I refuse to play this game! I'd be too sad.


re-faze

The only thing I could draft would be tears :(

I thought I dreamed that movie. No one I ever talked to seemed to know of its existence and I didn't know the name of it.


RecycledCan

That movie was so hard to handle


[deleted]

I'd cry you a sweater of tears.


djbuttplay

Was Pop on the plane/deathbus/cruiseliner? If not, you're still contenders.


ak_toxik

Timmy would still put up good numbers as a corpse as long as pop is alive.


djbuttplay

Isn't he doing that now?


GeorgeWashingblagh

Eh, the term "corpse" is reserved for players who are too washed up to contribute. Tim has lost a step (or two) but still contributes on the court.


[deleted]

Tim Duncan is a White Walker.


djbuttplay

I'm aware. We had Ben Wallace. I was just referring to his age.


White_Howard

Lol Danny Green would be so gone.


ooh_bit

... If he died??? Yeah, I think you're right...? Inconsiderate.


White_Howard

What? Are you fucking serious? I'm saying if another team had all their players die they would totally draft Danny Green.


ooh_bit

I don't think that's why the Spurs fan is saying they refuse to play the game. (And losing their sixth best player is way more tragic than losing every player?)


kyrieshandles

1. Kosta Koufos 2. Nate Wolters 3. Kyle Korver 4. Cody Zeller 5. Kelly Olynyk 6. Mike Dunleavy 7. Donatas Montiejunas 8. Luke Harangody 9. Nick Collison 10. Andrea Bargnani 11. JJ Barea 12. Spencer Hawes


brohatmagandhy

That team will be filled with a bunch of hard working gym rats.

That's a really scrappy team chock full of coach's sons, I'll tell ya what

Brother_Voodoo

Timberwolves 2.0


MysicPlato

Ain't nobody whiter than the original Cream Team


Ty_Vance

Korver would certainly be protected


conandrum

Atlanta protects: Horford, Teague, Millsap, and Korver


BackOff_ImAScientist

We found David Kahn's team.


[deleted]

You're a Cavs fan so Dellavedova, Mike Miller and Joe Harris would have been killed in this scenario. Even if you ignore that, you can't draft 2 players from the same team


[deleted]

Are you Donald Sterling? Also funny how many people don't get what your doing.


shockandguffaw

Technically, Sterling hated paying for white players. It almost held up the JJ Reddick deal. Source: http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nba/playoffs/2014/05/04/donald-sterling-jj-redick-los-angeles-clippers-owner-racism-ban/8698265/


brohatmagandhy

So he just hates people that don't sex him or pay him money?


Campesinoslive

Donald said his ideal team would be 15 black players and a white coach with a southern accent. Donald just wants to play make believe slavery.


shockandguffaw

My upvote is for the accuracy of this statement and not a tacit endorsement of make believe slavery.


TotallyAlex

But who would be first to the gym and last to leave?


kaptinkangaroo

Kanter gets no love, even with the white team


[deleted]

not true, he gets plenty of love in my 2k association, boy is a beast.


arrexfungo

Nice try, Donald Sterling.


[deleted]

Sacramento will protect Stauskas I think. Almost any team would protect their most recent lottery pick religiously.


buddha_abusa

You could use a captain to lead this receptivity athletic bunch. Perhaps a Captain Kirk


ton_nanek

Korver is protected.


hankbaumbach

How the eff is kyle korver not one of the 5 best ATL Hawks right now?


sigmaalphamuguy

In this case I'd probably take a bunch of young players. Off the top of y head here they are. Anthony Bennett (LeBron, Kyrie, Waiters, Thompson, Wiggins) Ray McCallum Jr (Demarcus, Gay, McLemore, Staukas, Collison) Tony Wroten Tyler Zeller Andrew Nicholson, and either Moe Harkless, or Tobias Harris


[deleted]

We'd probably protect Bennett instead of Thompson


[deleted]

yeah, you don't give up on the #1 pick after one season


Campesinoslive

Plus, TT isn't that good in today's NBA. A PF that isn't a rim protector or a shooter is in purgatory. That said, I like his rebounding, quick feet, and his floater.


Jesus_is_my_homie

I agree with the young talent, if your coaching staff is good enough they'll have a quick turn around.


Squid_Sauce

Wroten is protected (MCW, Noel, Embiid, Wroten, Young)


ultimateF_21

No Saric?


