I would look for:

a C with good ID, rebounding and SB along with some good secondaries. no need for high IS.
a PF with good rebounding, ID, jump shot and jump range
a SF with jump shot and jump range, but also OD and ID/SB because of your 2-3
and two guards with strong passing and handling and OD. too much JS/JR just makes them expensive.

Not the Miami Heat, but South Beach Heat. The OP and I are in the same league with them; he'll understand the comment.

From what I have read and some people I have talked with say the Key to a good Motion Offense is having 5 guys who can Handle the Ball, Hit a Jump Shot, and Pass the ball well. Look for guys (Big Guys as well) with JS ability, Handles, and Passing on top of the other things you would look for.

The Key to any defense is having you 2 Guards with high OD, your SF with High ID and OD, and your Big with high ID.

For the type of setup you look like you want I would prioritize JS over IS on your bigs. You still want decent IS but if you found a big that was a 10 in JS, 10 in IS, and 14 in ID I think that would suit you better than a guy that is 6 in JS, 12 in IS, and 14 on ID saying the handles and passing abilities are the same.

You can try out the lineup simulator on Buzzermanager and choose 'outside offense' and see what it gives you for your best lineup. Sometimes the results are surprising.
