    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?

    Sorry, but I can't really consider us a serious contender with Camby as our starting center.

    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.

    I don't want Dwight without DWill, that's the only way he'll even consider staying.

    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 :)

    Thank you. There is no "D-Mo." Only Donuts.

    I think I'd take this one:

    Dwill
    Lee
    Parsons
    JSmoov/D-Mo
    Dwight/Camby

    Option 1 will only be for one year if DWill doesn't come here...so rather pointless.

    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.