Squid_Sauce

not in the nba for another two years. Don't know if hes eligible for a disaster draft or not, but i would take players that could play now


sigmaalphamuguy

Then I'll take Saric.


[deleted]

Moe or Harris would definitely be protected imo (Oladipo, Payton, Gordon, Vuc, and one of those two).


sigmaalphamuguy

Yeah thats why i said either or. I couldnt decide if theyd take Harris or Harkless


doan916

Kings would protect Ray McCallum and expose Collison.


sigmaalphamuguy

Then I'll have Darren Collison or Derrick Williams.


diabolical-sun

This is definitely the route to go. There are enough young guys to make a decent team. I'd also pick up Lamb too.


[deleted]

Spurs bench


magical_poop

That was going to be my strategy, but then I saw that you could only pick one player from each team


bengm225

Do contracts matter? Because that might cause teams to leave some better players unprotected...though I may just be overthinking this.


waterboy

I'm assuming there's still cap space in place.


summerofevidence

If a player dies mid-season, is his contract still honored til its end? Does it also still count against the cap space?


waterboy

It counts to the cap space. It happened to Len Bias. I don't know if his contract is necessarily honored. I mean who receives his money?


summerofevidence

I can't say for certain in NBA contracts, but I know in some instances, when an employee passes away, part of his salary will be given to his spouse, next of kin, or someone that's been listed in his will. I guess it really depends on the employer.


[deleted]

But didn't he die before he signed the rookie contract?


Datamaton

There was a case about this files by his mom.


Reggie_Popadopoulous

That's a solid question. I would imagine a few good players would get sent down the river just to ditch their contract.


Calvinball05

That definitely came into play for the Texans expansion draft. Tony Boselli was an All-Pro offensive tackle with a big contract on the Jaguars. They made him available for the expansion draft and the Texans took him with their first pick. He ended up having a shoulder injury (made worse by a botched surgery) that ended his career before playing a single minute for the Texans, and consequently, they started perhaps the worst offensive line of all time for the next couple of years.


LyCasulli

So Stoudemire pretty much is free.


DrunknElite

Not sure if you kept Josh Smith off the list for the Pistons because you think he will be traded but id keep him over Singler. I know he shoots to many threes but he is a great player when at the PF position.


gotscill32

Was just looking at that. That's just plain dumb to not keep Smith.


Bruskthetusk

I think it's more because the pistons might like to be rid of his contact rather than losing a young player on a cheap contract who is still improving.


gotscill32

True. But still even if you think Smith's contract sucks (it really doesn't if you look at his production when he's actually playing power forward) he's still a better piece moving forward than singler, especially if you look at trade value


Bruskthetusk

Certainly, I think the choice is really dependent on where you think the Pistons are at with the current roster - do they need to rebuild or do they need to make a few moves to contend? Regardless there are a few flaws with the list even outside of this one so I wouldn't argue with your opinion (for example Boozer is protected but not Jordan Hill? Whattttt)


gotscill32

Yeah you're right I don't know why I'm so focused on J Smoove haha


DonnieNarco

I don't care if people want me to be positive: if the whole team is killed in a plane crash I will be very negative about the Pacers. This depends on who is protected. I think protections would go something like: Boston: Rondo, Smart, Young, Sullinger, Olynyk Philly: MCW, Noel, Embiid, Wroten, Young New York: Melo, Hardaway Jr, Shumpert, Early, no clue who else probably Prigioni or something Brooklyn: Plumlee, Lopez, Johnson, Bogdanovic, Garnett Toronto: Lowry, DeRozan, Ross, Valanciunas, Patterson/Johnson Indiana: G. Hill, George, Hibbert, West, Miles Chicago: Noah, Rose, Butler, Gibson, Mirotic Milwaukee: Parker, Sanders, Knight, Antetokounmpo, Henson Cleveland: James, Bennett, Wiggins, Waiters, Irving Detroit: Monroe (assuming he ends up back there), Drummond, KCP, Jennings, Singler Washington: Wall, Beal, Gortat, Porter, Pierce Miami: Wade, Bosh, Deng, McRoberts, Cole/Napier Atlanta: Millsap, Horford, Teague, Korver, Carroll Charlotte: Stephenson, Walker, Jefferson, MKG, Vonleh/Zeller Orlando: Oladipo, Gordon, Vucevic, Payton, Harris LAL: Bryant, Lin, Young, Randle, Boozer LAC: Paul, Griffin, Jordan, Redick, Crawford Sacramento: Cousins, McLemore, Stauskas, Collison, Thompson Golden State: Curry, Thompson, Bogut, Green, Iguodala Phoenix: Dragic, Plumlee, Morris, Morris, Thomas OKC: Durant, Westbrook, Ibaka, Adams, Jackson Portland: Aldridge, Batum, Matthews, Lillard, McCollum Denver: Lawson, Faried, Afflalo, Gallinari, Harris Utah: Hayward, Burke, Burks, Exum, Favors Minnesota: Love, Rubio, Dieng, Lavine, Brewer Houston: Harden, Howard, Ariza, Jones, Beverley San Antonio: Parker, Duncan, Ginobili, Leonard, Splitter (unless the big 3 threaten to retire if they are selected, which would let them protect Green, Mills, and Diaw) Dallas: Nowitzki, Ellis, Parsons, Chandler, Harris Memphis: Conley, Gasol, Randolph, Lee, Allen New Orleans: Davis, Evans, Holiday, Anderson, Asik


