Would There Be A Better Trio? 

Post#1 » by STChaser » Thu Jul 10, 2008 12:25 am

We're pretty shallow now at SF with Carney gone and Iguodala sliding over to SG. Can Reggie Evans play minutes at SF and if so, would this trio be the best rebounding trio in the league:

C: Dalembert
PF: Brand
SF: Evans

It would seem to me that opponents would have fits trying to outrebound these three. Thoughts?

Thoughts?


If I ever saw that trio try to play an offensive possession, I'd vomit, and Mo should be fired immediately.

Evans can't play the 3.

Dally, Brand, & Young are great rebounders even without Evans. I don't see Evans playing SF, but I see Iggy getting a lot of time there since we are deep at SG with Williams and Willie.

I agree, Evans will never play SF, but even Brand/Dalembert is a formidable rebounding duo. Here's how I'd rank the league's best rebounding frontcourts:

Shaq/Amare
Camby/Martin
Brand/Dalembert
Nowitzki/Dampier
Chandler/West
Aldridge/Oden - ?

I think you forgot Jermaine Oneal & Chris Bosh. Tough duo as well.

Defensively, yes they would be a top 3 trio, although I don't think Evans can cover elite SF"s...Rebounding wise, we would be the best team in the league...

Offensively...

WTF? Dude did you just have a brain fart? I think that turn around jumper that Evans made against the pistons had a lil bit too much of an effect on you...

The negatives far outweigh the positives in the lineup. We would have way too much difficulty scoring even though defensively we would probably give the opposition nightmares...
