    I read what the person said about the Chicago Bulls and that's just wrong. You don't attempt to make a push at the championship by surrounding KG with rookies, players in the league 1 year, and TJ Ford, plus Hinrich shoots better. Too much of a growing process that would set them back 2-3 years.

    I would keep my nucleus of Hinrich, Gordon & Deng. Package one of those two 1st round picks with Nocioni (restricted free agent so sign and trade) for KG. Take the other one (depending what number it is ) and draft one of these guys...Noah or Horford, since they have declared. Oden and Durant has not. Plus, the Bulls dont need more perimeter scorers (Durant) we need physical experienced big men that know their way around the paint.

    And keep in mind that Chicago is a defensive minded team. bringing in rookies, and trading away our best perimeter defenders doesn't sound like a solid championship formula to me.

    My Chicago Bulls starting lineup would look like this...

    C - Ben Wallace

    PF - Kevin Garnett, at his normal postion.

    SF - Luol Deng

    SG - Ben Gordon

    PG - Kirk Hinrich

    Bench would include...

    Noah or Horford

    Tyrus Thomas

    Thabo Sefolosha, who the Bulls really like.

    Chris Duhon

    In the NBA playoffs you need a solid nine man rotation (The 88-90 Pistons used 8). There's not an offense in the NBA that could score easy with this lineup. Additionally, the Bulls would have 3 more guys to build this franchise around for the future in Thomas, Noah or Horford, and Sefolosha.

    He also mentioned that Ben Wallace only plays defense. I thought defense wins championships.

    I would be the General Manager of the New York Knicks because they aren't the greatest team and there is a lot of room for improvement. Also, because I was born raised, and am now currently living in New York. I am a long time New York Knicks fan and I love all New York sports. Basketball is my favorite sport to watch and play. I remember when I was a kid, I wore a lot of Knicks memorabilia. The New York Knicks are the team. They have good players, but they don't win much. I love the players. If they didn't have all these great players, the Knicks would be on top. I'd really have to look into who would make a great addition to the team though.

    i would pick the chicago bulls because they are a young team with a lot of promise. in the draft, if i could, i would draft kevin durant and brandon rush (if i had high enough picks) because these players were amazing in college. i would then trade andres nocioni, pj brown, and ben gordon for kevin garnett, then kirk hinrich for t.j. ford because with all those new high-scoring guys you need someone to pass (t.j. averages 8 assists, hinrich averages 6). i buyout ben wallace because he can't play offense, only defense while kevin garnett can play both.

    the starting five would be:

    PG: T.J. Ford

    SG: Thabo Sefolosha

    SF: Luol Deng

    PF: Kevin Garnett

    C: Tyrus Thomas

    Reserves:

    PG: Chris Duhon

    SG: Adrian Griffin

    SF: Brandon Rush

    PF: Kevin Durant

    C: Malik Allen

    how can you beat that?

    we will be everywhere from a million'st to 4'th position contained in the vital (The Indians are undesirable, ha ha ha ha ha!!!!! I hate the Indians....). i imagine the Kittens will come back off to Earth or maybe as the Royals get Soria back they receives more advantageous positive. With the White Sox, i'm apprehensive about Colon now that the elements is warmth. It helps our hitting, notwithstanding it probable helps the different team's hitting besides. I is in simple terms no longer confident on him till he proves to be alright to the All celeb destroy. So i'm nonetheless going with my round 80 one-80 one prediction, although i don't think of it is going to take a lot more advantageous than that to win the dept.

    Well my dad is currently one of the lesser managers for the Boston Celtics so I think it's actually better to be one of the lesser managers because you still get free court side seats and the owners club but you dint actually have to work 24/7

    Dodgers: Except I would put Loney at first and put Garciaparra at bench, put Anderson at third and Betemit at bench, put Kemp RF, Ethier in LF, Gonzales at bench. And, please, no Hendrickson, ever - send him back to basketball.

    Make Broxton a starter in place of that irritable . .. I forgot his name {Penny). The rest of the team appears to be o.k.
