Team 2, easily.
I mean sure, team one has Nash who is pretty much unguardable and LeBron is LeBron, but.... HELLO
Call him the big Picasso cause prime Shaq owns the paint.
Billups can post up Nash ALL DAY LONG.
Carmelo the true scoring champion is very underrated playing in Denver, he's among the best % at hitting game winning shots, he's clutch in the 4th quarter.
Barbosa may hit more shots per game, but Manu does more things to help his team win. And he hits shots when they count the most- he is clutch.
Lamar Odom is a tough matchup for team 2, but KG is an even tougher matchup going the other way. And Both Lamar and LeBron frequently suffer from that "here, YOU take the shot" disease. Can you imagine a 2-man game with those guys? LOL
Joe Johnson?!?! What, no Gilbert Arenas?
But never mind that, just dump the ball in to a spry Shaq, guarded by... who? Little Penny? :)

There is a total of 8 rings, 2 gold medal, and 3 bronzes in the bottom team, and the team on the top has 2 bronzes.
I'd pick the team on the bottom in prime condition... hell, that team together now would still destroy the team on the top.
And a prime Shaq and a prime Garnett, I don't even think the 1997 Bulls can take them both on! Can Rodman defend both of them at the same time???

the second team by far....steve nash and leandro barbosa are good gaurds but you gotta remember barbosa and nash couldnt contain tony parker let alone manu...chauncey is better than parker so that defeats that purpose
we all know that carmello is better than lebron james even though lebron has made the finals (remember people he plays in the east) kevin garnett has won an mvp and could possibly have made the finals against detroit if they didnt come up short against the lakers and i dont think joe johnson is the guy to cover him maybe if you had tim duncan then i would disagree but you dont.
....but the MAIN thing you have to look at is who is at center...come on man next to bill russel and wilt, shaq is the greatest center of all time, then you want him to be in his prime...and matched up against lamar???? thats like putting sebastian telfair against kobe!!!! shaq in his prime was the most dominating center ever!!!! he won three titles in his prime and could have 4 in his prime (although he had to play the bulls in the finals not exactly an easy task when one of the guys on the other team is Micheal Jordan) so if you ask me if the second team was an actual team then they would be my choice to win every year...

That's rediculous. Team 2 of course. Not only do they have the size, but then you want to add Shaq IN HIS PRIME. Not only would that be a blowout it's not even fair. Plus not a single person on Team 1 plays defense. This is a joke right?? Put Jordan (in his Prime) on team 1 and it MAY be a little closer.

The second team would win in most cases. The only way they would lose if the first team was extremely hot.
Reason why: Shaq. Nobody on the first team can guard him. Even if they doubled team, any of the other four could knock down an open shot.
While Nash would be able to hook people up with nice looks, the defensive presence of KG and Shaq would force the first team to resort to outside shots, which is why they would lose the game.

the team of kevin garnett will win... coz the team is so balanced.... even does the latter team but as u know KG is in great form this time with highest percentage of rebounds than any other....
on the other hand stve nash is a plus poit for the latter but i think billups is a good answer to him....
and carmelo can give good fight to lebron.....
u've also included shaq!!....
but the plus point the second team is Kevin......

team 2 mayne.. steve nash is the best at his postition but chauncey is talanted too.. ginoboli has too much speed and you've got the best power forward in the league in Garnett and the greatest center ever: Shaq.. in his prime.. omg it would be a slaughter..
