    If you could pick 1 more superstar to add to the Rockets roster, who would you pick? I'd pick KG, since he's extremely talented, has a great work ethic, and is one of the nicest guys in the NBA, he'd work great with Yao, who's also a nice guy. [​IMG]

    realistically........Pedja Stoyakavich (I know I butchered the mans name). But he's going to be free agent soon, and I heard somebody mention how nice it would be Pedja, Tmac, and Yao on the court. We should have some cap room

    Nash...we have All-Stars at center and the wing spots, so we'd need a PG...and Nash would complement perfectly...he runs the fast break, looks for the open man, and is an outstanding shooter...and while hes not the greatest defender, he still has Yao, Swift, and Deke protecting the rim for him...

    I'd go with Mike Bibby. He's clutch. Clutch enough for Clutch City, plus we need a PG.

    I love this topic. I can go two ways with this:
    Andrei Kirilenko at the 3 and T-Mac at 2; or Swift being the 4-5 backup with Kirilenko at the 4. Man, that would be an awesome lineup. All the offense and defense you need.
    Similarly, I feel like a low lory guy who could thrive in this system is Wally Sczcerbiak. He has a scaled-down, slower/lower to the ground version of T-Mac's game (philosophically). Inside/outside, shooter/slasher, think about it...

    I see what you're saying... Bump Wesley, huh? Sura's injury, right?... I feel you on both of those, but with Anderson and Allen in the back-court, would you play a quick-to-half-court offense, or would T-Mac run the Point Forward?

    Not happening. This thread doesn't add anything productive to the forum and none of the superstars mentioned would be added for free.

    Thread locked.
