Answer 7

I would want Chris Paul on the Warriors.  The energy between Monta Ellis and Chris Paul at the sophmore - rookies game a couple years ago in Vegas was amazing.

Answer 8

Dwight Howard to the Wizards.  He provides a physical and defensive presence for a team that likes to run up and down the court since he is athletic enough to run with them.  His FT shooting isn't good, but with Dave Hopla the shooting doctor as an assistant coach for the Wizards, this guy could be a 70%+ FT shooter too.  Look at Brendan Haywood (55 to almost 75% FT% from 06-07 to 07-08) and DeShawn Stevenson (high 60's to 80% FT% in the same period) as examples of beneficiaries of Hopla's methods.

Starting Five:

PG - Arenas (explosive scorer and shooter with decent playmaking ability)

SG- Stevenson (one of the most durable players in the NBA; sharpshooter, can be wide open like Szczerbiak or Raja Bell are when the big FOUR are tangled up)

SF - Butler (gives 110% all around; he can create his shot REALLY well; also over 90% of his free throws go in)

PF- Jamison (guaranteed 20 and 10 boards; very good at the scoop shot and has good three point range, though it is a little streaky.  

C- Howard (guaranteed 20 and 10; blocks 2 shots or more a game; few big men can run with him.

Bench

Daniels, Young, Blatche, Haywood, McGuire, Songaila, Pech, McGee, Dee Brown and Etan Thomas is back.

This starting five will guarantee DC to be in the Finals for at least two of the next three years if healthy.

Answer 9

I would pick Howard for the mavs.

Starting Lineup

C-Dwight Howard(20pts and 10rbs 2blk guy which the mavs need This would make them a great defensive team in the post other centers can get past dampier because he is too slow.)

PF-Dirk Nowitzki(Gets you the usual 25pts and 8rbs, always brings along his fadeaways and great shooting ability.)

SF-Josh Howard(Gets you 19pts and 7rbs as long as he doesn't gut sent to jail he's a good baller and when he drives he can be as lethal as lebron when he shoots leave him as wide-open as kidd its still a50-50 chance he'll make it.)

SG-Jason Terry(Gets you the average 17pts and 5 Assists always a consistent shooter he gets most of his shots from dirk when he's doubled teamed now with dwight howard he'll get even more because the other team will be defending the post.)

PG-Jason Kidd( Gives you 10pts 15ast 8rbs with dwight howard on the team he could average the highest ast per game since stockton with all those alley-oops to howard )

This would practically make the mavericks number one in the west. Also instead of Dwight i would also get T-mac to take terry's spot. Because Terry's a streaky shooter. T-mac gets his points by force and skill.

Answer 10

I would pick Lebron.  If you add him to the Warriors line-up they are an instantaneous legit title contender.  For that matter, you could add him to any number of teams and they would be serious threats.  Look at what the man has done with virtually no talent around him.  He took the Celtics to 7 last year, and CARRIED the Cavs to the finals the previous season.  

PG:  Ellis

SG:  S Jackson

SF:   Lebron

PF:  Harrington/Wright

C:  Biedrens

Maggette

Randolph

Bellinelli

Turiaf

Yeah, I think I would take that team.

Answer 11

Instead of D-Wade, cause I want my Lakers to have competition, I would trade Kobe for Brandon Roy.

Phil Jackson is going to love a team leader and team player like Brandon Roy.

Brandon Roy will make everyone look good.

How is it that every player around Kobe sucks?  Even Pau Gasol, a franchise player?  See?

At least the players around Lebron had always sucked.  Give him a franchise star and see if he'll suck.  How is Big Z an All-Star?  Because Lebron made him look good.
