Bill Laimbeer

Can shoot mid range, rebounds well, and excellent toughness inside as a team defender.

Surprised no one picked Melo he is sometimes very underrated on this board. He can do it all: shoot the three, very good mid-range game, can post up, great handles, excellent footwork, very quick for his size, and an underrated defender.

Maurice Cheeks. A fantastic peak, very efficient and a lockdown defender.

Myth_Breaker takes Mel Daniels.

sorry for the delay. different time zone.

in his prime he was about as good as Karl Malone, or at least not much worse. I was concerned about PF defense with Cowens (though he made couple of defensive teams) so I went with him. great compliment next to Magic.

CellarDoor takes Arvydas Sabonis.

Baller 24 picks Vlade Divac.

I'm going Larry Nance.

He's one of those elite role players in these competitions. An awesome finisher in transition or from the post, had a good jumper out to 16 feet, and one of the best non-center shot-blockers to have ever played. I'll figure out the rotation later, but gives us the flexibility to have Lucas play some C if need be (as he did with the Knicks against the likes of Wilt), and still have a shot-blocker on the floor with Nance. The worst case scenario is, he's a very good compliment to Lucas's game with his athleticism and defense.

Takes talent to rip three cities at once.

At least he didn't have to take a shot after every first down.

fml.

Saints deserved it. I'm getting Dan Majerle.

that hurt man! I thought we were cool?

The Boned Samuels will pick another guy that we think will be a great fit and select
the 2007 DPOY

Marcus Camby

his shot blocking and rebounding will fit into our bench perfectly. Plus his ability to run the floor will fit into our uptempo system.

We now have Parish and Pettit starting and a bench of Oakley, Camby and even Matrix logging some minutes at the 4 (as well as Worthy). our BIGS should now be complete
