Who you got? Non-Lakers seem a little undersized but have much better shooting.
If we are already using a super hypothetical situation, why can't we also put LeBron (CLE) on the other squad?

So you'd want the Lakers version of Bron on one team and the Cavs version of Bron of the other. OR the same exact player on both teams?

I for one, wouldn't even PUT LeBron on the Lakers squad. I get he won a ring there but I just don't think of him as a Laker. But I understand why he belongs.
But to answer your question, in this already 100% fictional world, I would have 2020 Lakers LeBron on team 1 and 2009 CLE LeBron on Team 2 playing against each other.

I also "get" the POV of those that don't WANT to see Steph there. Based on the time, it just seems like he is too current to be included with that team.
But, he belongs whether folks like it or not.
Zeke also belong.
Your choice.

Honestly... couldn’t you make the argument for having KD over Bird?

Any team with MJ getting the nod from me.
Hakeem is putting Shaq in the torture rack
Kareem gets a slight edge over Timmy
Larry will mentally defeat Bron
MJ Kobe(RIP) MJ gets the nod
Magic abuses StephVP on offense, then gets PNR’d to death on the other end. 3’s are more than 2’s advantage Steph.

I'd put 09 Bron over Duncan, not Bird though. Shooting is what gives that non-Lakers team a chance and losing Bird only leaves you with Steph as an elite shooter.
BIG FISH
has a point adding prime KD over Bird or Duncan. Still think I'd lean towards replacing Duncan though.

You swap out Tim for KD and replace Larry with Miami Bron and non-lakers definitely win

I wouldn’t replace Duncan. I can’t imagine replacing the most fundamentally sound big in history.

The need for spacing is what I had in mind.

Spacing on that Lakers team is trash
Honestly would rather start AD than Kareem/Shaq
And Magic and Bron are obviously redundant, maybe start Jerry West in place of one of those two?

This. Offensively the spacing on the Lakers team is atrocious but defensively that's not a paint I'm trying to be in.
Good thing 3 > 2. Replace Tim with KD and the team already has a much better chance of winning.
Replace Bird with Bron and sacrifice a little shooting for better defense and passing and PnR your way to victory.
