To appease Dr P's conscience, I actually did not have Eddie lined up this time around...

Any two of these guys would work great, but three is just overkill.
And yet...
I almost took Hill. Was very close but im a Clyde stand and haven't taken him since I've been back, it was time.

Yeah I thought for sure you’d take him.
Of course I assumed he’d be gone by then too.
Maybe I’m just more into Hill than others are.

I like Hill, certainly better than Pierce who was, at his best, around a top 10 player in the league while Hill was a top 5-ish player in the mid/late 1990s.
My biggest reason for not taking Hill is because he really is dynamic with the ball in his hands but I already have KG who is also optimized as a 1B/#2 type guy. I expect to get other players who are 1B/#2 type guys and feel like Hill wouldn't be maximized.
I thought Hill would have been great next to Robinson but Drexler really does a similar thing at a similar level.
Hill really isn't a good fit next to McGrady but Hill was probably a top 15 player in this draft so I dont knock you for taking him now when your next pick is pick #34.

Re: No MVP+Finals MVP Draft (1990-2009) - Discussion thread
Looking ahead I really should have taken Hill. It was a slight mistake and homer pick but I still love my big 2 and am optimistic about what I'll get ar my 3rd/4th

Eh. You’ve still got a better shot at winning this game than I do.

I was hoping Stockton would still there. Great pick. Dominique has been frowned upon before but I reckon he's among the best scorers ever. Great picks.

Re: No MVP+Finals MVP Draft (1990-2009) - Discussion thread
Fair warning, I'm probably not going to be around for most of the day so don't leave any picks with me. In fact, I'll probably have to leave a couple of lists myself.

Laimbeer has my next two picks.

You don't need a true point guard. That perimeter would be a tough match-up.
Comments to rationalize bad contracts - 
1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy

I knew Sheed wasn’t getting past Fade.
He’s not quite Eddie Jones status but Fade does use him a lot.
