How good would this team be this season? 

Post#1 » by Magz50 » Tue Jan 15, 2008 5:31 pm

PG Jason Williams
SG Dwayne Wade
SF Caron Butler
PF Lamar Odom/ Udonis Haslem
C Mark Blount

I think that team would be close to a finals team with the addition of another bigman?

They would for sure need a different starting center. Who else would be on there team? Six guys can't get you very far.

I meant the strength of their starting roster.

I still would easily take Boston or Detroit over this team, but they would be in the mediocre mix of Eastern teams.

This almost looks like the Wizards w/Arenas.

we've already discussed this countless times. the heat with butler/odom is just the wizards.

this set up is considerably worse than the wizards because marc blount is a black hole.

LOL every team starting Mark Blount can't be considered a finals favorite

They'd probably be a playoff team, but nowhere near a contender IMO. Blount is just too much of a hole.

Start Haslem at center and play uber small ball, and then when all hope seems lossed pray that Antoine Walker enters the arena drops down to the center court and fuses with Dwayne Wade do create Dwayntoide Wadker
