Pretty cool idea to give teams a starting 5 based on where they grew up. The Chicago team is stacked if they all stay healthy haha

 

Just for fun, anybody have any idea what the Magic's roster would look like if that happened?

Our frontcourt would suck.

 

A better question...If you can choose one previous star player to build around, no injuries, for their entire career, who and why?

Grant Hill without injuries could have been better than Kobe.

He came to mind. So did Penny but I think I'd go with Tmac.

We'd also have to differentiate between those near Miami and those near Orlando. So Tim Hardaway Jr., Brandon Knight, Trevor Ariza, and James Jones would be on the Heat.

 

Someone with a better knowledge of the counties in Florida should make a starting 5 (of players currently in the NBA)

Here is a link of players from Florida

Shaq would probably be my guy.

There aren't enough players. We'd have Parsons and calathis and that's about it. 10-12 years ago we'd have arguably the best team in the league with tmac, Carter, and Amar'e

Had no idea David Robinson would be considered to have lived in Florida. With this as the case, it's hard to argue against a David Robinson / Amare Stoudemire / Vince Carter / Tracey McGrady / X line-up... however, I guess you could also argue we'd be awful because of our lack of defense to any degree outside of Robinson.

Tmac was a pretty good defender.
