    It's funny that most of the comments say Howard, but the votes say Kobe. I'm with Kobe on this one.

    5 Kobes would all demand to be traded by the end of the game because their teammates won't give them enough touches.

    this is a no-brainer.

    Kobe plays for 48 minutes a game, while Dwight plays 8 minutes, at most.

    5 Howards will move too slow and give too much space for Kobes to hit jump shoots.

    Team Kobe is a small team. Team Dwight is a post-up team. Thus, Team Kobe would do a lot of doubling in the post. To counter doubling in the post, you need floor spacing. I somehow feel like stationing 3 Dwight Howards around the perimeter isn't the most effective floor spacing. Meanwhile, Kobe may not be finishing inside with 5 Dwights, but he can still create space to get off about whatever he wants from midrange. So Team Kobe wins pretty easily.

    How about 5 Barkleys v 5 Kobes.

    Debate.

    So we have come to the conclusion that 5 DH will end up playing netball and 5 Kobes would destroy the earth.

    This is a stupidly interesting question. who is coaching the 5 Dwights...El Stan Van?

    Anyhow, getting the ball up the court would be a challenge. He'd have to station a Dwight close to the ball, a Dwight around half court, and two Dwights near the basket I think and try to lob the ball in, but the 5 kobes would probalby pick off a fair share of the passes. It would all come down to practice time. If the 5 Dwights could practice the lob lob lob strategy enough they could develop some timing.

    Are you the same guy who asked about dunking from the 3 point line and dribbling between the legs is pointless?

    Just stop...

    5 Kobe's can move the ball and set themselves up.

    5 Howards will have to learn to play keep away with high passes and I don't think they can keep it up for that long before dropping the ball.

    But the better question is how bad 5 Howards would lose to 5 Lebrons, 20 points? 35?

    Complete destruction of the city they are playing in, along with a generation of kids scarred by the amount of trash talk and insults lobbed within the state they played in.

    The ball that the match was played with would be lost for all time because one player would wind up taking it and going home.

    Who would win in a fight: 1,000,000 babies or 1 Dwight Howard?

    Haha. I just may. I'd probably have to change it to toddlers though.
