Clair this is a new argument i am trying to bait you into. If you are starting a franchise today in the NBA. Who would you start it with any player or players. Im going to get Kobe Bryant he is the best in the world. Kevin Garnett Chauncey Billups Tim Duncan Carmelo Anthony
I say Kobe because I am a homer. But when it came down to it probably Dwight Howard because of his age.
1. Dwight Howard 2. Lebron 3. Melo 4. CP3 5. Kobe (he is he best in the world, but he won't be the best player in the world in 2-3 years) 6. Al Jefferson 7. Brandon Roy 8. Bosh 9. Wade 10. Yao 11. Durant 12. Boozer 13. Amare 14. Dirk (also playing the age angle) EDIT: I forgot KG, but he would be probably in the 6-9 range.
I'm sorry but can we keep to calling Chris Paul, Chris Paul? CP3 is gay. With that said , I would choose Christopher Paul.
name me a marketable player that doesn't have a nickname. you don't live in Louisiana, but if you did, you'd know that pretty much everyone here calls him CP3 as his name. lol like Shaq is for Shaquille O'Neal.
