You absolutely must have two guys who can protect the rim and defend near the basket. They barely had that in 2008, because Bosh isn't a solid defensive presence down low

With LeBron, Kobe, and KD still on the squad I think they'll be alright.

They're gonna miss Dwight's defensive presence though.
 
I think that the odds that Blake Griffin pulls off a sicker dunk than Vince Carter in the 2000 olympics are quite good.

so no Dwight, Wade, or Drose?

*looks back at full roster*

Has there been any official announcement on who will replace them?
 
Sheesh Chris Bosh out now...Well The All Stars should just withdraw and let the young guys play now we really need size upfront now who replace him now?
 
well with wade and bosh out.. i would go with this group:

CP3, deron and westbrook

kobe and harden

KD and iggy

lebron and melo

chandler, love and davis
 
Are EG and Curry healthy to play? I would love to see LO but

he's somewhere.

I think they let Blake replace Bosh.

Iggy and Rudy would be good. Harden, no clue.

Only if they're stupid and go with one true center. If Anthony Davis is on it, he and Chandler get to tag team protecting the rim. If they go with Blake, it's going to be a non-stop lay-up parade when Chandler sits.
 
Guards: CP3, Deron, Kobe and Russy
Forwards: KD, Lebron, Melo, Love, Blake and Iggy
C- Anthony Davis and Chandler
 
I think with the injury to Bosh, it for sure mean Griffin or Iggy will make the squad...... I still smile everytime I think of Iggy playing PF for us in 2010

Not as good as the 2008 team, but they should be able to win it relatively problem-free as long as they take the competition seriously.
