80s / 00s Cross-Eras Draft Thread: On To Round 6

[wackbone]

I'll take Elton Brand to give me some offensive firepower in the front court. I love him next to Dikembe. I'll be using his less-usage but still amazing 01-02 Season. Will quote in a sec.

You're up.

Alright here we go. Pelifan sent me his picks so I'm just making all 4 of ours right here in this post.

First off, give me the best Amar'e replacement out there, a guy who took the sting out of that blow when I realized he's still available



Chris Bosh, a better 2-way big than Amar'e and arguably a better pairing with Hakeem, in either case a very lethal front court duo.

Pelifan will go with an impressive one/two punch of this guy:



Kevin Johnson, one of those all-nba PGs that can be gotten in the later rounds he was talking about earlier

And then this guy:



Paul Pressey, great defender and playmaker at the 3 for very reasonable FGA.

And finally, my other pick is going to be:



Brandon Roy. He always played the 2 but that was a result of Portland's personnel. At 6'6" 215 I think he's perfectly capable of starting at the 3 and he'll be playing a fair bit of backup 2 for us anyway. I use up a lot of my FGA between Bosh and Roy but I think I have a killer starting 5 now and definitely have plans to round out my bench.

Back to you, Bird.

A versatile all defense player who can do all the little things to help our team win...

Scottie Pippen



He almost led the Blazers to the Finals and brings some veteran leadership to our team.

You're up.

Via PM request, dantley selects Alvin Robertson.

For me, I'm thrilled to land a defensive force (for cheap!) who compliments Dirk nicely:
Marcus Camby

Mark Price

Your go

[Tony Snell]

More expensive than I would prefer, but still only 14 shots, I will go with Rip Hamilton. The season I am selecting, he was also a great 3 point shooter.

With the 80th pick in the 80s/00s Cross Eras Draft, ChicagoSportsFan21 selects...

Spoiler:

BUCK WILLIAMS-PF-NEW JERSEY NETS



I just love his work ethic and blue collar attitude that he brings on every play. He's an elite defender who should rise to the occasion against all those elite offensive PFs. Buck Williams forms a stout interior defense alongside Shaq. Good luck scoring inside.

Well that sets my starting five. Kidd with the playmaking, Battier/Williams with the defense while Clyde/Shaq with the offense. Let's go!

PG-Jason Kidd
SG-Clyde Drexler
SF-Shane Battier
PF-Buck Williams
C-SHAQ

Ill take Tayshuan Prince

[damecurry]

Alright, this guy often goes undrafted or like 8th round but I think he's very underrated and after a lot of digging couldn't find a better prince replacement than him. Give me:



All-defensive player, highly efficient on the offensive end, can rebound and assist at a high level. He'll be our versatile backup forward who may even start in matchups where Roy would get beat up too much (e.g.: lebron) Great glue guy for under 10 FGA, just what the doctor ordered.

You again
