Right now? Lebron James is probably the best option to compete for a championship

The question centers around which is more necessary for winning a championship.

Based on the fact that more strong defensive/average offensive teams win than strong offensive/average defensive teams, I'd say defense is more important.

Ofc, most championship teams have stars that are great on both sides of the ball.

Yeah, hence giving up Gay's closing ability for better defense and slightly better overall offense is a good move.

I'd argue that what you get from Prince on defense doesn't match what you get from Gay on offense though.

But it's not just Prince's offence, it's all the volume of shots Gay takes away from the team offense that can be put to more efficient use.

Spurs getting destroyed on the boards, already given up 5 offensive in the first quarter. Miami also getting a ton of mileage out of baseline cuts. Another classic Ginobili play to end the quarter -.-

That's on the coach's gameplan, not the player. If you retool the offense the way they did after the trade, maybe give a few more touches to Gay than Prince (obviously) then there's no reason that that team wouldn't be better.

Yea but lets be honest the Grizzlies make way more money this way, and can maybe extend their talent and pick up a 3&D on the market or in a trade.

Duncan seems to be able to score at will when they a run a play for him. Why don't they use him more in the fourth quarter while they're guarding parker so hard
