Former US President Barack Obama will take fans through his greatest NBA ever to start a five-man start.

To be honest, there is no formula to choose the best start five ever since it is a subjective argument.

But in many cases, things like LeBron James and Michael Jordan are automatic choices in such debates.

Well, he recently revealed that he has started his 5 start five, so is that so in the case of former Potus Barack Obama? Let’s look into it.

“I’m going to talk about my favorite start 5. If I’d enjoy watching it and put together a team that beats anyone,” Obama said in 2024.

From one basketball fan to the next, I hope you enjoy it @hgmediaDocusary – Starting 5 – Streaming now @netflix.

Golden State Warriors superstar Stephen Curry changed the way modern basketball games are played with his incredible three-point shooting.

It’s no surprise that the former US president wants to take on the responsibility of point guard in the hypothetical start five.

“I want a little shoot and a little talent, so I put my friend Steph Curry in the mix.

Career statistics: 24.7 ppg, 4.7 rpg, 6.4 APG.

Key praise: 4x NBA Champion, 1x NBA Finals MVP, 2x NBA MVP, 11x NBA All-Stars, 11x All-NBA

Moving forward, Obama chose no one other than Chicago Bulls legend Michael Jordan as his team’s shooting guard.

It was easy for him, especially considering the connections in Chicago. The Curry and MJ backcourt duo are definitely fatal.

“I’m from Chicago. MJ, Michael Jordan, at Shooting Guard,” Obama gave a brief answer.

Career statistics: 30.1 ppg, 6.2 rpg, 5.3 APG

Key praise: 6x NBA Champion, 6x NBA Finals MVP, 5x NBA MVP, 1x NBA DPoy, 14x NBA All-Star, 11x All-NBA

As expected, the five start would not be complete without the presence of LeBron James. After all, there are few players in NBA history who are as effective as King in all positions of the court.

In fact, the key reason Obama chose LBJ was to move the points forward and delegate playmaking duties.

“I’m going to move LeBron to the point,” Obama added. “He’s raised the ball and he’s got to hand out many times. He’s basically doing some of the things he’s done at the Olympics recently, and that’s a pretty good approximation of what Magic Johnson can do.”

Career statistics: 27.0 ppg, 7.5 rpg, 7.4 apg

Key praise: 4x NBA Champion, 4x NBA Finals MVP, 4x NBA MVP, 21x NBA All-Stars, 21x All-NBA

Kevin Durant may use his extra time to engage in social media debates, but the Houston Rockets star has never lost his focus by making life difficult for his court foes.

KD relies on his impressive scoring skills while being extremely efficient. And that’s why Obama wants Durant in his start five.

“I think I have to go with Kevin Durant, especially considering the game today.

Career statistics: 27.2 ppg, 7.0 rpg, 4.4 apg

Key praise: 2x NBA Champion, 2x NBA Finals MVP, 1x NBA MVP, 15x NBA All-Stars, 11x All-NBA

Last but certainly not, five unstoppable start requires an elite centre. According to Obama, the honor belongs to Rockets legend Hakeem Olajuwon.

Former Pottas believes Haekum could become the team’s defense anchor while controlling the paint.

“At the center, we’re going to put Hakeem ‘The Dream’ Olajuwon, and I think that game will lead to today’s game.

“He was a really great athlete and a defense anchor. He’s going to give you everything you need from a central position,” Obama said with confidence.

Career statistics: 21.8 ppg, 11.1 rpg, 2.5 APG

Key praise: 2x NBA Champion, 2x NBA Finals MVP, 1x NBA MVP, 2x NBA DPOY, 12x NBA All-Star, 12x All-NBA