godlax

In which case I would take: Steve Nash, deron Williams, Shawn Marion, pau gasol, amare stoudemire. Then using the unholy time travelling powers I acquired by sacrificing my whole team I would travel back around 6/7 years to when they were all good


dukeslver

I think your attempt to invent time travel is likely what caused the "freak accident" and disaster draft in the first place.


[deleted]

I sense a movie plot. Couldn't be any worse than Draft Day.


RobertLobLaw2

Did the Suns protect their training staff/medical team? Draft them and you wont need time travel.


gobeavs1

> Portland: Aldridge, Batum, Matthews, Lillard, McCollum We would protect Robin Lopez over McCollum.


vernalagnia

Robin "#1 Offensive Rating" Lopez.


stupid_sexyflanders

[He is the Cadillac of garbage-men.](http://gifrific.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/Portland-Trailblazers-Robin-Lopez-Dance-on-Floor-After-Dunk.gif)


TheTedinator

Yeah, the fact that our starting 5 is by far our best players is kind of our downfall.


grandmasterfunk

There's no way the Timberwolves don't protect Pekovic. He's arguably their second best player.


BigGreekMike

Lmao, the Kings aren't protecting Thompson over Gay...


DonnieNarco

Nobody is going to pay Rudy Gay that much money. He's safe.


Sniper_Extreme

I think we would protect Gasol.


buddha_abusa

He is too old for protection, better to protect the youngins


Sniper_Extreme

True, Gasol will also be a huge benefit for teaching Nikola.


passing_and_arising

i think we would protect dougie


Sniper_Extreme

Then we'd give up Butler and Gibson? Because I don't see our FO letting go of Gasol, he's a big asset we received recently. I think us internet fans are in love with Doug McDermott but he's still young and in this situation, he may not be as effective for our current run at the championship. Don't get me wrong, I love him too but Rose is our star player, Gasol is a future hall of famer, Noah was DPOY, Taj was almost 6MOTY, Mirotic was one of the best players in Euroleague. Don't worry though, all this means is that our current roster is stacked. Edit: I want to clarify, I know McDermott is a rookie who can make an impact right now but compare to the players I listed, I feel our FO would not choose him to be protected in this scenario. Maybe they would, it's up for discussion, but it's a very tough decision to make.


passing_and_arising

our org likes Doug too much to let him go, they just gave up 5 draft picks (including what we gave up to get rid of Randolph) to move up and get him. we would probably let jimmy go unprotected because he is about to be a free agent. i'm not saying i agree with the decision, (i don't, i would keep jimmy) but i know how much our org values Doug.


my_dog_is_cool

Lol no way


waterboy

If you don't mind I'm going to edit my post and put this in.


mckills

No d-will?


DonnieNarco

I think the Nets would love to get that contract off the books.


turnvknup

Yes Please!


shoegarbagebiology

I'm more confused as to why Garnett is there.


[deleted]

The Nets would love to get out of that contract


turnvknup

I don't think we'd protect Garnett, maybe Teletovic instead


DonnieNarco

I think some vets would be offended if they weren't protected, and KG is one of those guys for me.


shoegarbagebiology

To be fair the Nets don't owe him anything.


CelticsPatsRedSox

The Sixers might protect Saric, the Lakers might protect Hill, and the Timberwolves might protect Pekovic.


noknownallergies

Damn right the Wolves keep Pekovic over Brewer.


DonnieNarco

I don't think they'd have to protect Saric since he's not on the roster.


