Re: My NBA International Team, what's yours? If I were to design my own Olympic type team for International play, this would be it:StartersG: Jason KiddSG: Mike MillerSF: Caron ButlerPF: Shawn MarionC: Emeka OkaforReserves:1. Jermaine O'Neal, PF/C2. LeBron James, SF/SG3. Gibert Arenas, PGRemember that team-chemistry, PR, etc, are all part of creating a TEAM.EDIT: I meant 8 man limit, only 3 bench players.

Marion is your all around dominating guy, Butler can slash you, Okafor can rack the boards, and Miller will swish you a 3-ball. All with Kidd dishing it out.Also my team is a studly defensive lineup. Okafor is the block master.Marion is top 5 in steals, top 20 in blocks.Butler is top 5 in steals.Kidd is top 7 in steals, and 3rd among PG's.

Re: My NBA International Team, what's yours? PG - Kidd - Obvious choice, better than Paul and Deron, arguably as good as NashSG - Arenas - beast mode, plus he would have a chip on his shoulder from getting kicked off last timeSF - Shawn Marion - Does it all, can defend, drive, rebound, score etcPF - Dwight Howard - got 25 rebounds in one game. tahts all i should have to sayC - Timmy Duncan - quietly will help the team, boards and defender. BN - LeBron (SG/SF/PF) - would start, but RIGHT NOW, Arenas is better in international playBN - Wade - (PG/SF) - Great coming in for Kidd or ArenasBN - Okafor (PF/C) Purely defensive, would knock heads and block some shots and get some rebounds
Re: My NBA International Team, what's yours? Any team without LeBron would work IMO.PG - Jason KiddSG - Gilbert Arenas SF - Gerald WallacePF - Carmelo AnthonyC - Tim Duncan BN - Caron ButlerBN - Joe JohnsonBN - Kevin Garnett

Re: My NBA International Team, what's yours? Nash is out, he has double citizenship, but he said that he would play for Canada
Re: My NBA International Team, what's yours? Forgot it was US. Just put Kidd in Nash's spot and Paul on the bench in Kidd's spot.
