 The household names are the stars that can fill it up.  As FAs, you got Lebron, Kobe, Durant, Marc Gasol, Anthony Davis, all within the next two years.

Those guys are obviously necessary to win, but you must have role players that add experience, and toughness to help bring younger players along.  Paul Pierce is a good example, even though I don’t think he’s that tough.  Garnett is another player (Minnesota got worse after they signed him thoguh).

There are some very good FAs for this, even though they may not be huge stars.  You get a couple of tehse guys on your squad in teh next 2 years, it would set the tone.  Basically, I’m trying to recreate the Bad Boys.  This type of player may not be able to "get buckets", but they’d add a competetive edge along with skill.  Ideally they go on teams like Minnesota, Milwaukee, and Philadelphia, OKC, and New Orleans.

 

Draymond Green

Jimmy Butler

Joakim Noah

Rodney Stuckey

 

These guys have my respect as tough grinders.  Would love to see one team go on a FA spree with these guys and bring them all in.
