I think the first thing when trying to convert NBA players is to establish the Benchmark (Legendary), both for current and all-time players and start from there.

For current players I would have something like this:

Jump Shot: Durant
Jump Range: Curry
Outside Defense: Kawhi
Handling: Kyrie (?)
Driving: LeBron
Passing: CP3? Lowry? Definitely I wouldn't put Westbrook as Legendary
Inside Shot: Giannis?
Inside Defense: Gobert
Rebouding: Drummond
Shot Blocking: Gobert

What about stamina and FTs? I would probably pick Durant as having the best FT.

Stamina I would say present maybe Jimmy Butler, all-time Wilt Chamberlain (48.5 mpg in one season). FT is Stephen Curry, both present and all-time, as he is the all-time leader in FT%

interesting try to create Kawhi, LBJ and KD...

here is my shot:







Kawhi is way more closer as a shooter to KD than people think... and they had similar style of play, operating from midrange most of the time... both of them are close to a club 50 40 90 (FG, 3pt, FT %)
LBJ shoots far less midrange jumpers, that's why his FG % is usually the best...
Durant is a willing passer, and still can initiate offense slightly better than Kawhi, but both of them cannot match James in passing department...
comparing defense, Kawhi no1, both outside and inside, but Durant not so far behind (and James D is from few years ago)
also, Durant is the best shot blocker, James is known for his specialty (chase down blocks)...
regarding rebounding, James than Kawhi than KD (their career avgs are close)

anyway, who can train these type of players, especially with this height?

I think the most "doable" is Durant. Maybe if you get a 18yo All-Time Great with initial salary of 4k+ and train him since the beggining with Trainer, Youth Trainer and Nutriotinist 7, plus Training Court, maybe is doable...

My take...

Jump Shot: I'm Kevin Durant
Jump Range: Videogame Curry
Outside Defense: Pitbull Beverly
Handling: No travelling Harden
Driving: Eurosteping Giannis
Passing: Honey bear Jokić
Inside Shot: Superman Giannis
Inside Defense: Luka faked me Gobert
Rebouding: Show me the money Drummond
Shot Blocking: Not on my watch Turner

I like this one :D

What about instead of "Not on my watch Turner", "Not in my house Mitchell Robinson or Hassan Whiteside"?

Also, I think Outside Defense put Leonard, Handling put Irving and Inside Shot put Davis or Embiid!

As a Greek you can't say that Davis or Embidd has better inside shot then Giannis. No NBA player dunks more then the Greek Freak! Shame on you ;)

Ahahaha XD

I love and support Giannis but in my opinion his strongest point is his driving ability, his inside shot comes next but I think Davis and Embiid have better moves down the post that Giannis lucks. They are also stronger so they can finish through contact more reliably!
