If Hometown Heroes played for the Home Team
Depressed Fan posted up a very interesting piece about what the NBA would look like if there was no draft and people had to play for their local team. Needless to say, the Celtics would not be very good. Scoonie Penn and Wayne Turner might have a shot to play in the NBA if this was the case.
Here's the Beantown squad:
PG Will Solomon (East Hartford, CT)/Will Blalock (Boston, MA)
SG Demetris Nichols (Easton, MA)
SF Matt Bonner (Concord, NH)
PF Courtney Sims (Dedham, MA)
C Marcus Camby (Hartford, CT)
Yuck. The Celtics would swap destinies with the lowly Bobcats who'd have a ridiculous squad.
PG Chris Paul (Clemmons, NC)
SG Ray Allen (Dalzell, SC)
SF Josh Howard (Winston-Salem, NC)
PF Antawn Jamison (Charlotte, NC)/David West (Garner, NC)
C Kevin Garnett (Mauldin, SC)
