Which Situations Would Suit Our Individual Players?

I was thinking - if you could take the following Bobcats players and put them on any other current NBA team as starters which teams would they be best suited to and which teams would suit them?
Think of the guys they would be playing with on their new teams and how they would compliment each other, the status of the franchise they would be playing for (contenders, re-build etc), the teams playing styles etc. Find the perfect fit for our players.
This isn't a trade thing, think of it as if the Bobcats ceased to exist and you could hand choose where to place our players. Also, don't worry about teams salary cap situations. I hope this makes sense?
DJ
Jax
Crash
Boris
T2
Hendo
UPS
Go!!!................................

Jax should go to the Pacers, yup that sounds like a great fit. Oh yeah, definitely. Yup.
EDIT: To be more serious though I'm not sure where our guys would fit best.

Naaaaaaaaaaaaa. Send him to the Pistons.
Seriously though, I think that Jax would be perfect on the Bulls roster right now.
Rose - Jax - Deng - Booz - Noah

They want him pretty badly, I think. I live in an area with a lot of Pacers and Bulls fans. I wonder who we could get for him? Maybe we could work a trade to get their backup center Asik. We shouldn't touch Deng though. He's like Wallace but slightly less good at everything, but paid like 2 million more a year or something. They're really attached to all their players. Noah, Boozer, Rose... No one's leaving. I bet they wish they still had gordon!

DJ - New York as their backup to Felton (wouldn't that be funny?)
Jax - Chicago, New Orleans, Utah
Crash - San Antonio, Dallas
Boris - Utah, Indiana, New York
T2 - Denver, Portland, New York
Hendo - Maine Red Claws
UPS - Indiana, Portland, possibly the Clippers?

Again, don't think of this as a trade thing, more just where you think our players would fit best around the NBA with nothing coming back in return.

dj - heat - imagine all those wide open threes he would get. no worries about being playmaker all the time
jax - utah - would slide in nicely next to deron
crash - blazers - good defensive team with players to compliment his style. not a team looking to shoot 3s all the time
diaw - magic - they get back what they lost in hedo. howard can control boards on own. diaw can hit 3s
nazr - rockets - decent filler while yao is healing
tyrus - suns - he is warrick x 5

He manages to get a decent amount of assists without dominating the ball anyway. I think you're right.

Don't they have like Raja Bell or something right now? Definite upgrade.

He's already injury prone...

They already have Shard for that though.

I was thinking the Pacers would like him backing up Hibbert.

He is pretty fast too, to keep up with their ballers.
Another cool place for Tyrus would be the Magic. Him and Dwight are probably the best jumping big men in the game, and they'd start Shard at the 3 where he really belongs.

Blake Griffin has a vertical leap of an amazing 35.5 inches. Tyrus Thomas has a whopping 39.5, and Dwight is in between them.
