as I said in the other thread Ray will get about 25 MPG, and I plan on acuiring another SG at some point as insurance.

Major defensive holes at the 2 and 5. I don't know about Lopez being a starting center, think it was just looking for a tall guy to play there. Depends on how you fill the bench but Allen and Lopez may need to come off the bench.
The Nets will finish with the worst record and the Celtics will end up with the 4th pick.

Mile High City Nuggets (thru 7)

PG: Damian Lillard      /   Kyle Lowry
SG: Courtney Lee        /   [some Lillard and Webster minutes here]
SF: Wilson Chandler    /   Martell Webster
PF: Greg Monroe        /   [some Varejao minutes here]
C : Andrew Bogut       /   Anderson Varejao

I've been confused by this team since Harden was shipped out. Monroe is not a true pf and will not be out on the perimeter on defense and if he does, he will likely get beat out by the faster 3 an 4's. You have three legit starting centers and only one of them is starting...at center. BPA sure, but I would have moved at least one of them. Two starting pgs where even if one or both play some sg, someone will lose minutes (probably Lowry). Package Lowry or even Lillard and VareClown for starting sg or multiple bench players at the 1, 2, 4 spots.

Washington Wizards
pg: John Wall
sg: Klay Thompson/Mike Dunleavy
sf: Evan Turner/Toby Harris
pf: Amir Johnson/Toby Harris
c: Joakim Noah/Spencer Hawes

I liked this team when it was Wall and Noah (and Klay I guess) but after that I'm not sure what happened. I don;t see real talent from the 4/5th rounds unless you made trades. I would package Turner and Johnson/ Hawes for a solid pf and let Dunleavy start. If I did end up taking him over Barnes, I thought about starting him.

Jeff Teague
OJ "I get buckets" Mayo
Jimmy Butler, Matt Barnes
David West, Andray Blatche
Tim Duncan

Added Barnes and Blatche. Capable vets who can play scrappy, score, and defend while accepting bench roles. Looking to grab a capable backup pg and a random 4/5 next.

Also, Timmy approves the "new" team logo.

I know its just rehashing an old trade but if you could have kept that 4th rounder and given up a later pick or maybe got back a 6th and 7th rather than an 11th and 12th, you are one of the top teams in the league.

For instance if you got 6th and 7th rounders instead of 11th and 1th you could also have Kosta Koufos and Courtney Lee on your team. or Gerald Henderson and Andray Blatche. Suddenly, you have a completely different team.

As for the team that you do have, its a very good start but you have two 25 MPG role players in the starting lineup. Lopez, like his brother, is a poor rebounder for a 7 footer. He can D up okay and dunk really well but....And Ray is what he is. He's a sharp shooting 3 point specialist scorer who you have to limit to 25 MPG max.

Even with the superstars, you are a fringe playoff team right now, at best.

I'm not gonna lie. I have no idea what to make of this team. There isn't a focal point. It reminds me of last year's cleveland cavaliers with Lillard playing the role of Irving and Monroe playing the role of Tristan Thompson.

Thank you for the feedback but disagree on a few things. I will however save the counter arguments when the pressers comes up.

With better defensive and shooting wings and a deep bench and two rim protectors?

And Im sorry, I was going to save the counter arguments for the pressers but I just cant help it.

Greg Monroe > Tristan Thompson. Cant compare the both, skill wise, size wise and impact wise. Sorry but, just no.

I really like the talent you've assembled here, I'm just not sure how it fits.

Bogut/Monroe/Varejao is a nice front court, but a bit redundant.  Unless Bogut is able to play big minutes (not at all a given), the spacing is going to be questionable.  Also, with a Bogut's injury hostory, it just seems like a bad idea to have the backup be someone with their own injury history.  This has been discussed quite a bit, though, so I digress.

As for the back court, I'm just not sure Lillard is ready to handle the load he is going to be responsible for here.  Individually, Lee, Webster and Chandler are good role players, but they need a ring leader.  I'm not ready to say Lillard can be that guy.

Ultimately, unless Lillard can make a huge leap in his 2nd year, I see issues with scoring.  Your front court will likely hold you bck from being an uptempo team, but the back court parts seem like they would be better suited to play fast and free.
