2011 CB draft: How does my team look?/division rankings

[StartOrien]

PG: Kyle Lowry/Ramon Sessions
SG: James Harden/Fransisco Garcia/Marshon Brooks
SF: Carlos Delfino/Derrick Williams/Jonas Jerebko
PF: Amar'e Stoudemire/Derrick Williams/Tiago Splitter
C: Andrew Bogut/Tiago Splitter/Anthony Tolliver

That's 12. 1 more to add, and c'est fin.

I'm sure you're tired of questions about health concerns, but Francisco Garcia always seems to be injured. How do you feel about Brooks getting meaninful minutes

If Garcia goes down, I'm guessing Delfino gets more minutes at backup 2, and Williams gets more minutes at SF.

I'll plead ignorance: is Delinfo quick enough to play the 2?

I'm sure you're tired of questions about health concerns, but Francisco Garcia always seems to be injured. How do you feel about Brooks getting meaninful minutes

Well, actually I don't really know. Garcia had the really bad freak injury (that you can't peg on 'injury prone' unless you want to just call him unlucky) then he got hurt again in January, and I can't find out from what.

If it was the original injury, I'm not concerned. If it was a different one, I'd have to look at it.

As far as Brooks getting meaningful minutes at the 2 for a substantial stretch of time, I'm not extremely concerned about it, because barring another injury to one of Lowry, Sessions, or Harden, it wouldn't happen.

I'm not scared at all to play Sessions next to Lowry in the back-court (remember, I still have one more player to add. Bet you can't guess what position he'll play), and as Roy said above, Delfino could play spot minutes there, especially with the addition of Jerebko (which I am really surprised didn't make peoples' heads explode).

Yes, absolutely.

Roy seems have an unbiased take on all teams. You mind if I ask you Roy to give some feedback on my team. That way I could work something out. Thanks thanks.

Different injury. Aw Sisco, when are you gonna Unleash the Dragon?

Who gets it? Eh? Eh?

Actually, no. Not when the Price is Right.

I'll try my best:

2011 CB Draft's Atlanta Army Ants.

Coach: Tim Cone

PG - Rondo, Rajon
SG - Thornton, Marcus
SF - Jefferson, Richard
PF - Cousins, DeMarcus
C  - Biedrins, Andris

Tyrus Thomas, DeShawn Stevenson, Andray Blatche, Mario Chalmers, Terrence Williams, Kelenna Azubuike, Trey Thompkins, Chris Douglas-Roberts

I like you backcourt.  Up front, I don't like Cousins and Biedrins as a pair on the front line.  I almost think I'd go with Cousins and Thomas, and try to play as up-tempo as possible.

At first, I wasn't a big fan of Jefferson with the rest of the squad, but it could work if you let him be the primary scoring option on most nights.  I'd still probably look to move him -- either for a younger SF, or for more leadership -- but the fit isn't bad.

I'm still wrapping my head around your team, but there's no denying the potential of the Rondo / Cousins foundation. 

(Sorry, not my best work.  I'll have more for you at a later time.)

[RebusRankin]

San Antonio Spurs:

PG: Russell Westbrook/Luke Ridnour
SG: Arron Affalo/Vince Cater/Keith Bogans
SF: Grant Hill/Al-Farouq Aminu /Kyle Singler
PF: Carlos Boozer/Amir Johnson/Dante Cunningham
C: Chris Kaman/Larry Sanders/Kurt Thomas

We would like some feedback. Strengths? Weaknesses?

Personally we feel we have an excellent PG combo, good talent at the wings, solid starters at the 4/5 and some good young players in reserve there.

You consider Westbrook the alpha dog of this team?

If so, do you think he can handle it?  We did see some chinks in the armor with him last year, especially the playoffs.

Yes, I do consider him the Alpha Dog and think he can handle it. However I did draft Thomas and trade for Hill as supports for him.

I really like the starting lineup.  My concern is that there's nobody on your bench who I think you can really count on.  A lot of the guys have talent, but it's inconsistent talent, especially in the front court.  I'd like to see at least a couple more solid players.

Good. Itd be a shame if nobody got a good Sisqo reference.

For the kids out there, Sisqo was a terrible affliction that accosted America's senses from 1997 to 2002. You'll know him as 'That thong song guy'.
