The real winner here is the Bobcats board. I feel so lucky to be part of a community that is so knowledgeable when it comes to hoops - and not just the current players and game, but the history of the game and it's players.

Power to all you - and thanks.

How about "Big Dog" Glenn Robinson not getting picked! He was one of the best small forward scorers in the late 90s. I considered picking him a few times, didn't do it because of his ball hogging and turnover tendency though. Surprised to see that nobody else wanted him.

Another good selection I forgot about. I think there were a few scorers like that over the years though, I guess most people were looking for players who brought more than just scoring.

Terry Porter? Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf? Allan Houston? Rony Seikaly? Jerry Sloan?

Terry Porter was one that I wanted... I thought a guy who was big and could shoot would make a great backup to Isiah. But because I botched my categories there was nowhere to fit him in.

#1 Slam

I really like this team. His starting lineup is a lot like mine and the way versatility is nice. Perimeter defense in Frazier/Jones, Post defense in Russell/Eaton. Shooters in Reggie/Mullin. And a big man who can pass. I don't really see any holes in this unit and they can match up with just about anybody


#2 Lamar

Hakeem/McHale are two of the best offensive bigs to play the gaame. The two of them are going to be a chore to stop. Connie's prime is super underrated, and Laimbeer is a nice post defender. Where this team lacks is that Ellis is really the only outside shooter, so other teams can clog the lane on the bigs and make life difficult


#3 Sachmo

I really like the passing of pretty much his top 8 players. Bird and Walton is a really interesting pairing and the Payton/Mookie PG rotation is really tough. The lack of true scorers is what moves this team down in my eyes. With all this passing, having a guy that is a flat out alpha (scoring) male makes them super scary

Stockton, Kidd, Payton, Isiah, Pippen, and more get worked in this video. There's nothing I love more than watching Timbug work fools
