About This Quiz

You know that the basketball is the coolest sport around, and no one plays it better than the athletes of the NBA. You know a lot about hoops, and if you were able to pick your perfect NBA Dream Team, it would be by far the best team that the world has ever seen.

But who would be on it? Of course, you are going to have Steph Curry, and Lebron James would be on anyone's dream team, but then who would else would you pick to round out your roster? There is no way you wouldn't be able to build a team like this without Russell Westbrook on it; the dude is just way too intense to pass up. 

Kevin Durant has a skill set that anyone would want on their team, and you also are going to need a big down low like Karl Anthony Towns.  Someone has to take care of the ball, so what about Kyrie Irving? You know he has the best handle in the game. And then you are also going to need some guys that don't have big egos to fill out the bench.

The more we think about it, this isn't as easy as we thought. But with you as the General Manager, we know your team is going to be awesome.
