulate a 31 game series.
kg playing 12 years for the hellhole that was the timberwolves disqualifies him from mercenary status
Well for the loyalists, all-time you have the 1st and 2nd best PGs and SGs, 2nd best SF, the best PF, and 3 top 5 Cs. Pretty easy choice
Easy win for the loyalists
Loyalists to put down the Mercenaries rebellion
Chris Paul isn’t a mercenary
More of a joint that is passed around.
