  • We may as well put Tyrion in at center.
(They'd play at the same level/health they were at when they were playing for us)

(Also you can't pick Perk  ;))

Would you take Tony Allen and make the ultimate defensive tandem in the league w/ Bradley?

Or would you take a gamble on Shaq's health. We really do need a big. Maybe Big Baby?

Any other choices?
I like Marcus Smart

  • Everyone's excited for the new era.
Are we talking for this year?  Like they would play for this year's team?

If so, then probably Big Baby.  Second choice would be one of the O'Neals.

PJ Brown or Shaq are the only guys that really make the most sense to me. My heart says pre-injury Leon Powe, but I just don't see our ceiling higher with him than with PJ or Shaq.

Best for our winning chances: probably has to be Shaq. 

Guy I'd most want to see: Posey. Maybe House.

Mikki Moore.

No, but really....I'd pick Shaq (the guy from Nov 10'-Jan 11' anyways). The Big 4 + O'Neil was the most dominating starting unit I've ever seen in a long time.

Remember that time House stole the ball then passed it behind his back as he went out of bounds?

....

That was awesome.

Actually, did I fever-dream this? I can see it so clearly, house going toward the scorers table, behind the back..did this actually happen?

Edit: Cuz I can't find it on YouTube, and I think if it happened it'd be there. That's what YouTube is for, right?

My pic is now, and will be Fab Melo until he posts his first official NBA dbl-dbl. This may be permanent.

Nenad Krstic?  He was relatively healthy and we could use his rebounding and scoring Inside.

I'd be happy with any of Bird, Mchale or Parish.  Oh, you mean the pseudo-Big 3 era.

since you've ruled out Perk, probably Krstic as the only really healthy and decent center we ever had besides Perk

Garnett, Pierce and Allen big three I would bring back PJ Brown.

In the Bird, Parish and Mchale era I would bring back Dennis Johnson (RIP)

If he would be healthy, Shaq for sure.  Our team was really great (on offense especially) with Shaq.
