Wow, no love for Rasho or Sam. How can anyone vote for Marbury as the PG? Where is Cassell in that list? And JR with 80% of the vote is crazy, this is like Team Cancer.

Sam I Am should definitely be on that list! I still think Marbury was a better player though. Marbury was insane when he first came out.

Marbury was flash and a really good prospect, but he turned the ball over a lot and made a lot of bad decisions. His cancer value puts him behind Brandon.

do the Bobcats team, its really depressing.

Maybe you can't select Cassell because Sam (and Spree as well) didn't stay on the team for a long time.

Marbury only played like 30 more games as a Wolf than Cassell though. and Sam was agruably more important.

I don't think that trumps any of the Bobcat selections. Carrol, May, Ammo, Knight?

I actually like Knight over Felton. Knight was an amazing passer. The others suck yeah.

Well, not the best options, but of the list, I put
C: Big Al
PF: KG
SF: Wally
SG: Rider
PG: Brandon

But I think the only real change I would make is to put Googs at PF, and slide KG to SF. I think that makes for a pretty solid team.

The way I see it is I am trying to build the best team. I'm not factoring in Cancer or anything. I am basically looking at it as if all the player had clean slates

I also like how KG was selected by 98.4%. Would be interested in hearing from the 1.6% who didn't lol.

Regardless of how short their tenure was with the team, it's a joke that Cassell and Sprewell aren't on the list. Erving Johnson made the list as a Center and he was with the team for the same time period. It's a joke.

I went Al/KG/Campbell/JR/Brandon. Pretty weak defensive team, but didn't really hesitate on any selection except PG. Just not much options for the Wolves
