    When you take a look back on all the moves Morey has tried to pull off over the past few seasons, you would see that any combination of them would have built an better team than any of the current superteams.
    Just think of all the possibilities:

    Team 1:
    Howard
    Bosh
    Anthony
    Martin?
    Paul

    That's a pretty good offensive team.
    (sigh, offseason:()

    Pau (I assume its Pau Gasol, not CP3) might still be around. Anthony would prob be a goner last year and Bosh too. And Howard next year.

    *yawn* I must be bored too.

    I understand we have had lots of assets in that time...but we didnt have THAT many assets. That team is not realistic. Not in a million years.

    That's not even relevant, we didn't have enough assets to get more than 1 of those players.

    True, but you could have at least one of them be a free agent signing.
    Something like getting a Gasol/Nene pairing with Melo or Paul.

    I think Martin would score well on that team.

    I like your thinking but it's not realistic.

    Yup, Rox were trying harder to acquire Lebron James too. I think he would make a great 6-man, coming off the bench!

    It has been a while old friend, but I see you're at it again. And no we weren't going after CP3 in that deal we were going after Pau.

    I was dying to see what Chris Bosh could of done in a Chris Webber type role in Adelman's motion system.

    But Jones = lesser Dwight Howard
    Donatas = Pau
    Parsons is good looking
    Lamb + Martin >>>> Martin
    Lin = Nash
    and Royce White = the next Rodman

    Seems like a better team to me.

    Wake me up when Lin leads the league in assists like 5 times
    and wake me up with Royce White averages 18 rebounds a game and wins DPOY.

    Does badlee have multiple accounts?
