I think something along the lines of "Five Leaf Clover" would work
I'm bitter.

The Rogues

For anyone who has ever seen "The Warriors" movie from 1979, the Rogues are the gang that goes after the Warriors. The character Luther, has the infamous line of "Warriors, come out to play-i-ay".

excellent movie trivia question and answer with the Rogues/Luther.  TP

wouldn't use it for this group though since the Rogues get crushed in the end.

I'll admit, the fact that the Rogues get crushed at the end, does ruin the nickname. However, I also love the idea of being able to say that line, especially once the playoffs start.

How about "The Greatest Starting Lineup of All-Time."

It's a little long, but I like the ring of it.

Or "The 2019 NBA Champion Boston Celtic Starting 5"

Again, it's a little wordy, but it rolls off the tongue.
