C = Bill Russell (sorry Shaq)
PF = Tim Duncan (sorry Karl)
SF = Larry Bird (sorry Scottie)
SG = MJ (who else?)
PG = Magic Johnson, Jr.

But if I were to choose 5 players for today's game at the peak of their abilities, here are my choices;
C = Shaq
PF = Kevin Garnett
SF = Scottie Pippen
SG = MJ
PG = Magic
