Who Would Be Your Starting 5?

[Jdoug312]

In today's game.

MY LIST

PG- Rose
SG- Ray Allen
SF- Lebron
PF- Amar'e
C- Dwight

Explanation:

Dwight is a must. Best defender in the league, no one else I'd rather have down low on D. Amar'e is a stretch 4. Good shooter, great range. Liability on D, but hey we have D12. Lebron is very athletic, one of the best players in the game, until playoff basketball. Ray Allen's only job for me on offense would be coming off of screens and taking that 3. He's the person that gets the kick out from the next guy, Rose. Rose would be amazing on a team like this. With STAT's ability to shoot from the outside, he'll lure opposing PF's out of the paint, leaving plenty of room for Rose to attack the rim. When he gets in trouble, kick it out to Ray Allen, who is the king of 3's.

So what's your list?

I could live with this line up. Not that I have to defend my team, but the reason I chose Durant over James is because he's a better off ball player (I already have Paul & Wade..don't need another ball dominant perimeter guy), and I took Gasol over Dirk for the same reason, and he's a better passer, in my opinion.

[DukeC]

PG: Rondo
SG: Ray Allen
SF: Lebron
PF: Dirk
C: Dwight

With Rondo setting up these 4 guys on offense, plus, with them able to create for themselves....130+ points will be put on the board.Plus, our TEAM defense wouldn't be bad either. So long as we play within our concept we should be fine on D.

G - Rondo
G - Bryant
F - Durant
F - Nowitzki
C - Howard

[Rockie_Fresh88]

PG: Stephon Curry
SG: Dwayne Wade
SF:Kevin Durant
PF:Amare Stoudemire
C.Tyson Chandler

I didn't pick the best ppl at each position. I picked ppl who would mesh well together. I know Dwight is a no brainer for most. But just meditate on the possiblities with this lineup.

Curry running the point. Durant running off screens playing off ball. Wade with iso drives. Chandler/Stoudemire catching lobs.

[AnnihilusLivius]

PG : C.Paul ( Obvious reasons, he controls the ball so well and helps the team in many ways )
SG : Bryant ( My idol since I was born or close to it. Completely love him )
SF : LeBron ( Whether you love or hate him the man does his job on the court )
PF : K.Love ( No words for this guy, a beast. )
C : Howard ( Superman has gotta be the chosen one for every one, he does everything in the defensive end, PERIOD! )

Still think Durant is gonna be the next big thing in the NBA for years to come, but for now this is my lineup.

But I still miss those days... watching Iverson, T-Mac, Garnett, Shaq, Duncan, Marbury, Sprewell, Cassell. Those were my days.
