    Like Paul George. Except not for Martin, for Aldridge. :)

    Looks like you need a SG instead of 2 SFs. How bout Tony Allen + Gallinari for Deng + 8th rounder.

    I really like what you did.

    Solid. Looks really good defensively. A nice first option in Amare. Maybe lacking a second scorer but you are strong enough defensively, it doesn't matter much. If you can get a nice scorer/spark off the bench with your 8th rounder, your team could be a legit force imo (tho you probably already are a legit force).

    Im looking to package Martin and my 8 for either two seven round picks or a straight up for a Defensive minded SF and maybe a pick if needed to balance it out still have my 7th round 16 pick and 8th round 9 pick left

    Quick breakdown:

    Curry > Wall
    J.Richardson = W.Matthews
    C.Maggette < L.James
    Nene > D.Williams
    K.Garnett > M.Camby

    J.Nelson > A.Brooks

    I'm surprised that you think J.Wall is even close to S.Curry. Can you name a single facet of the game that Wall is superior to Curry in? Wall is a 30% 3pt shooter with a true shooting % of 49%. That's very bad for a guard.

    Speaking of shooting bad for a guard, your backup PG Aaron Brooks shot 30% from the 3pt line with a TS% of 49%. Same as John Wall...disgustingly bad.

    Both Wall and Lebron need to run the offense to be effective players. Clearly, Lebron will be the priority. So that relegates Wall into a spot-up shooter role. But once again, he shoots 30% from the 3 pt line.

    Your PF, Derrick Williams, has yet to play an NBA game. People are going to hold that against you. Especially if he's going to be guarding Garnett or Nene. Camby is a solid defender, but not much on offense. In other words, you have no consistent interior scoring.

    I picked Wilcox purely for rebounding/defensive purposes.

    The thought of pairing artest and tony allen is tempting since it would give me two top tier defensive guys in the starting line up, but id like to keep deng as my secondary scorer, so no thanks.

    Thanks for the feedback BRR.

    Lee is my guy, I really don't want to give him up although Hickson's athleticism would help my team out..alot

    If we leave hickson/lee out of this...i'll deal right now...and i'll consider hickson for lee as i continue to make trades/picks

    I'll have to look it over a little more at the trade, feel free to make trades with other people if you have a good offer. Just thinking I have probably the best backcourt, arguably, and not sure about the downgrade of parker to holiday.

    i decided to give the starting job to thornton over crawford. I hate the fact that i have a weak pg rotation and i agree with you there. Although i dont agree with the fact that cousins is poor offensively.

    and since i will have him comming off the bench, i won't have to worry about him fouling out early.

    Rondo and Johnson dispute your best backcourt claim.

    alright, please let me know, just keep in mind that you have 4 pfs and 0 sfs...shawn marion does not demand the ball which means monta can do his thing and flourish..meanwhile marion can help out defesnively..alot

    you gtta get a small forward though..someone worthy of starting. i'll be here with the offer...and i'm not dangling marion around that easily, he's the key to my team as well!

    Your team is trash like you. The fact that you even think you are in the top 50 percentile is ****ing hilarious to me. TOP THREE? OMFG LMFAO!

    I may have no consistent interior scoring (which is what DWill should provide) but you have no consistent scoring period.

    Wes Matthews=JRich? DID YOU EVEN WATCH BASKETBALL LAST SEASON?

    KG would have trouble scoring against Camby and Camby would own him on the boards. Infact, KG at center is a joke.

    As far as Wall v Curry goes, Wall is a better facilitator/playmaker while Curry a better shooter. Neither are great defensive players so that is a wash. Curry might be the better player (FOR NOW) but Wall is better for this team.

    And LeBron>Maggettee? ROFL AT THAT. More like LeBron>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Maggetee.

    ****ing moron like you doesn't even deserve my time to argue this bull****. You are an idiot.

    Hmmmm, i don't know about that. Monta has way more on Johnson to make up for the small shortcomings of Parker to Rondo. Plus I have the best defensive SG as well.

    Best defensive SG? Tony Allen has BIG issues with that claim!

    very well said. wes matthew = jrich?? LOL thats funny.

    and WALL is better than curry....and about him shooting 3s...yea wall may shoot a low percentage..but he can make the 3 point shot..big difference. that means if he gets put on a team where he gets better, more open 3 point shots...he'll make em and his percentage should go up....don't yall remember him burning us last year??

    wall > curry
