2009 Celticsblog Draft: Voting Analysis : Team of the Future

[nickagneta]

Gotta say I like Buffalo to win the West....that doesn't sound right.......and also the whole thing. They have the young super-duper star, the talented All-Star starters, the good serviceable PG, depth, outside shooting rebounding, strength attitude, toughness, balance, not too many egos.

They are the team to beat.

A quick side here.  I just did some counting and there are 483 pages on this draft right now. 

I would say that is more then any other topic, ever.

I love to have active coaches
I wonder if next year is posible to play one fast one for newbies
and the champ qualifies for next years

see I am a visioner...and 6th margaritas

End of the day

another team with full roster

your Portland CrotorNats

C:   Shaq/Brad Miller
P.F: J. O`neil/Ronny Turiaf/Taj Gibson
S.F: Rashard Lewis/Ryan Gomes/Dudley
S.G: Michael Redd/Manu Ginobili/Ross/Delfino
P.G: Mike Bibby/Delonte West/Jrue

Good teams execute in the halfcourt in the playoffs and this team certainly seems built to do that. If I have a beef with this team its wing defense. I don't like Lewis at the 3 at all. Even though he played it in Seattle this guy seems built to be used like he was by Van Gundy at the 4. He has more space to work with and can exploit matchup problems easier from that position where most 4's are afraid to travel out to the arc to guard a guy. At the 3 I don't think he'll be quick enough on defense and on offense not a good enough ballhandler, nor post entry guy to get the ball down low to the O'neals. Not to mention he can't use his size advantage to post up with both of them clogging up the paint. Altogether it's a bad matchup.

2 years ago I'd have no problem calling Manu a defensive stopper but after injury issues the last couple of years I have trouble seeing him as the wing defender this team needs off the bench. He'll still contribute offensively though.

Bibby and Shaq are weak on D too. God forbid they play anyteam that can run 1-5 pick and roll and they're gonna get their lunch eaten. Who's got Rondo again?

I don't see a lot of size here. And what I do see here has only a year of NBA experience. Not a fan of AI AND T-Mac on the same team. That just seems like a bad idea to me.
