    This is just for fun and it takes a small bit of research to do this correctly but here is my challenge.
    Put a starting line up plus one bench player together. Here are the rules

    1. Use one from each class. Meaning one player that came straight from high school, one that came out after his freshman year of college, after soph year, after jr year, after sr year and one from overseas (never played American ball). Whichever class you pick per position is totally up to you. And the bench player can be any position need.

    2. It has to be a full team with each position filled. Meaning no four gaurd line ups or a group of power forwards. Balance the team with one of each: pg sg sf pf c. If they can play more than one position such as Dwight Howard playing pf or c then that is acceptable.

    3. The player have to be currently playing in the NBA now. No Michael Jordan or other retired players. And no future players such as John Wall.

    Here is my team

    Straight out of HS- Labron James ’03 starting sf
    Freshman- Kevin Durant ’07 starting sg
    Sophmore- Chris Paul ’05 starting pg
    Junior- Al Horford ’07 starting pf
    Senior- Tim Duncan ’97 starting c
    Foreign Player- Paul Gasol 6th man

    Durant used to play Sg. He doesnt anymore. I dont remember Lebron playing it ever. I know they both could do it but they dont. Im guess im just looking for something to disagree with, sorry. Players and their positions have become ridiculous. My team is:

    PG – Chris Paul(Soph)
    SG – OJ Mayo(Freshman)
    SF – Lebron James(HS)
    PF – Tim Duncan(Senior)
    C – Shaquille O’Neal(Junior)
    6th – Yao Ming(International)

    But Durant has and can play shooting gaurd. When they were still in Seattle and before Westbrook came along they played him at shooting gaurd. As far a Lebron, he also can play the shooting gaurd but agree both are suited for sf roles. Just how I put Tim Duncan at center but at 7 ft he has been known to play the center role and excells at it even though he is really a pf in most NBA games. Damn couldn’t think of another star senior player other than him but Roy is a great catch. I’m surprised nobody picked Kobe for their HS player yet. I was close but kept James.

    Griffin should count but not Jennings. He’s not officially a foreign player, he is an American that played one year of ball overseas. Cuseflynn should pick a different player I think. But then again he could count since he doesn’t really fit into any of the other selections.
