    I had a debate about this with a couple guys at the bar. Want to hear what the Clutchfan board thinks

    Starting 5:

    Center- Yao Ming (at his prime)

    PF- Wang Zhizhi

    SF- Yi

    SG- Lebron James

    PG- Lin

    They'd give Starbury's team a run for their money.

    any team with lebron and yao will be a good team. lin is a solid pg, wang and yi are scrubs but i think playing with lebron will make them look better

    overall, this is a better line up than our starting 5

    both lebron and lin are good at penetration and passing which means yao will be averaging 27 / 10

    This thread is dumb any team with Lebron James is a championship contender. He took some of the worst teams in Cleveland to the NBA finals.

    well, if you look at current poll results, 40% of people think they won't make the playoffs/eliminated in only 1st round

    Yi's got potential but he's such a little scrub. Refused to play after he got drafted. Who does that?

    Even if I played PF/SF on that team, it would be a champ contender. ANY team with Prime Yao and Lebron is easily a championship caliber team.
