    ... who would it be?

    Roy for his playmaking?

    Oden for his inside dominance?

    Aldridge for his inside/outside game?

    Rudy for his flair?



    Tough call, but I think I'd have to go with Greg for his ability to just absolutely rip down any board and finish at the rim on every play.

    Since I suck at basketball, but I'm big enough to deliver some really hard (ie dirty) fouls I'll take Brandon.

    Yeah, I'd probably go Greg. B/c I'm smaller, and you don't get that many guys who can guard 7-footers with hops in a pickup game.

    I have played against very quick 6'6 guys.

    Raef! Because he has the bank to buy dinner afterwards!

    If it's just for fun, Rudy.

    If I had money on the game, Roy.

    If I'm playing against a guy as mediocre as myself and an NBA quality player, I'm going to take Roy. If I'm playing against two NBA quality players, then I think I'll take Bayless just to give him some PT, but I don't think it really matters. If I'm playing against two guys as mediocre as me, then I'll take Raef with the bum shoulder because he'd still be light years ahead of us.

    I'd pick LMA. I'd handle the ball, he has a shot and would grabs boards. Although I don't miss much so he wouldn't really need to rebound :).

    Back when I was single? Fernandez. You just know he's the kind of buddy who always has 5 hot chicks hanging around him after the game. One of them will probably settle for you after you get them drunk.

    Now? Przybilla. I may not win, but I won't get divorced either.

    Rudy or Roy simply because i want to have fun while im out there playing and both of them make the game more fun. Playing 2 on 2 with a big man like Oden wouldn't be fun simply because of how imposing he is and that every play that would be run is an Oden Dunk.

    Last night my wife was telling me how she thought Rudy was a dreamy hot piece of ass. That gave me a chuckle.

    Brandon Roy, and I'd get out of his way.

    "Nah. You take it. Just take him, Brandon"
    ...
    "Game, who's next?"

    Not a surprise. But I'm with you on this. I have a feeling Rodriguez would be pretty spectacular in playground ball.

    I'd take Bayless. That guy has something to prove.

    I'd take Greg. With two guys hanging on him, I'd put up fifty from outside. :chestbump:

    Rudy, that man is an And1 highlight reel waiting to happen. Even if we end up losing I'll make millions on the royalties from the DVD sales.

    Travis. I would just throw the ball up in the air and yell "go get it boy" and Outlaw would just alley oop it.
