Which starting 4 would you rather have?
A - Steve Blake, Young Brandon Roy, Young LaMarcus Aldridge and Martelle Webster
B - Andre Miller, Hobbled Brandon Roy, LaMarcus Aldridge and Gerald Wallace (or young Nic Batum)
C - Damian Lillard, Wes Matthews, current LaMarcus Aldridge and Nic Batum
With Greg Oden being out, the three centers would have been Joel Pryzbilla, Marcus Camby and JJ Hickson. Each of the centers would have been flawed and slightly below average for starting centers.
I think options a and b had much better supporting casts than the current team, but I think the starters are pretty close. While there's no doubt Roy is the better player, I think Lillard and Matthews could prove to be a better tandem than Blake and Roy. And obviously the current Aldridge is better that his version from his first 2 or 3 seasons.
I think the current line up with a legit center and a little more fire power on the bench could be fun to watch.
