Alright, so we did this last year and it was pretty fun. Apparently, I was one of the closest.

So, predict the roster! I'll say the 10 man rotation.

Clarkson
Kobe
Winslow
Aldridge
Ed Davis

Randle
Ellington
Young
T Robinson
N Powell

Add in Tarik, Price, and our second round pick and we're good to go.

Damn I'd love that team. You really think we can get LA? I mean it makes sense LA in LA. But would he leave Damian? Nonetheless I am hoping this is our squad. Sorry I didn't predict a team. Your team is a HUGE upgrade. I love it.

Anyone got the link to the thread like this last year?

Only thing wrong with the list is 100% Jabari Brown is back next year

You know what, I considered him an absolute lock to resign with Portland until about a month ago.

A tweet came out from Ramona Shelburne who said that he could be available, the injury to Wes Matthews, possible frustration they've started to build around Lillard, etc.

I dunno, usually when there's smoke there's Fire and he was verrrrry non committal when last asked about his free agency and the possibility of staying in Portland.

PF-Love
SF-Winslow
C-Embiid
PG-Clarkson
SG-Bryant

PG - Clarkson
SG - Kobe
SF - Winslow
PF - Randle
C - Asik

Kobe ...obviously
Rondo..9mil
Wes..by default
Love .. 19mil
Boogie .. Trade picks after signing with Swaggy

Bench
Randle-Clarkson-Jabari-Black-Brown-Blue-Green

Durant in 2016

Let's go!

The question is how you get Embid... Give up Randle and Houston's First? ...Philly might see the pick and pull the trigger..

you still have money to spend .. What would you do to fill the roster?

why would philly trade for randle when they couldve just drafted him? that is so stupid it hurts, a late first doesnt change anything.

Looks like you're allocating more money than the Lakers have the ability to spend.

The problem is that a trade like that goes against everything the sixers have been doing. They're first and foremost looking for their next franchise cornerstone and they're willing to wait til they get home.

This is what allowed them to draft emblib knowing he'd sit out the entire year. They view him as having the potential to be a cornerstone. They made this choice with randle sitting right there for the taking, and with randle sitting out the entire year, the gap between the two in the sixers mind probably only grew wider.

A late first doesn't really do anything for a team looking for elite prospects, not depth. They have all the picks tget could want, hell they'd probably prefer a 2nd over the guaranteed money attached to the late first.

I have a few possibilities.

1.
Rajon Rondo
Kobe Bryant
Justice Winslow
Ed Davis
Brook Lopez

2.
Rajon Rondo
Kobe Bryant
Julius Randle
Kevin Love
Willie Cauley Stein

3.
Jordan Clarkson
Kobe Bryant
Justice Winslow
Julius Randle
DeAndre Jordan

i thought that too. its more like a pipe dream i guess. i put rondo only because kobe really wants him. green because i dont want wes or young back. and really id be happy with signing deandre or someone like him: a true c, athletic, defensive

Start:

Clarkson
Kobe
Matthews
Randle
Marc

Bench:
Russell
Hill
Young
Hollis-Jefferson
Black
Sacre
Brown
Kelly
Dakari
Rodriguez

Alright, I think the prediction should be starting 5 given all the variables therefore here is my lineup:

PG: Clarkson (Dude earned it)
SG: Kobe (Farewell tour)
SF: Stanley (Top 5 SF)
PF: Love (Cold in Cleveland)
C: Davis (Black on bench)

I know this isn't a stretch but K Love is done in Cleveland without a ring... I am torn on center as I would prefer Asik or Chandler & let Randle play but I have a feeling Love is coming to LA...

Yeah I was thinking it would he for Randle and the Houston 1st.

pf-Love/Kelly/34th pick
SF-Winslow/free agent with 3 million cap room
c-Embiid/Black
PG-Clarkson/free agent with room exception
sg-Bryant/Young/Brown
