    Then I'll have Chris Wilcox guard him and have Garnett/Nene guard whichever big you have playing near the basket.

    Can't have transition offense unless you get rebounds. And I think you're really underestimating Curry/Nelson. Nelson is pretty quick, and I think it's universally accepted that Curry is significantly better than Holiday.

    How would you stop a Curry/Garnett pick and roll? Or a Nelson/Nene pick and roll? Keep in mind that if you intend to use help defense, both Garnett and Nene are good passers and my team is loaded with good 3 point shooters.

    And what kind of offense do you plan on running? So far, it sounds like you plan on having Holiday/Ellis try to go 1on1 every time and kick it out to Channing Frye, your only good 3 pt shooter.

    though I imagine about 25% of those posts are basically "someone trade with meeeeee!!!"

    (in fairness, about 25% of mine are me posting the draft order)

    This is gonna be fun.

    My bigs rotation is gonna be Zach Randolph/Lamar Odom/Nick Collison/Nic Batum

    Wings will be Caron Butler/Eric Gordon/Batum/Reddick

    Guards Jason Kidd/JJ Reddick

    Eric Gordon can guard the faster PGs instead of Kidd

    I bet they'd judge you more favorably if you traded Ginobili and your 8th round pick to me for John Salmons and Kirk Hinrich :)

    Poor guy, you think a defensive rating of 112 makes anyone universally better than another. Wilcox is just as bad a defender, he won't be guarding anyone at the 3 point line, let alone anyone who could then just slowly dribble around him.

    you already posted the rebounding percentages, while leaving out that Marion rebounds at the same rate as Nene, you made the argument for me that I don't need to worry about rebounds.

    You don't need to really guard Frye. You just need to stay out on him. It's not like Frye is gonna take Wilcox consistently in the post or off the dribble.

    I feel pretty bad for JMC, his team doesn't excel at really any position. Most would run his team over, no ones talking about VBG, any serviceable big and he'd have a damn good one.