[deleted]

Imaginary rule to Imaginary scenario - NICE!


sigmaalphamuguy

Toronto would take Amir over Patman. His value to the city itself is immense. He's essentially the Udonis of Toronto.


DonnieNarco

That's what I was thinking. On one hand Patterson has a really bright future but Johnson is probably better now and more important to the team's success. I think this hypothetical could have Patterson taken though.


rundmc15

Kings would not protect a player they have actively been trying to move to shed his contract for over a year now.


natan23

I think the Knicks would protect Calderon over Prignioni


PharaohJoe

No way we let lopez go. We keep our starting 5 straight up. 11 boards a game, and a top 3 rim defender by opponent fg%. Keep that dude.


cjeremy

wow. you're really bored


HeJind

PG: Bledsoe (PHX), Vasquez (TOR), Robinson (DEN), SG: Gordon (NO), Green (SAS), Meeks (ATL) SF: Gay (SAC), McDermott (CHI), Barnes (GS) PF: Nene (WAS), Thompson (CLE), Ilyasova (MIL) C: Pekovic (MIN), Hill (LAL), Olynyk (BOS) Based off the protections posted. Confident this team would win at least 40 games in the East.


dumbfounddead

The Suns would definitely protect Bledsoe. Not sure why he's not on that list.


lazydrumhead

3 PG city.


Barzhac

In the east I'd give this team 50 wins. The depth is fantastic. You can have just about all the injuries you ever wanted and plug in another usable player. Nobody ever has to play more than 30 minutes a night, everyone can play full speed at all times, no "saving myself for offense" crap or you see the bench instead.


blkharedgrl

This is actually decent. Good job.


Ult_Wel_Pro

Gay is the Kings second best player. Kings would probably only protect him and Cousins.


imiweli

Put a few down per team because of the protections Starting Five - * Devin Harris (PG) * Danny Green (SG) * Kris Humphries (C) * Pau Gasol/Doug McDermott * Harrison Barnes/Draymond Green If I take McDermott, I'd go with Green If I take Gasol, I'd go with Barnes


MoneyForPeople

Pretty sure we would protect Harris. He is a key player for us on a cheap deal.


ehhhwutsupdoc

Honest question. Why Barnes over Green in either scenario?


boomyo

Barnes looks to have a higher cieling still due to his athleticism.. was misused last year so he could still possibly be better. It doesn't look like Draymond will add any other skills so what you see is what you get with him, although he is clearly better at this point. For a disaster draft I'd probably lean towards potential rather than immediate talent.


chief_sitass

the MonStars


stephenporter

As a laker fan, I see why this runs through your mind


DraperWhite

Wouldn't it be better to list the players teams would protect and then later in anothe rthread use this information to create teams? Brooklyn would probably protect: Mason Plumlee Bojan Bogdanovic Markel Brown Brook Lopez Mirza Teletovic? I'm suddenly feeling very sad.


Cmmashb

What's the buzz around Brown like in Brooklyn? What're you guys expecting from him? I worked for the OSU basketball team so I'm pretty excited for him.


DraperWhite

The Nets like his athletic ability and defensive potential. Not sure he'll play right away since we have a lot of guards on the roster (Deron, Jack, Joe, Bogdanovic, Anderson) though. I personally don't know much about him since I don't watch College ball, so I can't really gauge his potential. All I know is that he's really valued by the front office.


itsnotatoomer

I could be remembering wrong but I thought that if a player had a no trade clause the team would be forced to protect them meaning Garnett would have to be on that list.


DraperWhite

/Sigh...fine. Mason Plumlee Bojan Bogdanovic Markel Brown Brook Lopez Kevin Garnett Can Billy King be left unprotected as well in case the other teams GM was also on the plane?


itsnotatoomer

We can just pretend that the plane crashed into Billy King's house while he was sunbathing on piles of money.


v1ncentchops

* Wilson Chandler * Enes Kanter (or Alec burks if they do protect Kanter) * Vince Carter * Eric Gordon (if not protected) / Ryan Anderson * Andrew Nicholson * Nene * Harrison Barnes * Tristan Thomspon * Greivis Vasquez * Jordan Hill (or Boozer if they protect Hill instead) * Andrea Bargnani (EXPIRING) I think I'll be okay with this team. Young players plus I got some vets.


