No offense, but I dont think its close
Gilbert
        Wade
Artest>Odom
KG    >Mcdyess
Camby> Nene

Obviously we still have aw whole in the lineup but the only position thats close is Camby and Nene, and Nene has only had one good season and it took him having a great pointguard to finally produce.  Right now you dont have one

I don't think Artest and Gilbert will get along very nicely.

Can I have their numbers? I feel like if you can make that judgment you must talk to them on a regular basis or something like that.

The difference between Wade and Arenas is huge.

When's the last time a PG lead a team to a title? To me, as evidence by the latest dynasties and champions; a solid, ball distributing PG is more than sufficient. There are still many available.

You are missing a shooting guard, a far more important element to a championship team. It would seem anyway.

Going by personality wise.

Don't use Gilbert as your PG.  


It was he they were talking about with the give and go offense.


"Just give me the ball and go to hell"


Make him the SG so your team has a better chance.

Tim Duncan. And Rasheed Wallace is the guy that put that 2004 team over the top if you remember. But yeah Chauncey is the closet thing since Isiah Thomas.

Tim Duncan and Rasheed Wallace.

I don't remember them winning the Finals MVP that year.

Wouldn't that give the advantage to the team with KG?

As I said, Nene Never got good untill he was paired with an elite point guard, i dont think that is a coincidence.  And the difference between Arenas and Wade is just as big as KG and Mcdyess

Shoot first, second and third PG.


He is such a better player as a SG where he can shoot.  Get a PG that will get the ball to KG as well.

Nene got good when he began to start.

Wait is Toronto arguing Arenas is better than Wade?
