5 players NBA fans would have loved to see pair up with LeBron James

A Chris Paul - LeBron James team-up would have been an exquisite one for fans to watch

The duo of LeBron James and Chris Paul would have been a mouth-watering one for NBA fans.

LeBron James and Chris Paul have been close friends for a very long time, even before the start of their professional careers. And while we have seen how funny their jokes and roasts of each other are, we can only imagine how amazing the two could have been on the court together, if only they played for the same team.

The number of highlight dunks LeBron James would have had from Chris Paul's lobs is just one of the many reasons fans would have absolutely loved to see this team-up.

Apart from that, given the abilities of LeBron James and Paul, if they had been in an NBA team together, perhaps the NBA championship that has eluded the latter for his entire career would have been one he could have won with arguably the greatest player of all time over and over again.

A pairing of Stephen Curry and LeBron James could well have been invincible

Stephen Curry and LeBron James could well have been unbeatable together.

When you put the greatest shooter of all time alongside arguably the greatest player of all time, the only thing you could have got was a potentially invincible team.

Just thinking about an NBA team where Stephen Curry kills the opposition from the outside while LeBron James only makes it worse from the inside is incredibly scary.

NBA fans would have killed to watch the games this team would have played. No matter how good any other team in the NBA could be, we can't see any team beating a pairing of Stephen Curry and LeBron James.

If Kobe Bryant and LeBron James teamed up, they could have been the greatest duo of all time

This team-up could have resulted in countless NBA championships.

A team with Kobe Bryant and LeBron James in it would have had the potential to go down as the greatest team of all time.

Just imagine it: this team would have been favorites to win the NBA Championships for the foreseeable future as soon as these two players would have been put together in it.

Who knows, perhaps this team could have even been the first one ever to win four championships in a row. Alas, we will never know or ever see the damage this team-up could have done in the NBA.
