    I was just wondering if you were an NBA player would you rather play limitted minutes on a top team or start on a bad team??

    I would make this a poll but i don't know how to do it.

    Depends. Have I already won a championship? How old am I? How good am I?

    If I'm young, I'm starting on the bad team.

    starting on a bad team. the bad team will be a contending team after a few years and most of that will be because of me :) , which will later make me a rich ass mug

    Bad team. They can't suck forever. Even the Clippers made the playoffs that one year.

    Start on a bad team, but it depends on how limited my minutes will be on that good team. I want to make my money to support my family and I, but also don't mind being a role player on a championship caliber team.

    WTF? Hell no if I was young I'd rather play limited minutes on an elite team. It's a chance to learn and win a ring while I'm young. Then I'd have the rest of my career to worry about myself. Look at Tony Parker, he completely choked in his first NBA finals so they used Speedy Claxton instead. But now Parker has learned from it and is an elite pg with multiple rings.

    I'd rather be on a team filled with nice players who care more about the team winning than their own stats.

    Alot of things factor into this. One would be your pay, another would be how good you consider yourself to be.
