Would like a feedback.

Philadelphia Rocky Balboa's

G - Mike Conley
G - Andre Iguodala
F - Caron Butler
F - ?
C - Spencer Hawes


Might not be a contender. But there sure is some defense in that perimeter with those three.

I liked your team better with Tony Parker. Thought that could have been contender.

I know, I gambled and thought I could have Brandon Jennings at 2.2. He could have been my Parker plan B. Didn't pay off as he was taken at 2.1.

PG: Collison
SG: Wade
SF:James

PF/C: Favors.


I take back everything I said about Pat Riley. Building a team around these two is hard.

Hate the Collison and Favors picks.

Collison is a very streaky shooter.  Coupled with the fact he needs the ball to impact the offensive side of the ball. I cant see him being successful in a system where he brings the ball up, hands off to Wade or LBJ, then runs to the corner as a spot-up shooter.

Favors is too soft/young to handle the superstar tandem. He is also too poor a defensive rebounder for the heat to be a successful run n gun team.

Perhaps a Sam Dalembert or Jordan Hill would make a better 5.

I love Favors as a bench guy at this point in his career.

At the point, i'd consider a guy like Jordan Farmar, or even a guy like Jodie Meeks.

As for trading LBJ, you would be crazy to do so.  He is the best player in the league.  His presence automatically guarantees you Conference, or semi's appearances.

[Slugger]

PG: Curry
SG: Harden
SF:
PF: Lee
C: Camby

Right now, I think we're better than the real Warriors and are on our way to being a play-off team. For GS, that's good.

You need some toughness on that team.

Insert a guy like Jonas Jerebko onto that team and you have a solid rebounding/defending 3/4 man and a very solid starting lineup.  

He has a good motor, and isnt afraid to do the dirty work.

Also a good shooter.

Your selection of Camby has copped some flack, but i think he'd be a great fit for the next 1-2 years @ 20 mins per game.

Solid half-court team that can get out in transition.  Like it

[Rondo2287]

PG: Jose Calderon
SG:
SF: Melo
PF:
C: Big Al

Even three players in I think I'm better than the real houston rockets.  Post presence, Pick and roll play, and Isolation, we got it all.

Who they going to stop though?  That trio couldnt contain the current Bobcat lineup

They don't have to, nobody has the bobcats in this draft.  But seriously yes, defense is going to be an issue, but with a top 10 player, an all star and Point guard that works well with both of them I will take my chances.

Hmm, i dont see it.

I know Carmelo has copped alot of flack since he got injured and the knicks started winning.  I think in the right scenario he is easily a top 5 calibre player in the NBA.  A flat out scorer who is a good passer and excellent rebounder for his position.

Your weaknesses are at the other spots.  Calderon whilst capable on the offensive side of the ball, is a defensive seive.  Al Jeff will not be a deterrant at the rim for penetrating players.

It has also been shown that Amare and Melo cannot co-habitate and succeed.  What makes you think Al and Melo can?

[Rondo2287]

Looking to move up in the third round.  I have pick 3.16 let me know if you are willing to move down

 Big Al probably has top two post moves in the leauge, I think him and Pau are at the top.  The fact that Big Al can create his own shot down on the block gives Melo much more space to operate and do his thing.  I think the skill sets of the three players on my team are very complementary and will fit nicely together.

Looking to move up from pick 3.16 in this round if you are interested in moving down, let me know.

40%  from 3 is a heck of a streak.

[StartOrien]

All I know is we started out with the Cleveland Cavaliers and the 18th pick in every round and that we have this team and that we are both having a bunch of fun:

PG: Kyrie Irving, 19 years old, future ROY and multiple time All-Star
SG:
SF: Luol Deng, 26 years old, All-Star
PF: Kris Humphries, 27 years old, double double machine
C: Andrew Bynum, 24 years old, 2 time World Champ, All-Star

And Roy and I have no comment on the rumor that Dan Gilbert called and has offered us both jobs as co-Directors of Basketball Personnel.

You left out 'hearbreaker' next to Kris Humphries, Nick.
