easily first one.

Lebron may be the best in the list but paul, kobe and dwight would be so easy to build around. You would barely have to worry about anything else. With the other one, you have to deal with not having a true center and no point guard.

As a team its easily team 1

2 of the top 4 players in the league on one team. One of them being the best. Not a fair comparison.

it comes down to me the diffrence of Dwight > Amare for the first one to be picked no promblem.

Dwight is probuly the only star Center in the NBA right now that isn't injured or injury prone... except for Duncan now that I think about it.

Agreed. Plug a defensive 3 who shoots the 3 and a rebounding PF and you're winning the championship.

Paul Kobe Dwight easily. Younger, better combo of players, none of them are a defensive liability (like Amare is, especially at the 5, which he would have to play on a team with KG), and you get a dominant center. Normally you'd be crazy to turn down LeBron, but not in this case.

Kobe/Paul/Dwight. You might have the best player on the other team but Amare? One of these things is not like the other. One of these things doesn't not belong.

Paul, Kobe, Dwight

Then I'd add James Posey at SF and Udonis Haslem at PF

Amare would struggle to score 21 points a game if he was outside of phoenix and without a perennial all-star point guard.

How does it feel to not know what the hell you are talking about? Amare has proven to be one of the better offensive bigmen in the league. That was before Nash got there. Now the big thing though is, Shaq is making him so good offensivly! Amare has post moves, can step out hit the 15-17 footer, gets garbage points. He can really score from anywhere. He is not a bad free throw shooter for his position either.

you don't watch Phoenix games, do you?

Amare scored 20.6 the year before Nash, in his 2nd yr.
