if were forming an all-prophet basketball team with Adam, Abraham, Moses, Krishna, Zoroaster, Buddha, Jesus Christ and Mohammed, who are the starters and what position would they play?
I would have Vishnu as my point guard. Excellent ball handler and passer... I would don't know what position Jesus would play, but I'm pretty sure he would sacrifice himself for the team. Buddha wouldn't make the team. He's too fat. He would make the team a lot of money selling hot dogs. He could make everyone "one with everything." I would Have Moses as guard. He could drive to the basket well. He could easily part a sea of traffic. I wouldn't want Adam on the team wither. I think he would have a "me first" attitude. I would just let the others fight it out for position.
You might not want a chubby Chinese Buddha, but look to the mountains; You probably want a Tibetan Budda Shakyamuni (the present Buddha) on the floor at all times. Since he's often represented in Mahayana Buddhism as having 1,000 arms and 1,000 eyes, I imagine he's got exxcellent court vision and is a pretty ferocious defender. In fact, you could probably put together a five man/woman all tibetan buddhist team of 1000 arm, 1000 eyed players, (Avalokitshvara, a bunch of other bhoddisatvas & deities). Any team that can put 5000 hands in your face at any given time is going to be tough to score on.
