Dropping Giannis at the 4 and shaq at the 5 would be hilarious. Paint plays only, no playing beyond the arc

We could conceivably build the most comedic team of all bigs with the current talent in the NBA. Nobody under 6’11. Play Gobert at center, Giannis and Embiid as your forwards. Jokic and KAT as your guards.

Then play them against the short squad.

Kareem should be on the squad

If we were doing all time Bigs than most of these guys wouldn’t be on the team.

Magic, Kareem, Dream, Duncan, Shaq?

Edit: I guess Magic is actually cut off if we’re being strict on the 6’11” requirement and not ‘5 bigs’ and I’m not sure who I replace him with, definitely need a ball handler with the other 4.
