How about building a starting 5 of players that never got a ring?

John Stockton or Steve Nash
Reggie Miller or Grant Hill
Elgin Baylor or Dominque Wilkins
Charles Barkley or Karl Malone
Patrick Ewing or Dikembe Mutombo

Could a team of Stockton, Miller, Baylor, Barkley, and Ewing come together to get their elusive first rings all at once?

Or Nash, Hill, Dominique, Malone, Mutombo?

How about a lineup of current players that haven't gotten a ring?

Chris Paul
Jimmy Butler
Luka
Giannis
Embiid (healthy)

That lineup needs more shooting but that's a lot of talent and I'm leaving out Harden who is a generational offensive talent.

I like that. I would have to think about who I would pick.

Maybe switch out Jimmy for Paul George for shooting and still a lot of what Butler brings. George is a really good shooter and probably a better compliment to other guys.

Lineup of current players 22 or younger that once they get older would give an all time group some good competition.

Trae Young or Lamelo Ball
Anthony Edwards
Luka
Zion or Michael Porter jr?
Deandre Ayton
