In celebration of the 2021 NBA Finals - this years finalist being the Milwaukee Bucks Vs the Phoenix Suns - we here at Suuuper Anime podcast decided to do a podcast where we would build our NBA Finals team however using anime characters of course!
Why not listen to the podcast here, while reviewing the team! You can listen to the reasons behind why we chose certain players to play certain positions. This way you can have all the information before deciding who had the better team! 😊
The Rules
We both have 5 players to choose from, however, we are only allowed to choose 1 character from one anime show.
A character’s powers can only be used in relation to the game of basketball. There is no attacking each other, no foul play, no beams, no psychic powers, projectiles or manipulation of the basketball. Only thing allowed are physical enhancement abilities. So, for example Super Sayian. Basically, it’s like the film Shaolin soccer but with Anime characters.
So with that said here are the teams.
