The Miami Heat have one of the worst...Posey, Walker, Haslem, Simien, Wright...Other than Haslem it's pretty rough, James Posey isn't very good at all. I actually don't mind the Knicks forwards that much, they lack star power but it's not too bad.

He is a solid defender, can hit clutch threes, and is a good veteran leader.
Suns are good: Stoudemire, Marion, Thomas, James Jones, Diaw if you want to call stat and KT forwards

I think overall he's an average NBA SF at best.

I'd call all of those guys forwards but as for our forward rotation I'd take KT out of there and maybe Diaw. Stoudemire should go back to his real position. I love that roation. It is one of the best but I like the Clippers' rotation more, especially with Amare not playing as good as before for this year at least.

Hawks...Josh Smith, Marvin Williams, Shelden Williams, Josh Childress and even Joe Johnson plays some 3.

BCB Miami doesn't have the worst. I disagree. Walker, like him or not, does a lot of things and was an All-Star what, 3 years ago? Haslem is a double-double threat every night, Simien has a nice future, and Posey is much better than you make him out to be. Posey doesn't show up greatly on the stat sheet, but he does a lot of things (hustle, play defense, hit open 3's, provides size/length). And shooting consistancy has nothing to do with leadership.Another one that hasn't been mentioned is Indiana. They have an excellent forward rotation. Jermaine O'Neal is an All-Star, Al Harrington puts up boarderline All-Star numbers, Danny Granger is an excellent young player, Stephen Jackson (SG/SF) is a 17+ scorer, Shawne Williams is a good future player, and even Rawle Marshall is a versatile athlete. I think they are definitely near the top of the list.
I'd hate to say it but seattles forward rotation isn't nothing to brag about it's just 2 good starters out of wilcox and rashard and collison and wilkins off the bench. Rashard is the only player out of those 4 who we all now will put up decent numbers. None are all-stars. Shard is a star player tho on the sonics. Collison has to step up and has the ability to do so seeing his output during this years preseason. Wilcox this preseason was PATHETIC.( But maybe it was to conserve his energy). We will see this season. Wilkins did very good for a bench player. Overall, I'd say the sonics is one of the worst. if collison and wilcox don't consistently step up. throughout the season.

Rashard Lewis is a 20 point scorer and athletic, Chris Wilcox is an athletic beast (don't worry about him in preseason, it's just preseason, you saw what he could do last year), Nick Collison is underrated and a very solid backup, and Damien Wilkins is a guy that provides energy off the bench. Also, add Danny Fortson in there. As much as I dislike Fortson and as much as he's a foul machine who I recommend anger management to, he is a very good rebounder.
just for now im underrating them, but I noticed mickeal gelabe or however u spell his name is playing this season and he could prove to be a good SF after a few years.
I'll put a few more teams not mentioned. I think when healthy, the Jazz have a pretty good foward rotation.Jazz-Andrei Kirilenko, Carlos Boozer, Paul Millsap, then Matt Harpring, Ronnie Brewer, and C.J. Miles will also catch some time at the 3 spot. One of the worst is the 76ers. The starters are above average, but not much depth. Chris Webber, Andre Iguodala, Shavlik Randolph, Alan Henderson, Rodney Carney, Kyle Korver,

I like the Pacers the best though, my reason why is desribed best in a post from CelticsBalla.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Another one that hasn't been mentioned is Indiana.

The Jazz are not top three for me. They are injured too much.The Clippers are probably number one in my opinion. Maggette scores in bunches, Brand is Mr. Consistency, James Singleton had an impressive rookie year, Tim Thomas has reemerged from his poor days at NY, and Quinton Ross might even see some forward minutes, for his defense.
This may be a homer pick, but witheRaptors:Chris BoshMo PeteJoey GrahamJorge GarbajosaKris HumphriesPJ TuckerWe have a good forward rotation. It's not one of the best, but it's up there.Some Others:Best-NuggetsCavsTWolvesClippsMavsWorst:KnicksWarriorsHeatMagic
I don't think that Miami has a bad forward rotation, and just like PF11, I'll quote Celticballa32 on this one.<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (CelticBalla32 @ Oct 29 2006, 11:14 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Walker, like him or not, does a lot of things and was an All-Star what, 3 years ago?
