I think Ellis will start pg with Azuibuke at the 2. Love may start for the Wolves. Jeff Green will probably start over Mason.

Yeah I had no idea whos gonna play point for GS as Ellis is purely a SG big loss with Baron going IMO they may fall a lot this yeah. Same too Milwaukee as Mo Williams was a solid PG for them.

Would think Raja Bell would start over Barbossa. Dont htink Gordon will even be in Chicago to start and I reckon they will start Hughes over him anyway.

Ridnour to start over Sessions (at the start of the season at least)

Chicago
[/B]Hinrich (debatable though)
Gordon
Deng
Gooden
Noah
Derrick Rose to start, without a doubt. I can't see both of Hinrich and Gordon being in Chicago on opening night. Possibly one, but not both.

Golden State
Marcus Willams?
Ellis
Magette
Harrington
Biedrens
Monta Ellis to start at the point, Azubuike at the two, S-Jaxx at the three in Golden State. Maggette off the bench.

Houston
Alston
McGrady
Artest
Scola
Ming
Battier has to start at the three. Personal numbers aside, the team is so much better when Battier is on the court. I can see Adelman either going small and starting Artest at the four, or starting Scola and having Artest playing significant minutes off the bench. I think the latter would be most likely.

Houston's walking a very fine line, here. Artest could put them over, but if they don't find a role that keeps him happy, he won't be effective. Likewise, if they blow up a 55-win starting five to accommodate Artest, the team could go significantly backwards.

LA Clippers
B.Davis
R.Davis
Thornton
Kaman
Camby
This has bad chemistry written all over it.

LA Lakers
Fisher
Bryant
Odom
Gasol
Bynum
So does this.

Miami
Quinn
Wade
Marion
Haslem
Blount
Beasley will start, without a shadow of a doubt. Probably start Haslem alongside and throw defense out the window for the short-term.


Milwaukee
Sessions
Redd
Jefferson
Villanueva
Bogut
Ridnour would be a good fit for this starting lineup. I really, really like his acquisition, actually.

Toronto
Calderon
Parker
Moon
Bosh
O'Neal
Where does Bargnani fit into this equation? The more I think about it, the more I dislike Jermaine O'Neal's acquisition.

Good effort, though :thumbsu:

J.R Smith
Iverson
Anthony
Martin
Nene
As a nuggets fan I would love for him to start, but obviously coach Karl isn't keen on having 3 shoot first players on the perimeter, so Anthony Carter should get the nod if we resign him, if not look for Chucky Atkins or an incoming pass-first point free agent to start shifting Iverson to the 2

Terry, Ginobili and Gordon have been ripping it up as sixth men. I can't see any reason why this won't change.

Apart from a few spelling mistakes, not a bad effort.
