There is no question that all of those guys are talented but that team isnt contending for a title. Lebron is going to get someone. That team that you have assembled isnt going to beat lebron+ (joe johnson?) and whoever else they have. It isnt beating the lakers.

Moving the 3 pt line changed the game and teams that can't consistently knock them down don't win. Period. Teams that don't pass, don't win. Period. I think you are just being stubborn because obviously you know this stuff.

Its a moot point regardless.
Have you watched Rose play? You are nuts saying he is shoot first PG. He has been forced into that role because we have no one that can make a shot. Matter of fact, he was TOLD to shoot because of how bad they were playing. They are now playing much better and things have opened up for everyone.

If they got just one of the two you guys are talking about, they are a top 3 team next year in the eastern conference, but if they got both, they would chew up teams, just based on their toughness.