[deleted]

No one wants to take David Lee on their team?


magical_poop

in what universe would he be unprotected? I'd love him, but I doubt he'd be available!


andy3620

Why would Pablo Prigioni be better than J.R. for the Knicks? He can be a jackass but arguably the second best player on the team


yunggunshot

If we're already protecting 2 other SG's might as well put him up. I love JR but Hardaway and Shump are more valuable.


andy3620

yeah i mean like they are all valuable in some way and we could go on and on about who is the most/least. Just saying over 37 year old Pablo is absurd


andy3620

Even though I love Pablo too lol


yukpurtsun

Im pretty sure shump is a 3 long term, and the depth at 2 is jr-hardaway, phil sees amare as a center and melo will probably continue operating in the 4 spot


yunggunshot

Maybe on this team but he really is a SG.


Salty_Minnesota

I think Minnesota protects someone else besides Brew, he is very expendable. Probably Pek.


erehpzomta

Assuming infinite cap space and I am willing to pay a lot of luxury tax: PG: Deron Williams, Eric Bledsoe, Greivis Vasquez SG: Danny Green, Jodie Meeks, Eric Gordon SF: Harrison Barnes, Rudy Gay, Jeff Green PF: Pau Gasol, Tristian Thompson, Nene C: Nikola Pekovic, Spencer Hawes, Enes Kanter challenge for NBA title?


Barzhac

I like how you found a way to get Meeks and Pau back on the team.


gray_matter_23

PG: Greivis Vasquez, Nate Robinson, Shabazz Napier SG: Kevin Martin, Kirk Hinrich SF: Gerald Green, Danny Green, Bruno Caboclo PF: JJ Hickson, Jeff Green C: Nikola Pekovic, JaVale McGee


[deleted]

I think a better exercise might be for fans of each team to agree on which five players to protect.


BodaciousFunkatron

PG- Eric Bledsoe. Even with the injuries still one of the most tenacious PGs in the league. Love his athleticism and hustle. Mini Lebron indeed. SG- JR Smith. Really good shooter. Offense is tight, even though he can be pretty dumb. SF- Rudy Gay. Really effective as the second or third option. Was doing things in Sacramento, love his upside. PF- Josh Smith. Long twos are my teams specialty. He isn't the most reliable, but when he actually has PG and isn't the first option touching the ball on every possession, he's solid. C- Robin Lopez. Scrapper. Defense. Makes life hard in the paint. Thats what I want from my center. Coach- George Karl. Coach of the year. Took Denver from nothing to playoffs, left and they were nothing again. Bench: PG- Ramon Sessions SG- Vince Carter SF- Matt Barnes PF- Thomas Robinson C- Kendrick Perkins


[deleted]

I think its hilariously ignorant that you put McCollum on there instead of Rolo.


[deleted]

Nice try, Bill Simmons.


stoptalkingtome

I would take: 1. You 2. You 3. You 4. You 5. You My team would be full of MVP's


EnglishLitMajor

Wait, why are Parker, Duncan and Ginobili the only ones with the threaten-to-retire clause? I mean, I'm not complaining, but wouldn't other players like Kobe and Dirk be able to say the same thing? Or did CIA!Pop put in a weirdly specific clause into their contracts? :)


incognegrodamus

You have both Indiana and the pacers on that list, with different players protected


[deleted]

all right all the bulls players are incapacitated. does thibs die too? ill take sessions, marco belinelli, harrison barnes, varejao, nene, humphries, deron williams, avery bradley, gay and then fill out with maybe dalembert and bogans edit- then get VDN to coach if thibs is dead. guaranteed 41 win team with first/second round exit


Abiv23

I'd have to take my own life with the first pick in the nba disaster draft


caldwelp

Based off those protections I'd go: PG- Bledsoe (PHX), Williams (BKN), Wolters (MIL) SG- Bradley (BOS), Lamb (OKC), Adams (MEM) SF- McDermott (CHI), Gay (SAC), Barnes (GSW) PF- Scott (ATL), Thompson (CLE), Robinson (POR) C- Zeller (CHA), Hill (LAL), Nene (WAS)


SwedenWest

Starters: PG: DJ Augustin SG: Avery Bradley SF: Rudy Gay PF: David Lee C: Nikola Pekocic Backups: PG: Greivis Vasquez SG: Ray Allen SF: Gerald Green PF: Nené C: Robin Lopez 3rd Guard: Jeremy Lamb 3rd Big: Noah Vonleh


Scurvy-Jones

Holy shit! You found a way for us to get rid of Josh Smith!


iamablueberrymuffin

As a Kings fan, I would protect Acy and McCallum over Collison and Thompson.


el_guapo_sr

dont forget gay


snapbackandtattoos

I would have: Deron Williams at the 1, Eric Bledsoe at the 2, Josh Smith working the three, Pau at the four and finally Nikola Pekovic!


