Hello there clutchfans, lemme get this started by saying this is my first post! I am a long time follower of this forums, and feel like I will fit right in! Anyways, with all this commotion of trades of draft picks and superstars, I want your opinion on what truly is the best line-up and which line-up will eventually et us to the finals or even the championship? (Keep in mind, some of these line-ups are exactly the starting line-ups just what will eventually be the best player at each position, or what we will recieve in trades) Option 1: (PG) - Dragic (SG) - Martin (SF) - Parsons (PF) - D-Mo (C) - Dwight How I got here - I think we will resign dragic for sure, and NOT Dwill. Also I think we can retain Martin, but lose scola to get Dwight. Option 2: (PG) - Dragic (SG) - Martin/Dion Waiters (SF) - Parsons (PF) - Scola (C) - Camby/Drummond How I got here - This is us keeping our draft picks, if we do indeed recieve the 5th and 8th pick. I believe we would select Andre Drummond with the 5th pick, because we need a big, Camby is about to retire, and Dalembert just won't cut it as our future center. Also I like the pick of Dion Waiters also because of his ability to score. Option 3: (PG) - Dragic (SG) - T. Evans (SF) - Parsons (PF) - J. Smith (C) - Camby How I got here - We trade to get the fifth pick and recieve Tyreke Evans along with it. Also we package our picks to get Josh Smith, who I really like. Honestly this is my favorite line-up, and one that will eventually makes us a contender. So what do you guys think?
This is a good lineup, but I don't see Scola returning with DWill money. I can see Do-nuts starting at the 4 in this situation.
how about this... nash/dragic or perhaps dragic/nash if nash doesn't mind playing behind dragic lee/rivers parsons/barnes jsmith/donatas kg/camby
I'm sure you were just being funny, but actually it was Bosh at center. And if you have Lebron and DWade you don't need a 1, 4 or 5 evidentally
Option 6: 14th pick, 18th pick Dragic Lee/Martin (Martin will come off the bench for humiliation purposes) Parsons/ Morris PPat/ Donuts/ Scola Dwight/ Demarcus Cousins
We are all wanting Dwight but a lot has to happen still to have a chance at him. Even if Rox are able to pull off getting all these top 10 draft picks the Magic could decline trade offer.
D-Mo is Donatas Motiejunas, the 23rd pick last year, who has been stashed in Europe the past year. IMHO D-Will is only a marginal upgrade over Dragic. It is difficult under the new CBA to fit 2 $19 million dollar contracts into a roster. Much better to roll the dice with Josh Smith at $12 million. Dragic Martin Parsons Smith Howard That roster would be a scoring machine and Martin would be the only negative from a defensive standpoint. Four players who could go off for 20+ any night and three who will get all NBA defensive team votes.
