Fun stuff, though they've certainly taken some liberties to give everyone the best lineup possible. I'm still not sure why they've got Shaq in New Orleans though. Sure, he played his college ball for LSU but he was born in New Jersey and grew up/went to high school in San Antonio. Still, if they're going to take such a wide range of liberties with the "hometown" placements then the LSU connection is good enough I suppose.

Chicago's got the best back-court.

absolutely. wade and rose

i think it would be fun to make an nba 2k9 roster with these lineups.

Utah:
I put the Turks here because they’re Muslim. And from what I know about Muslims and Mormons (which I learned from “Big Love” and “The Scorpion King”), they both prefer multiple wives.

Then any stiff from the former USSR goes to Utah because they both begin with “U.” It’s just that easy.

LMAO!

SG - Eddie House
PG - Jason Kidd

Asian-Americans make up a third of San Francisco’s population, with Chinese-Americans

Gooden, House and Kidd had asian in them? Sam Cassell too?

Then the poor Oklahoma Thunder can't even even buy a ticket out of the cellar in a fantasy simulation league. The NBA first team does look similar to this years voting.

The spurs did surprisingly well on this one.

And like in real life the Clippers was somehow doomed to fail.

"Roster Clarification: I put all the busters on the Clippers. Why change history? And we just had to give them this guy."

I think Indiana should have fared far better though.
