    Chuck Hayes would start over Powe and Gooden. Actually I'd have him at any position in that GSW team over the guys they have, except Jason Kidd.

    At least the Rockets would finally have some serious size.

    Nice Photoshop work on Lebron. It looks like he actually played for Cleveland in that picture

    I dont think that Martin is a piece of **** according to the cavs analysis. A lebron drive and kick to martic would be a lot better than the previous mavs team

    Fun little exercise this guy did. And for the record, I think the fake Houston team would destroy the real deal. Perkins and Okafor would completely shut down the paint, and Lewis and Jackson would torch us from the outside. DeAndre Jordan would tear Jordan Hill apart as well. The only real mismatch we would have is Lowry, and he can only do so much.

    didn't know durant was from washington, always thought he was texas bred. I guess not. Also we could use that size on that team

    Any team with Juwan Howard as the starter cannot be #1.

    And Kobe and Tyreke on the same team would be extremely funny.

    that's what i was thinking. if chuck had to play point guard and shoot the ball with his face, i would still put him in over jeremy lin.

    I tried a Houston only team on 2k a few years back. Was not entertained.

    Looks like he gave up about halfway through. Interesting concept, poorly executed. Jordan Hill backing up Jordan Hill? Nice.
