I got defense but now is time to get some shooting so why not start with a guy who in the season I am choosing shot 54% from beyond the arc.

Kyle Korver

Give me Danny Green 14' 7.4 fga
Elite athlete, defender and Three point shooter. He raised his game during the playoffs and was so impactful

In 23 minutes per game he had these stats
47.5% 3pt shooting on 4,4 attempts per game, 65% ts%, huge impact on offense and defense. 7,3 bpm.

He will make the game so much easier for my other players by spacing and elite defense ( can guard multiple positions ) :)

I'll take Mo Cheeks. Great defense and solid playmaking from the point guard spot. Completes my starting lineup pretty well.

It's time to give Magic a running mate... his original running mate - a guy who can run the fast-break with him, finish in transition and above the rim and who can also score from the mid-range, on excellent efficiency... None other than Big Game James.

Sorry for the delay. I'll take Brent Barry here.

Image

Such a crazy underrated and versatile player who could defend extremely well, shoot and score at an absurdly efficient clip, and run the offense in stretches, and play any of the perimeter positions.

I see him playing the super-utility backup role on my perimeter.

As anyone would predict, quite a few power fowards who are strong low post scorers have been picked - Duncan, Garnett, Mailman, Kemp, Stoudamire, Wallace, Webber, etc. I'm going with someone who has the chops the handle them on the defensive end and give them someone to worry to about on the offensive end. In fact, i'm going with an ivory towers alignment

Image
1981-1982

Jack Sikma

He played a lot of PF this year in addition to C. 2nd team All-Defense, #1 in Defensive Rating and Defensive Win Shares for the season. No one is blocking his reverse pivot overhead jumper. Between he and Ruland I will have no rebound worries, plus exceptional passing from the 4 and 5 spots.

I'll grab Klay Thompson here. Adds another elite shooter and defender to complement Shaq.

I'll take the only 3x Champion that is in this photo, that hasn't been drafted yet:

Image

Rick Fox

Gritty defender, great hustler, great role player, will hit the open shot, know how to play with stars, and is an elite glue guy.

Really wanted Metta here (nice pick btw Hawk Eye), but we think Fox might actually be the better "fit".

I have just enough FGA to fit him in and a low FGA guy in the last round and he is too good to not be drafted even if I can't get him at his absolute prime. With 17 FGA, I'll happily take an all-star and 2nd team all-NBA with a line of 21.9 ppg, 8.2 assists, 4.6 rebounds, and 1.9 steals with a PER of 23.6 and 9.4 Win Shares that only plays better against top players. The biggest competitor in the NBA today....

Russell Westbrook

Give me Anthony Mason ( not sure yet which season )

Image

Great defender that can guard multiple positions from Micheal jordan to Hakeem Olajuwon.


He really was effective against Olajuwon
