I'd have Curry/Duran in the LeBron tier and Green/Thompson at $5.

So $24 for those 4

The way to beat that team would be by getting really good big men.

LeBron
DMC
Adams
Jrue
Batum

I think that's 15 exactly. You gotta have 2 big guys who can defend on the perimeter and rebound, if you play small ball I'm not sure if anyone could keep up

I would think so. Adams is a steal at $1. Not sure where to go with the 2nd though

I went the same as OP, except Bradley instead of Crowder

Avery Bradley
Khris Middleton
Paul George
LBJ
Steven Adams

First, I believe the team with the best single player wins series more times than not. Lebron is the only guy on the planet capable of being better than both Steph and KD

Second, I need long wings who can slow KD and Klay while LBJ embarrasses Draymond again. Enter Middleton and George. Bradley defends Steph better than anyone, all while being able to spot up and knock down as LBJ and PG13 create. Adams cleans everything up on both ends and offers rim protection to

I'd take my squad in 5 or 6, as Steph chokes again and Durant fades under the pressure

Lebron - 7
Conley - 2
Porzingis - 2
Middleton - 2
Batum - 1

With a $1 to spare.

Just a quick shot at the game without much thought.

Has length, defensive ability, shooting, passing, perimeter and interior defense. Can switch out the arse too. Play big and small.

Solid upside as well. Porzingas and Middleton are still years away from their peak.

Lebron - $7
Westbrook - $5
Steven Adams - $1
Nic Batum - $1
Tristian Thompson - $1

Adams and Thompson both gave the Warriors lots of problems. Westbrook and Lebron get to the basket at will and Batum is your spot up shooter.

I also wanted to see what kind of lineup I could make spending $12 on my first two players

ETA: It would be so much fun to watch a Lebron/Westbrook tandem going at the Warriors
