[SelakStreet]

Among all the 27 NBA teams that played during the '92 season, the following teams had the corresponding starting lineup from which small forward they started the most. Here are the most used lineups for each team from their respective divisions:

Atlantic Division:
Boston: Reggie Lewis (started alongside John Bagley, Kevin Gamble, Larry Bird and Robert Parish)
Miami: Glen Rice (started alongside Vernell Coles, Willie Burton, Grant Long and Rony Seikaly)
New Jersey: Chris Morris (started alongside Mookie Blaylock, Drazen Petrovic, Derrick Coleman and Sam Bowie)
New York: Xavier McDaniel (started alongside Mark Jackson, Gerald Wilkins, Charles Oakley and Patrick Ewing)
Orlando: Terry Catledge (started alongside Scott Skiles, Nick Anderson, Jeff Turner and Greg Kite)
Philadelphia: Charles Barkley (started alongside Johnny Dawkins, Hersey Hawkins, Armon Gilliam and Charles Shackleford)
Washington: Harvey Grant (started alongside Michael Adams, David Wingate, Larry Stewart and Pervis Ellison)

Central Division:
Atlanta: Dominique Wilkins (started alongside Rumeal Robinson, Stacey Augmon, Kevin Willis and Blair Rasmussen)
Charlotte: Johnny Newman (started alongside Muggsy Bogues, Kendall Gill, Larry Johnson and Kenny Gattison)
Chicago: Scottie Pippen (started alongside John Paxson, Michael Jordan, Horace Grant and Bill Cartwright)
Cleveland: Winston Bennett (started alongside Mark Price, Craig Ehlo, Larry Nance Sr. and Brad Daugherty)
Detroit: Dennis Rodman (started alongside Isiah Thomas, Joe Dumars, Orlando Woolridge and Bill Laimbeer)
Indiana: Chuck Person (started alongside Micheal Williams, Reggie Miller, LaSalle Thompson and Rik Smits)
Milwaukee: Frank Brickowski (started alongside Jay Humphries, Alvin Robertson, Fred Roberts and Moses Malone)

Midwest Division:
Dallas: Rodney McCray (started alongside Derek Harper, Rolando Blackman, Terry Davis and James Donaldson)
Denver: Reggie Williams (started alongside Winston Garland, Mark Macon, Cadillac Anderson and Dikembe Mutombo)
Houston: Buck Johnson (started alongside Kenny Smith, Vernon Maxwell, Otis Thorpe and Hakeem Olajuwon)
Minnesota: Sam Mitchell (started alongside Pooh Richardson, Doug West, Tony Campbell and Felton Spencer)
San Antonio: Sean Elliott (started alongside Rod Strickland, Willie Anderson, Terry Cummings and David Robinson)
Utah: Jeff Malone (started alongside John Stockton, Blue Edwards, Karl Malone and Mark Eaton)

Pacific Division:
Golden State: Chris Mullin (started alongside Tim Hardaway, Mario Elie, Billy Owens and Tyrone Hill)
L.A. Clippers: Loy Vaught (started alongside Gary Grant, Ron Harper, Danny Manning and Olden Polynice)
L.A. Lakers: James Worthy (started alongside Sedale Threatt, Byron Scott, Sam Perkins and Elden Campbell)
Phoenix: Tim Perry (started alongside Kevin Johnson, Jeff Hornacek, Tom Chambers and Andrew Lang)
Portland: Jerome Kersey (started alongside Terry Porter, Clyde Drexler, Buck Williams and Kevin Duckworth)
Sacramento: Lionel Simmons (started alongside Spud Webb, Mitch Richmond, Wayman Tisdale and Duane Causwell)
Seattle: Derrick McKey (started alongside Gary Payton, Ricky Pierce, Michael Cage and Benoit Benjamin)

Based on overall performance, the ones who look like they could easily be replaced with Prime 80s Jazz-era Adrian Dantley are Chris Morris (Nets), Winston Bennett (Cavaliers), Rodney McCray (Mavericks), Buck Johnson (Rockets), Loy Vaught (Clippers), Tim Perry (Suns) and Lionel Simmons (Kings).

Which one of those most replaceable starting small forwards would you bench in favor of an upgrade in the form of Prime 80s Jazz-era Dantley?

And which starting core would Prime 80s Jazz-era Adrian Dantley fit better with? Assuming you put him on either the Nets, Cavs, Mavs, Rockets, Clippers, Suns or Kings.

Idk....the Raptors?

San antonio would be interesting as dantley could raise their offense with his scoring and robinson would get to pick his spots instead of being asked to carry the spurs isolation after isolation

Some of those starting lineups are incorrect, Miami's sticks out as Steve Smith started in the backcourt.

Prime Dantley back in Utah would be huge. He'd give them much needed scoring and they probably beat Portland in the WCF and push Chicago in the final.

As others have noted, some curious positional designations (Brickowski at 3, Woolridge at 4, Catledge at 3 [in part, I imagine, caused by massive starter instability and just picking the top 5 total starters], Vaught at 3 ...)

Think this is the wrong year to pin Lionel Simmons as a weakness. My quick mental aggregation of the Reference box composites would probably be to say they have him as the Kings' best player.

Cavs and Suns are very good and need an upgrade at the SF but Dantley isn't a great fit (though maybe he helps with playoff resilience).
Denver have a defensive anchor and are most in need of offensive punch (running a lot of offense through Mutombo post ups), though where Dantley gets them overall is unclear.

He could play the Campbell role (and I'd say Campbell was the three) much better for Minnesota. Ditto for Catledge (though Magic are better, have better swingmen/wings).

If he's in for Vaught (a bad defending PF, but they have two tall combo forwards though Smith misses a lot of the season) then that's an upgrade for a slightly above average team with weak O.

Elliott isn't bad (if overrated) but Dantley might give the Spurs a chance to stay alive through to Robinson's estimated return (circa middle of the second round). Probably not a good chance though. New York too is another tough D with a middle of the pack O, where Dantley might help?

Same with the knicks. I don't think that Ewing would mind taking a backseat to Dantley. Probably the Jazz that year also.
