Who do I want on my NBA team?

Starting Team

PG- Chris Paul

        Well Chris Paul is the best all around PG in the league, the thing that makes Paul stand out from all the rest of the point guards is his ability to decipher from when he needs to score and when he needs to make plays for his teammates. He has the long range shot ready in his holster and has the wonderful ability to find players for the OOP. Downfall is his size he is just small, but the wonderful thing about Chris Paul is he has learned how to use his size to his advantage and has solidified a career of pure success. 

SG- James Harden

       I had a really hard time picking a shoot guard with so many dominant back court players in the NBA now. I did not go with Kobe, mainly because of his age and he can have trouble with teammates. Dwayne Wade is also a little to old so i went with who i would want on my team for years to come. James Harden has a unique play style that is different from so many other guards now. He can be a knock down jump shooter and get hot hot hot. He also is one of the bets players in the whole entire league at drawing fouls on the drive and has a high percentage free throw. He gets the ball to the hoop and scores either in the basket or is going to the line. Also he is very underrated with his passing ability. He could be a point guard for a team if they needed one and he would be successful he just has more options at the two guard position. 

SF- LeBron James

      Do I really need to explain myself with this pick. He is the best player in the league by far and could be the best player to ever step onto a court. He is big, strong, and consistent. He can score from anywhere on the floor and at the same time is a defensive monster. He can play any position and he does play them all. And even when he is not shooting well (which is not often) he is still a dominant player with through the pass and the defense. 

PF- Kevin Love

      At first I had David Lee at this position but I feel incredibly dumb for forgetting Kevin Love. Love is by far the best Power Forward in the league when healthy. He has range on a very consistent basis and is one of the highest rebounders in the entire league! This man hits the boards. He also is very underrated in his low post scoring. Love is a coveted player with his ability to rebound and score from anywhere on the floor. 

C- Dwight Howard

       Dwight is the best center in the league he is just more dominant in a physical nature then them all and just can do more then all the other centers in the league. He rebounds, blocks, dunks, and does everything you want from your big man in the middle. Not much more you can say. 

Bench Team*

PG- Jarrett Jack

        Jarrett Jack would be the point guard I choose off the bench. He is a great player at controlling a game off the bench and can be a leader. He also can be a starter in a time of need say an injury or end of the season when you want to rest your players. He can be instant offense as well being a spot up jumper for three. He is not the best passer off the bench but can get the job done and play well. 

SG- J.R. Smith

        J.R. Smith is one of my favorite players to watch in the entire league. His skills are so underrated and he could be starting on more then half the teams in the league. He is so good at getting hot in any game as soon as he comes in the game. He has a beautiful jump shot from the 3 point line and is stunningly athletic and can just make some absurd plays that blow your mind. He is a very charismatic player, but if he gets in a game he can pull a crowd to their feet by his play style. I would want this player on my team for sure. 

SF-Wilson Chandler

      Wilson Chandler another athletic player that can hit a jumper. He is not as consistent as I would like but he is so big and long that its hard to turn him down. He is a good scorer and a fairly good rebounder for his position. Another player that if he gets going he can shoot the lights out. And the best part is he is still improving his game and that is a good quality to have in a player who has been in the league for five years and he is choosing not to settle but to continue to get better. 

PF- Nick Collison

      Why is he not talked about more in the NBA, you only hear about Nick Collison if you watch a Thunder basketball game but he has been in the top three players of there plus or minus rating for the past couple of years and is just a smart, smart basketball player. He takes charges and is really durable. When he is on the floor the team just plays well and he is good at letting other players shine while he does the dirty work, hence his high plus minus rating. He is just a great ball player who is just trying to win games and not worry about the story being about him. i want this player in my locker room and playing on my team.

C- JaVale McGee

      He gets a bad rap but I love this guy. He is an exciting player to watch. He does not have the highest basketball IQ but he has wonderful size and he wants the ball. He blocks shots out of the arena and is a dunking machine. He has enough moments of wow for me to pick him to be my back up big guy on the floor. 

*These are all players who are actually bench players in the NBA right now and that's why I did not choose players like Kevin Durant or other stars for the back ups.
