I was torn between this guy and Leonard. As is often the case, these choices are made for you. :lol:

Let's give Dream a great point to work with.

I normally prefer not to pick the same guy 2 drafts in a row, but I want a low FGA big man for now and this is the best one available...

Man. Really tough call here.

Gotta go with my gut and take this guy.

There really aren't many players in this game that can have a genuinely elite impact on the game at well below 10 FGA per game, and I'm tired of weak links in my starting lineup.

One of the best rebounders in this game, and a guy who can guard pretty much anybody on the court. Probably the only player to ever be used defensively against Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, and Shaq. I'm also taking the pre-meltdown version.

Reggie Miller.

Gives me an elite shooter next to Erving's slashing and Walton's post passing.

Super efficient offense and a great follow behind shooter on fast breaks

Can somebody please quote the next guy for me?

Risky pick and it might backfire but give me Charles Barkley
