Dumars was a 40% three-point shooter as well

(lower volume though)

He was my 2nd guess at #70. Imagine Wilkins/Bird.

I'm still not sure that if I made the right move by grabbing up a super role player instead of The Human Highlight Film.
Your team has insane amount of scoring, that's for sure.

Will be hard to stop.

DHodgkins has by far the most stacked team so far. I mean - five 25 PPG scorers in the same starting lineup?

This team is crazy talented, but I don't know if I agree with such philosophy of building a team.

I'd rather take someone else for Wilkins. The player I'd take played in the same era as Nique, but he was clearly more efficient as a scorer, more fundamentally sound and played better defense.

Oh, and Hodgkins doesn't have any reliable three point shooter on his team. Drexler is the best in this regard, but in general, he was very inconsistent as a jumpshooter.

Oh, and I LOVE ThunderDan's team. Such an awesome fit and shooting in the backcourt.

I wanted to pick a 3 & D player but the one I wanted was ineligible due to games played

I like my team so far, I think it's in the top three along with ardee and O_6

I love Bruh's team but doesn't have a true center yet so im interested in who that will be

Batmana has the all 1992+ team thus far. lol I'm curious as to why CaliBullsFan hasn't picked a certain ball dominant little guy. IMO Hodgkin's team has 3 overrated players, but teamed up together, they are explosive.

ardee's and O_6's teams are a fav of mine though I've already talked about their teams already. I like notanoob's team. Hakeem in the middle with Bosh as a stretch 4. Then you have wing players like Pierce and Carter. Of course, I like my team the best: center who can score and protect the paint a little, peak TMAC who can create his own shot and a playmaker himself, GOAT 3 point shooter who has a little play making ability, and 2 very underrated players who defend well and score efficiently.

Since this is largely the bench portion of the draft for me, I'll likely be focusing on specialists and role players to fill in gaps.

eight shooting guards got taken in the 5th round so i'm really glad harden wasn't one of those selected. and i'm glad I got sabonis.

Post #648 » by **Quotatious** » Mon Jan 13, 2014 2:32 pm

Dammit, I was hoping that Sabonis will be still available at my pick, he'd be a great backup for Zo... :evil:

he could almost be starting ahead of zo

Well, I think I would try a big lineup with Sabonis at center and Zo at PF, at least for a few minutes in a game.

HeartBreakKid really nailed it with Gervin. Huge steal at #79. Artis, Karl, Doc, Iceman and Stockton?

There's A LOT of talent right there. HeartBreak's and Hodgkins' teams are the most stacked, although I'm not sure if they really fit all that well together. I think Malone and Gervin may've not liked playing with each other. Otherwise a really great fit. Doc can slide into whatever role is necessary and excel, Stockton and Malone need no introduction, and Artis as a defensive anchor would be great to go along with them, like a way superior version of Eaton.

If I didn't already have a 30 PPG scorer, I'd gladly take one of them who's left, and who will likely be an even bigger steal than Gervin.

ardee · Post #652 » by **ardee** » Mon Jan 13, 2014 3:42 pm

Fit-wise john248 has my favorite team.

Two unselfish guys capable of being the first option in Kareem and T-Mac, who are also great defenders. Most dead-eye shooter in NBA history, an explosive point guard who's also a 40% shooter, and a beast defensive PF.

Still can't get over the fact that Rice fell to me though

ThunderDan9 · Post #653 » by **ThunderDan9** » Mon Jan 13, 2014 4:54 pm

I'd like to see the Magic-Worthy-Kemp fast-break. :lol:

(Their "plan b" would not be so great though - at least on this level.)

MisterHibachi · Post #654 » by **MisterHibachi** » Mon Jan 13, 2014 5:15 pm

I really hope I can avoid the Yao /McHale front court in the playoffs. My tallest guy is 6 10.. My wing defense has to be the best tho. Iggy will probably come off the bench, not decided yet.

I think our philosophy of building a team is actually pretty similar, if we disregard stylistic differences. Just like me, you also wanted to build your team around a dominant bigman and a superstar two guard (even if Wade is going to be your point guard), and you've also chosen players who are considered as 'role' players in this draft by many, like Marion and Iggy (equivalent of Billups and Odom on my team) instead of taking only superstars (like DHodgkins did, for example), and finally, you also have a high scoring small forward like Melo (I have Mullin).

Pretty much the only major difference is that my center is first and foremost a defensive anchor, and your is an offensive anchor.

Oh, and unlike you, I didn't really want to build a 'smallball' team, it just kind of happened on its own. :lol:

Seriously, I didn't have any specific plan of how I wanted my team to look like, I've just taken the player who I thought was the best available player with my first pick (Kobe) and then I tried to figure out who would be a good fit next to him.

you might have trouble against some of my lineups too.. 7'3 sabonis, 7'0 gasol and 6'9 kirilenko with his 7'4 wingspan?

and great pick heartbreakkid, I think kevin Johnson was absolutely the best player left on the board, by a decent margin too.

I'm gonna try to rectify my lack of size. Going with a defensive big man.

You don't even know who I'm thinking of! Lol

But the way you've picked all 90s guys, I might actually be thinking of the same guy haha
