Defense counts as well.

Shaq was completely unstoppable in his prime and an elite defender. You don’t need play aking ability of Jokic with magic/Lebron/bird/whomever

In todays game I do agree Shaq wouldn’t fit as well but in all time status he’s way higher than Jokic

Very good, but only one top five player.

PG - Magic
SG - Lebron
SF - Bird
PF - Duncan
C - Abdul-Jabbar

Five of the top eight players to ever play were still remaining after your list. I'll take it.

people saying shaq shouldn't be in anyone's list never saw Shaq play. It was like he was from a different planet, or like he was an adult playing against toddlers

All time, meaning playing in any era?

Well, I want Bird and Jordan. Killers

Kareem (Goat resume, dominated CBB in the 60s, Pros in the 70s and still a force in the Showtime Lakers in the 80s. He has the best resume to play in any era. Dude was consistent money to give you 25 points a night and rebounds.

Kareem
Jordan
Bird

Then another great shooter and your PG of choice.

Bird and Kareem are gonna be around the board getting putbacks and rebounds, don't need another power forward.
Whoever said Rodman, he's irrelevant in this era because his greatest attribute is nullified and he couldn't score.
