So, is Denver clearly in the lead for "team of the future"?  I've got to think so.

I like Denver's players a lot, but I question how this team would function together.


How do any of these teams function together?


The PG and C have a history.  Foye and Love were teammates last year.  Green is known as a good glue guy.  And we have a strong teacher as a head coach and time for them to learn.

Denver still has two 6 (3,4) and two 7.  Willing to move 2 of those picks to move up.  PM me.  ( already talked to one other owner that probably is not a great fir since all out picks are so close together.)

Again, I'm fielding offers for ORL's 4.27 and 5.1 picks.

We will likely move one of these picks, depending on how the 4th round proceeds.

Also, D. Wade and Nene have had their own share of injury issues, as I recall, and Odom has motor problems.  I remember some proverb about glass houses and tossing stones around.

Nene and Wade are coming off of career years and Odom was a key contributor on a championship team. Correct?

The topic was not my team it was yours. You and Edgar are building an older and often injured team and threw in Spencer Hawes. Roy, when is the last time a player on your team was an all-star team? 2005?

2009.  But thanks for trying to deflect attention away from your own flawed team.  8)

Odom wasn't even a starter for a lot of last season, and he's your #3 guy.  The knock on him his entire career has been that he doesn't play hard -- and it's showed.  The guy is coming off of a season where he averaged 11 points per game, and you took him over all-stars.

Wade is dominant, but very injury prone (and he plays a style that invites injury).  Nene has missed 65+ games twice in the past four seasons, and only once has he managed as many as 12.5 points per game.  He's never averaged 8 rebounds per game.

So, those are your three players.  Again, you seem to be mocking our team a little too much when yours is severely flawed.

FallGuy is no longer a GM, I believe.  CelticInOrlando took over Minnesota.

The PG and C have a history.  Foye and Love were teammates last year.  Green is known as a good glue guy.  And we have a strong teacher as a head coach and time for them to learn.

The ability to spread the floor scares me a little, I don't like the Green and Foye combo personally.

That being said, I think your team is probably better than mine at this point. I don't mean to deflate the job you've done, again, I love all the players individually.

We at the las vegas war room like to think we are somewhere in the discussion, with our team based defense and  trade able assets, but we concede that WDL is in the lead talent wise, for sure.

You have talent, but Beasley at C?  I think his future might be as a big SF in this league.

mabey, but we don't expect to win this year.

We have time and trade assets to fix the C issue and get beasly to PF down the road, where he belongs.
