The basketball gods have smiled down upon us on this day. They've granted us a lavish luncheon with seven living NBA legends of our choosing.

Putting guys like Kobe Bryant, Michael Jordan and Oscar Robertson at the table might seem like the way to go, simply because they're three of the best players to ever grace the game, but their serious countenances and morose personalities may not make for the most pleasant company.
