Forgotten Stars - Discussion

[Laimbeer]

A bit surprised to see Buse still there. I'll be playing a little smaller than I planned.

[Timmaytime]

I thought about Bobby when I picked Sid the Squid. Obviously went with Mason instead, mostly because of Jone's lack of minutes in his cheaper years.

[pelifan]

When you see how many minutes I'll be playing him, you'll be proud.

You definitely have a very weird, interesting rotation.

Mr. deRegt, that is how I roll.

If you'd have taken peak Don Buse or Terry Porter instead of Sheed your team would be really really scary. As of now it's just we have the best duo scary.

Don Buse? Really?

I did say in the Sheed post that I had no idea what I was doing. i stand by that

[MadNESS]

All the exceptions are used.

I'm taking David Thompson with mine, in case I'm not around.

Good fit with Nash and Pippen.

[GeorgeMarcus]

Nice pick OT. Hayes is definitely one of the better 2-way players of the bunch. I was surprised he lasted this long.

Any thoughts on who else could have been included in the forgotten stars? We could double down at some point with an expanded list and require two with like 45-50 FGAs for the other six players?

Bdregt got prime Artis Gilmore in round 6. I'd be lying if I said that doesn't make me regret taking Duncan over Bird in round 1....

[Statlanta]

Walt Bellamy, Mel Daniels, Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf, Calvin Murphy, Kiki Vandeweghe

[GeorgeMarcus]

I nominate Z Bo

[Snakebites]

Man, David Thompson as the last exemption. Another thing that would have changed my strategy if I'd known it.

He was on a very early shortlist of mine. I wanted him, McAdoo, or Gervin.

[Timmaytime]

I nominate Z Bo

He'd probably be a pretty high pick

I had to go to pretty shallow bench with Joel Anthony backing him up versus my original plan of waiting on center and trying to get a DAJ and Tyson Chandler but Gilmore is too good to pass up on and like his fit with my team of shooters.

Center is just a crazy deep position when go 70s to present. I don't know if it makes sense to take any center in first round just because gap between Wilt/Shaq/KAJ/Hakeem/Robinson isn't that big over Ewing/Gilmore/Malone/Dwight. Mostly though, 70s to present without any real restriction just has left all teams stacked. I mean I have Curry/Bird/Gilmore and not sure I have enough talent to contend.

Eddy Curry

[GeorgeMarcus]

Yeah, no question compared to most of the guys getting mentions. But I can see Z Bo earning a spot if we apply this concept to modern era or something.

Blake Griffin is another guy that comes to mind.
