Portland would be a good example with Drexler and co.

The thing Phil had going for him was that he had, arguably, the three best players ever at their respective positions in Jordon, Shaq, and Kobe. Other teams may have been loaded, but they didn't have the best players in the world.

IMO the the best five ever:
Point - Magic
Two - Jordon
Three - Kobe(technically a two)
Four - Bird
Five - Shaq(Wilt would be the sentimental choice)
