 Bosh
 Carmelo
 Lebron
 Wade
 Joe Johnson

 This team would have a bad bench for sure.
 It's a crazy hypothetical, The Knicks trade Melo for Dragic, Winslow, and two unprotected future firsts, plus filler Mcroberts.

 They also sign Dellavadova or Ish Smith is a point guard.

 Any chance for that team to win it all if healthy for the playoff's?

In NBA 2K, yes. Not enough balls to go around for that team to work.

and who, exactly, plays defense against the warrior's guards?

Once?  Sure, why not.  4 times?  Not likely.

 Nobody really plays D, they just try to outscore you.

 Really the better question is, would it be good for the NBA. It would be wildly entertaining to watch.

 And I actually would like Carmelo to get one real chance at a ring. He was the best player on that one Olympic team, it was a while ago, but I was truly impressed with him then. The only time also.

I am thinking Bosh is a real risk to retire at this point.  Wade is degenerating.  JJ is degenerating.  They have no bench and really old starters with a lot of miles on them.  I don't see it. 

Most likely scenario is they get to the finals and lose in 5 or 6 games.  There is a decent chance that they don't even make it to the finals, anyway.  I don't really see them as any better than Cleveland now and honestly I think they'd probably be worse given the rigors of a season.  And yes, I know Cleveland is injury prone right now.  I just think that that theoretical Miami team is even more so.

Miami doesn't have enough of anything to trade to NY for Melo. NY will expect a whole lot more for Melo than your proposed trade.

The team you put together couldn't beat GS. Thompson and Curry would score at will and GS actually plays real NBA defense.

They may have some trouble beating father time, too.  No, would be my answer.

nah, too old. GSW will run circles around them. Factoring in age, id rather have Klay or Steph than any other player on that team.

This year's Celts team has a chance. Small chance but as long as Thompson and Curry are slowed down, any team has a chance to win
