I'll go with Charles Oakley. Nice cheap backup PF, great defender, solid mid-range shooter, good rebounder which is something this team will destroy at with 2 of him, TD and Big Ben always on the court. Yeah, he'll do nicely.

I'll take Maurice Evans. Solid shooter off the bench. Can someone please quote next?

Good defender and the type of dynamic playmaker my team needs:

Kind of a tragic waste of a great player as I can only take his 92 season when he was old and struggling with injuries and shot very poorly but he was still a good creator and defender of course and I only need 8 mpg from him, only have 3.2 FGA so he's about as good as I can get and it's not my fault no-one took him before now.
I'll take Paul Pressey.

Its not often you get to take a guy in round 8 who has an argument to be made as the best player in his chosen season, but here we go.

Image

I select 1975 MVP Bob McAdoo.

I don't think he's ever been selected in these games outside of an auction setting, and I find that ironic.

In many ways, Bob McAdoo was ahead of his time as a big man. In an era where many big men operated in the post exclusively or nearly exclusively, he had a great shot, was highly mobile, could run the floor, and anchored the 4th best and second fastest offense in the chosen year.

If his prime hadn't been cut short he might have started the power forward revolution a decade early.

Fun fact: at 17.8 Win Shares, only 12 players selected in this game have a season with more than that, and of those only 6 actually have seasons used in this game greater than that.
