Any of them . . . I'm up for adding Amare; he's an amazing talent you can build around which none of the others are except maybe the 5th pick and I haven't got great confidence in it.
If we deal Butler, James and the 5th for Amare, I start Young and McGuire at the wings; they are both at the stage where if they don't break out they will never amount to that much, and use Jamison as the 6th man.
Haywood/Amare/McGuire/Young/Arenas with Jamison as 6th man has a chance at being really good if they play to their potential and Flip gets them to play team defense. Of course this assumes Gil is back, at 100%, and he (and the team) commit to the defensive mentality but that is needed in ANY successful Wiz scenario.
