SamBones selects

Stromin Norman Van Lier

One of the toughest little men to ever play and a def wizard.

I would like to select Don Buse.

A 70's player who could knock down the open three 1 out of 3 times, which was good considering he was a 70's player, mostly. He was a clutch shooter and a great defensive player who led two different leagues in assists and steals in two different seasons. One of the better all-around Pacers to play, he garnered several consecutive all-defensive team selections and posted an impressive A/T ratio (4.something, I didn't do the math) in many different seasons. Not much of a volume shooter, but one that could be counted on. Next to scorers Majerle and English for the second unit, Buse will flourish as a backup.

Thanks warspite for posting,
we again go with a fit pick to add even more toughness and even more defense to our bench. Stormin' Normin will be a perfect backup to Nash and while logging minutes with MJ could team up to stop almost any guard combo in the game

^^Elmore Smith and Hal Greer were more "damn" than Durant.

Meh. Remember this is Durant from last year, still a great player but in an ATL context it's a pretty ballsy pick. Though its late in the draft so not a huge risk or anything.
