Yeah Doug Christie was definitely one of the wings I was considering E-Balla. So if the rest of you guys could refrain from picking the others that would be great...

Cooper, Odom and Horry were GREAT picks. I really wanted Coop, would've been a perfect backup guard for my team (but that can be said about basically every team here).

Lately I watched a lot of the Rockets' games from their championship seasons, and I was very impressed with Horry. Very high basketball IQ combined with amazing athleticism and effort level, made him a fantastic complementary player. Odom is even better, obviously.

With three reserves, anybody who drafts a great tweener big, tweener forward or combo guard, is a lucky guy. There's no better example of that, than Cooper and Odom. Both such versatile players...

Shaq-Pau-Posey-Kobe-Kidd might be the best 5 to me. Hibachi's team is the strongest right now IMO easily. I don't see his bench being too good though.

Ye thats a really good team but I would not say easily strongest, it might be the strongest but I could see austin carr or some other teams have a decent shot to beat Hibachi's team imo

All of my favorite role players are gone now :( . With my back to back picks, I will select Walt Frazier and Chuck Hayes.

I will go with Rudy Gobert 2014-2015 season.

Image

5.2 fga per game. Can't create for himself but he gets putback dunks and alley oops. fg% 60. Not terrible freethrow shooter so if there is a hack a Ben I can put him in instead.

His defensive impact is huge. He got the Athleticism, smarts and the length to be defensive stud

Damn, better late than never, they say...Frazier is a top 25/30 player of all-time, gigantic steal at this point of the draft.

It'll be a very difficult decision who to start between Clyde and Penny, I guess...Or do you plan on starting both of them?

Just playing my man, but you obviously must have missed my lovely Noah pick in your praising the picks right around mine.

With Nate and Coop off the board I'm still in need for a great defensive PG. At this point there's only one I can take so I'm selecting 1979 Don Buse (7.0 FGAs).

Image
He took on a smaller role this year but there's 3 thing Buse could do: pass (lead the ABA and NBA in assists his last 2 years in Indiana), shoot (shot 33% from deep for his career and 35% and 39% in his two 45 FG% seasons where we have his 3 point numbers and he was 49.5% from the field the year I chose), and play defense (6 time first team All D, 2 time steal leader, and he's anchored a number one defense before). Takes more shots than I'd like but I'll find a way to fit my starting SF on this team somehow.

Team Square takes their second Sonic in a row in Brent Barry.

Any young'ns who only saw him as a spot up guy in San Antonio missed out on an elite shooter who added great athleticism and creative playmaking.

Bones! Had my fingers crossed, but was wondering when someone was finally going to snatch him up. One of my favorite players to watch in his prime. Great versatility as a playmaker.

A Walt/Penny backcourt would abuse small guards. Problem is I don't think anyone has 2 small Gs.

Yeah I really wanted him but I realized I had enough offensive GS on the team already. He's a great pick this late in the game is even say he was expected to not pass this round.

Who starts would depend on who I can select with my last two players. There is so much uncertainty with having to wait 30 picks that I just try to keep my roster flexible for any potential lineups.
