The 5 I would choose, would be

LeBron James - 6'8"
Larry Bird - 6'9"
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar - 7'2"
Magic Johnson - 6'8"
Michael Jordan - 6'6"

Players to consider: Wilt, Kareem, Shaq, Olajuwon, Duncan, Dirk, Malone, Elgin Baylor, Bird, LeBron, Durrant, Jordan, Kobe, West, Big O, Magic, Curry. Some may add Russell, Garnett, Barkley.

I'll go:
Wilt
Bird
Kobe
Jordan
Curry

I’m no millennial and I do believe LBJ is the GOAT

The only variance I accept is depending on how you want to play.

Jordan
Magic
James
Bird
One of Kareem, Russell, or Duncan

That’s the modern lineup. If you wanted to be super big, then you’d throw another big guy in there instead of James, Magic, or Bird.

 

[Hoskins91]

I could see Curry in there as well, but that would be it.
