Are we talking just one player?

Re: Who would You Start A Nba Franchise From Start With???

It's a pretty tough question right now, because a good portion of the league's best talent is way young.

Opposed to thinking about it for an hour and analyzing it to death, I'll just say who first popped into mind: Dwight Howard.

But there's easily ten other guys I'd be comfortable with, if not more.

Yeah that one guy you would build your franchise around

i would go with dwayne wade as of right now.......Kobe is the obvious choice but he's gettin a little old. Lebron & Wade are neck & neck but i go with Wade b/c in my eyes he brings a little more to the table.

LeBron James. If I could start with a core of players it would be LeBron James, Dwight Howard, and Deron Williams.

Whistles of course.......

I'd go with a team that is out of the playoffs now like the Cats, Kings, Clippers. I also have a soft place for Vince Carter so the Nets would be a solid pick also.

LeBron... no question. Although CP3 is intriguing, having the chance to build around a player that is so versatile and is also probably the most amazing player in the league athletically is something that you can't pass up. He's a good deal younger than Wade, and has a greater potential to carry a team on his own than someone like Dwight does due to his position and being able to control the ball most of the game.

If I'm starting a franchise for the next several years, the answer is LEBRON. Clear cut, no question. The only player you could argue that's better than him right now is Kobe in terms of skill, but LeBron is right behind him, plus he has more physical tools. Not to mention that he has a lot of time to improve and develop. (how bout practicing some more FT's?) As far-fetched as this is going to sound - LBJ has the potential to average a triple-double, who else in the NBA is gonna touch that?

Chris Paul?
I'd still go with LeBron James... but Paul does deserve mentioning.

Re: Who would You Start A Nba Franchise From Start With???

as far as age and talent, the only people named should be Howard, James or Paul...maybe D Will

Well i believe wade is a better on the ball defender.... Also he's a better scorer if i'm starting my franchise and this is just me i want a scorer. Also he's got that killer instinct showed in his finals mvp run we gotta see what Lebron does this year. Wade is single handidly carrying this team on his back.

LeBron....only because of age. I like Kobe more, but I can get six more years out of LeBron.

Chris Paul would be my pick.

I've always felt that your chances for success are much higher with a dominant PG than any other position. Paul can get his own shot but he's really great at setting up his teammates for good looks and plays pretty solid defense.
