    This is what I am guessing the teams will look like depending on the McGrady trade. Which team do you think will be better?


    PG: Steven Francis / Jameer Nelson
    SG: Cutino Mobley / DeShawn Stevenson
    SF: Grant Hill / Keith Bogans / Pat Garrity
    PF: Drew Gooden / Dwight Howard
    C: Kelvin Cato / Nigel Dixon / Andrew DeClercq

    PG: Jameer Nelson / Tyron Lue
    SG: Tracey McGrady / DeShawn Stevenson
    SF: Grant Hill / Keith Bogans / Pat Garrity
    PF: Juwan Howard / Drew Gooden/ Dwight Howard
    C : Andrew DeClercq / Nigel Dixon

    The first one IMO. Why? Becuase we have Drew Gooden with no Juwan next we don't have Andrew D. starting the we just have a better line up from there. There's just no contest IMO

    Team 1 is more balanced, so it gets my vote. Team 1 could easily make the playoffs in the East.

    Team 1 for sure. With that lineup we'd be good to hit the #5 or #6 in the East :mrgreen:

    Where did Nigel Dixon come from? And why is he in it?

    Nigel Dixon is a 6'11 320-350 lb. center from Orlando (Edgewater HS) who started his career at Florida State. Transfered to Western Kentucky for his senior season were he averaged a double-double with 15.9 points and 10.3 rebounds a game.

    Many people thought he would be taken in the second round so he will be a pretty good pick up in the free agent market. His game is very physical and he uses his size and weight to push other centers out of the post. He is very effective unless the offensive player has a ten footer in their game because he is a little slow and can't get out to cover very well.