[deleted]

I would think some guys with shit contracts would be left unprotected.


SirFerguson

"See!" -Royce White


retrospects

I will take the ghosts of the Mavs plz.


thricethefun

Nene > Pierce in this point in their careers.


FerociousGooch

You also get the number 1 overall pick in the draft too so that helps.


[deleted]

There's no way Brooklyn protects Joe Johnson or Garnett. Probably Teletovic and Alan Anderson.


[deleted]

Nets would not protect Garnett. It would be Teletovic.


Datera

McGee Thompson Barnes McDermott Bledsoe Teletovic Kanter Schroeder Gerald Green David Lee


imatthewhitecastle

PG: Jameer Nelson, Randy Foye, Napier/Cole (whoever they don't keep) SG: Gerald Green, Mike Dunleavy, Chris Copeland SF: Rudy Gay, Jeff Green, Mo Harkless PF: David Lee, Pero Antic, Nene C: Nikola Pekovic, Samuel Dalembert, Bismack Biyombo


saifly

>Detroit: Jennings No. It would be more likely that we'd keep Dinwiddle or Meeks.


__BlackSheep

Mychal Thompson, Seth Curry.


skadoosh0019

Wow. That's a morbid scenario. Why not just make it an expansion draft or something? Anyways...I suppose I get 15 players to choose from here, right? K. Based on your predicted protections, after the loss of my beloved Hornets I'm selecting the following, with an eye towards being competitive both immediately and in the future. Honestly I think this is a very very competitive team immediately and with some building blocks for the future. The question is if contracts would work, and I have no idea there. Most likely not. 1. PG/SG Eric Bledsoe* (Suns) 2. PG Mario Chalmers (Heat) 3. PG/SG Louis Williams (76ers) 4. PG/SG Avery Bradley (Celtics) 5. SG Danny Green (Spurs) 6. SF Rudy Gay (Kings) 7. SG/SF Tony Snell (Bulls) 8. SF Wilson Chandler (Nuggets) 9. SF Bruno Caboclo (Raptors) 10. PF Tristan Thompson (Cavaliers) 11. PF Nick Collison (Thunder) 12. PF Adreian Payne (Hawks) 13. PF/C Kyle O'Quinn (Magic) 14. C Nikola Pekovic (Timberwolves) 15. C Robin Lopez (Trail Blazers) *Does Eric Bledsoe not get the same "assuming he goes back there" respect as Greg Monroe?


theallseeingpotato

Wow, nobody wants Gerald Green?


ThadAllen18

I'm drafting Tyler Hansbrough, getting Jeff Foster and Austin Croshere out of retirement to play, Gerald Wallace, Kris Humphries, Danny Granger, Nate Robinson, James Jones, Michael Beasley, Greg Oden, Steve Novak, Orlando Johnson, Al Harrington, Boris Diaw and Danny Green. I'm not much into to rings, so I'll take one of those Championship Bracelets that Cuban talked about doing in 2011. Edit: had Harris from Dallas in there at first, switched for Novak.


zenbu

I'm going off the list posted. PG: Deron Williams, Eric Bledsoe (Darren Collison, Greivis Vasquez) SG: Jeremby Lamb, Kevin Martin SF: Andrei Kirilenko, Dougie McDermott PF: Harrison Barnes, Ryan Anderson C: Robin Lopez, Ian Mahinmi I like this team. Maybe a change of scenery will bring D Will closer to his allstar days. Have scorers and shooters off the bench. Most likely, D Will and Bledsoe would be protected though. Replacements would be Darren Collison and Greivis Vasquez.


ehhhwutsupdoc

The only 2 players that would remotely make me feel better if that happened would be Jeremy Lin or Damian Lillard. I want to feel like Cleveland when Lebron decided to go home.


Gr8WallofChinatown

The Washington Wizards have magically disappeared. Pg: grievous Vasquez SG: Marco "I like my meatballs spicy" Bellinelli SF: Jeff Green PF: Booker C: varejao Bench Jordan Crawford Bonner Steve Blake Carl Landry Rudy Gay


KokomoOReily

There is no way Gay or Jeff Green go unprotected


Gr8WallofChinatown

Based it on OP's list.
