you just need a team that likes playing together and every body knows there roll and doesnt complain.

ya but none of the trade this offseason are about blowing up the team and yes ply that is chemistry.... but even if we do blow up the team it not like chemistry is soooooooo hard to get back i mean look at us the celtics miami(when shaq was traded) and look at the suns they has great team chemisty probably best in the league last 5 years but it didnt work thats why i believe chemistry is overated and yes when you play orginized basketball ie pro collage high school whatever you do play together every day... and yes i played highschool basketball.... i played againsts jarred bayless... when he was at saint marys and i played with lee cummard who playes at byu and almost went into the draft

"You just need a team that likes playing together and every body knows there roll and doesnt complain. " - That is team chemistry. When Pau Gasol got traded to the Lakers, he fit right in. He had high basketball IQ and had great chemistry with the Lakers from the get go. So you already contradicted yourself from the get go.

- As you can see, the Celtics had great team chemistry. Their team defense was AMAZING.
- Chicago Bulls only won their championships after they finally glued together as ONE. The years when MJ did not trust his team mates and did not have great team chemistry was when they did not win.
- If it was NOT about team chemistry like you're saying and it was more about talent, the Lakers should have beat Detroit several years back in the finals.
If it was not about team chemistry, the Houston Rockets would never have won 22 in a row with Yao Ming out.
If it was not about team chemistry, a young team like the Trail Blazers would also not have went on a winning streak.

When you blow up a team, you are risking blowing up team chemistry. But I imagine scouts and GMs try to anallyze if the player they are attempting to pursue is compatible with the team.

Its different with the Lakers because the Lakers don't run pick and rolls, flexes or whatever plays. They run the triangle, and that takes time to master. Ask any Laker if they have mastered it overnight. Don't believe me? Ask Gary Payton or Space Cadet himself, Vladimar Radmonivic.

Ask any championship winner. Ask any wise basketball player thats been there. Ask one thing you need in every championship team, and they will tell you, team chemistry.

If it was not about team chemistry, USA should have won gold.

Im tired of everyone saying dont make trades because it will ruin are chemistry.... when we got pau we almost went 40 and 10 and would have been better if pau didnt get hurt... chemistry is a bunch of bull the media likes to hype. you just need a team that likes playing together and every body knows there roll and doesnt complain. chemistry is made when when its not just work and you hang out and do things other than basketball... dont get me wrong you do need to know your teamates habbits and nueances on the court but being close as a unit is what chemistry really is and th only way you can effect that is the guy u traded for has a bad attitude and is standoff ish stuff like that but if everyone is cool and friends or at least close they are more likely to make the pass or shoot or whatever with no hesitation.....
