    Voted Sampson cause for some reason didn't notice Moses. Probably one of those.

    Moses would be Amare if Amare also happened to be the best rebounder in the league in this system. Moses should really be exempt for this exercise.

    Of course it's the Chairman of the Boards. No doubt about it.

    I missed Moses option. Went with more athletic offense, with how this new system should be run and gun.

    Calvin Murphy.

    Big men aren't worth much in today's NBA.

    Murphy would cause havoc.

    The Big E, you don't have to give up two first round picks for him and you get him right from his rookie season.

    Is it because Big Men aren't effective in today's NBA, or because there aren't any effective big men in the NBA?

    I'd say more option 2. When there's no one on Marc Gasol's level, that's a problem.

    Moses would be dunking Steph and Klay through the basket.

    Honestly for this team I'd want Ron Artest. He'd be the perfect small ball 4.

    I'd take the Yao that left us during the Lakers series, injury withstanding. He was on such a tear those last two seasons. He was putting it all together.

    Moses. Duh.

    If you exempt the first tier, OT would be a good fit and fun to watch on this team and in this version of the NBA.

    The correct answer is Moses.

    I used to think it was option 2

    Now I'm fairly convinced it's option 1
