How good are these guys? Love the talent. But I don't like the blend. I think the total is less then the sum of the parts. Just stating the obvious Wade, James and Rose all control the ball on there respective teams. How much is Rose really going to contribute when Wade and James are holding the ball. Almost be better off with a good spot up shooter instead of Rose. Do they trade Rose?

Once a team had Hakeem, Barkley and Pippen and they got nothing done.

Once a team had West, Chamberlain, Baylor

Only won it all once.

lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.

Very good. But not unbeatable good. For instance with a healthy Bynum LA would be a tough match up.
And I think there is a large potential for ego clashes to mess with their potential success.

That's true different error. But in some ways having a team with multiple super stars was easier back then. Coaches and owners had more power and player's ego were easier to keep in check.

Kobe and Shaq had a great run but eventually the egos clashed. Could be Chicago would have a similar run but I'm not convinced. None of these guys are as valuable on a team where they aren't controlling the ball. I can seen James shooting less and distributing but then what's Rose's roll. And Chicago would have nice big men but would have some vulnerability against talented bigs.

Old old & old again. Baylor didn't even play the year they won - due to injury . . . and retirement!

Some of you guys just don't understand how good wade and james are. They average about 14-15 assists between them and would love to make it 20 if they had the players around them. they average around 57 points between them and could make it 70 - but would would be happy with 45 again with the right players around them.

Rose is a phenomenal talent. Who would fit like a glove with those two.

It would be a stupendous orchestra to watch.

I'd rather watch wade, james and gallinari.

Rose is a great talent that's why I can't see him being happy in a much diminished role. I don't think it's a good fit.
