Rank top ten assets on your NBA team
 

I'm bored. Thought this was kind of interesting. Disregard salary. Even though Al Jefferon only makes 2.48 million this year, he obviously will cost a lot more in the future, so he's not exactly a deal.

The only two considerations should be age and talent.

Celtics

1. Al Jefferson, PF
2. Paul Pierce, SF
3. Ray Allen, SG
4. Rajon Rondo, PG
5. Ryan Gomes, PF/SF
6. Kendrick Perkins, C
7. Tony Allen, SG/SF
8. Gerald Green, SG/SF
9. Glen Davis PF/C
10. Gabe Pruitt PG/SG

This is a good way to look at team depth. With Tony Allen still coming back from surgery, shows me that Celtics are really only 6 deep with actual NBA talent. This is not good. If people could all do their own home teams that would be cool.

Re: Rank top ten assets on your NBA team
 

1. Kevin Martin
2. Ron Artest
3. Mike Bibby
4. Spencer Hawes-Played very well in Summer League plus only 19.
5. Brad Miller
6. SAR
7. Justin Williams
8. Kenny Thomas
9. Salmons
10. Mikki Moore

Not really excited about anyone on the team. I like Ron Artest and Kevin, otherwise I really don't like the rest of the roster all that much.

Warriors

1. Andris Biedrins, C
2. Baron Davis, PG
3. Monta Ellis, PG
4. Stephen Jackson, SG/SF
5. Al Harrington, PF
6. Marco Belinelli, SG
7. Brandan Wright, PF
8. Kelenna Azubuike, SG/SF
9. Stephane Lasme, SF/PF
10. Patrick O'Bryant, C

What this tells me is wow, we had a lot of FA this offseason. It also tells me that when we cross off #'s 3,7,10 off this list in a few weeks and add #3 Kevin Garnett, PF/C that we'll need to add some players to this list.

Over-reacting a little from summer league? Would you really prefer to put B-Wright in a deal than Marco?

That's my only complaint about your list. Otherwise, I like.

Re: Rank top ten assets on your NBA team
 

Disregard salary? That kind of defeats the whole point. A lot of a player's value comes from his salary , the length of his deal, and his tradability.

Larry Hughes is not a bad player, and at his old rookie salary he would be a tradable player. Making 14M? Not so much.

Well I took your original post to mean right now, in terms of age and talent, who is more important to your team. Right now Belinelli can run, shoot the 3, and handle the ball all very impressively. All of the utmost importance in Nellieball. In terms of whose future is brighter, I would take Wright (but it's closer than I think I originally thought), but right now, Marco is a much bigger asset to this team (and anyway Wright is shipped off in couple weeks when the 30 days are up).

NYK

1. David Lee

2. Zach Randolph
3. Eddy Curry
4. Stephon Marbury
5. Nate Robinson
6. Jamal Crawford
7. Quentin Richardson

OK, I cannot do this anymore. I would like to just cut every single player on this team except David Lee.

Nash X 10

Re: Rank top ten assets on your NBA team
 

Milwaukee

1. Michael Redd
2. Andrew Bogut
3. Mo Williams
4. Charlie Villanueva
5. Bobby Simmons (could go as high as 2/3 if he proves himself healthy)
6. Charlie Bell (assuming he resigns)
7. Yi Jianlian (assuming only his trade value)
8. Dan Gadzuric
9. David Noel
10. Lynn Greer/Ramon Sessions

This will likely change quite a bit as the Bucks still have a lot of offseason moves they need to finish off.

OK I give up, is Webber a FA or something?

Also, GKA, I'd answer your question seriously but once I get to around the 7th guy there isn't a whole lot of difference between the rest of them.

this question is impossibly difficult for the suns, so ill rank them in terms of MVPness instead

1. Nash
2. Stoudemire
3. Marion
4. Bell
5. KT (if playing the spurs he could be as high as #3, can be as low as #7 if playing other teams)
6. Barbs
7. Diaw (with Amare out he was the 2nd-3rd most important on the team at times)
8. doesnt matter

the question is ASSETS. you think the bobcats would have taken Jackson or Harrington for Wright?

1) Monta Ellis
2) Andris Biedrins
3) Baron
4) Brandan Wright
5) Stephen Jackson
6) Marco Belinelli
7) Al Harrington
8) Azubuike

I really only care about the top 6. I'd be fine with trading one of 'Ta, 'Dris, and Brandan along with others for KG, but obv one of them isn't enough, and i think the core of those three young players is awesome and should not be broken up.

Indiana Pacers

1. Jermaine O'Neal (someone plz trade for him!)
2. Danny Granger
3. Jamaal Tinsley
4. Reggie Miller?

God, this is too depressing, someone finish it for me.

Re: Rank top ten assets on your NBA team
 

I think GKA got everyone in the youth movement by starting (correctly) with Al Jefferson. Some people's choices are pretty off. AllInDan at least saved his Golden State brethren. There's no chance Biedrins is their top asset.

Also disagree with Tayshaun being DET's top asset, though this one is closer, because Tay is proven and really good. Actually, I'm torn on this one. I guess I don't really have a complaint.

Suns are really close. I probably put Amare #1, though I'm sure plenty of teams would pursue Nash over Amare if he were available.

Josh Smith over Joe Johnson? Are you crazy? The kid is 25. I like Josh Smith a lot, but money aside, JJ wins.
