Although the first time Malone fucked up Payton would eat him out and he'd lose any of his confidence. Out of those teams I'd go with the 90s. If you put Payton at PG that's the GOAT defensive team

Are you serious niggah?
The 60s will shit all over the other decade teams.

No one can stop Wilt in offense
Russel will get all the rebounds
Elgin can guard any wing player
West can shoot the lights out off anytime and can defend the wings well with his 6'9 wingspan while being the token white dude in the champions hip team.
Oscar will unleash his triple doubles.
No one will get an easy shot in the paint care of Wilt and Russ's elite defence combined with their 7'2 and 7'4 wingspan respectively.

Other decades are you even trying

Based on those teams, Kidd would probably have 20 assists a game if he went up against westbrook, Love guarding any of the PFs listed besides possibly Mcadoo would be a sight to see, Dwight would get dominated by any of the other centers. Just too many problems for the 10s

00s are first because Kidd/Shaq would be nearly unstoppable.

>>20265718

The St. Louis Hawks' 6-foot-9, 240-pound Zelmo Beaty, for example, found out recently that he can no longer take Chamberlain's great strength for granted. Unable to slow Wilt down with conventional maltreatment, Beaty tried to yank his shorts off. Chamberlain, who can press 400 pounds without breathing hard, makes it a point to control his temper, primarily because he is genuinely afraid he might kill somebody. Beaty's unethical yank, however, was too much. Wilt flicked an arm, and Beaty flew across the floor like a man shot out of a cannon. Referee Mendy Rudolph rushed over to him and said: "For God's sake, stay down, man. Don't even twitch a muscle." Beaty didn't twitch, and he is still active in the NBA.

You already have all that scoring with Wade, Bron and Durant, what the fuck are you putting Westbrooks mediocre passing ass in there? Throw in Nash or Paul. You just need the 1 to run the O and knock down jumpers.

Besides, Nash and Paul are better than Westbrook right now as actual PG's. WB should be at the 2.

so what we're getting at here is westbrook despite having nearly 10% more of having the ball still has less winshares than CP3, along with assists. Don't really want to get into TS% and PER Right now[CP3 is beating him by at least 3.00 in both of those too]. Face it, if Chris Paul and Westbrook swapped teams the clippers would be under .500 and the thunder wouldn't even be in double digit losses

Good on OP to take Kidd instead of Nash for 2000s - Shaw and Duncan is too much mass in the paint to run those D'Antoni high screen/rolls. And Jesus Christ, imagine Kidd on the break with Kobr, Pierce and prime Duncan filling lanes.
But still, Nash gives them another shooter to stretch the floor for Shaw and Duncan, and you could hide him on defense with prime Kobr/Pierce/Duncan...
