PG: Ron Harper (24) | Kobe Bryant (24) | Lamar Odom
SG: Kobe Bryant (16) | Trevor Ariza (32) | Bruce Bowen
SF: Bruce Bowen (24) | Lamar Odom (24) | Trevor Ariza
PF: Pau Gasol (38) | Lamar Odom (10) | Hakeem Olajuwon
Cc: Hakeem Olajuwon (40) | Rick Mahorn (8) | Pau Gasol

1st - Hakeem Olajuwon - 94’ (21.2 FGA) MVP
2nd - Kobe Bryant - 08’ (20.6 FGA) MVP
3rd - Bruce Bowen - 03’ (5.8 FGA)
4th - Pau Gasol - 10’ (13.0 FGA)
5th - Ron Harper - 97’ (5.3 FGA)
6th - Trevor Ariza - 09’ (7.3 FGA)
7th - Lamar Odom - 10’ (9.0 FGA)
8th - Rick Mahorn - 95’ (2.6 FGA)

Total: 84.8 | 85.0

Roster Breakdown:

Decided to surround Kobe with his championship style team. Instead of Bynum, Gasol, Odom and 3 and D guys, we have Hakeem, Gasol, Odom and ELITE 3 and D players around him.

Kobe and Hakeem are a killer 1 - 2 punch, and Gasol as a third option is awesome. Throw in Harper, Bowen, Odom, and Ariza and you have some of the greatest role players of all time around that big three.

We can defend, shoot, rebound, block shots, run the break, everything. We match up well with anyone, dude to having Odom and Ariza on the bench. This is one of the better teams I have created in these games, that’s a fact.

PG - LeBron James (24) / Rajon Rondo (24)
SG - Mitch Richmond (40) / Gerald Henderson (8)
SF - Peja Stojakovic (38) / LeBron James (10)
PF - Draymond Green (30) / Pascal Siakam (12) / LeBron James (6)
C - Ben Wallace (38) / Draymond Green (10)


2012/13 LeBron James - 17.8 fga - NBA MVP / All NBA 1st Team / All Defensive 1st Team
2015/16 Draymond Green - 10.1 fga - All Defensive 1st Team / All NBA 2nd Team
1995/96 Mitch Richmond - 16.9 fga - All NBA 3rd Team
2001/02 Ben Wallace - 6 fga - DPOY / All Defensive 1st Team / All NBA 3rd Team
2010/11 Rajon Rondo - 9.9 - All Defensive 1st Team
2003/04 Peja Stojakovic - 17.1 fga - All NBA 2nd Team
2016/17 Pascal Siakam - 3.7 fga
1989/90 Gerald Henderson 1.9

LeBron will be running point depending on matchups, he’ll have elite defense at the forward spots with Green/Wallace and Richmond was an underrated defensive player himself, he wasn’t named “Rock” for nothing, as not many guys could back him down.
I’ve got one of the greatest catch and shoot players ever in Peja who with LeBron is lethal, Richmond is another high volume elite 3 point shooter and Draymond in the chosen year was a great outside shooter.

C: Wes Unseld / Tyson Chandler
Pf: Dennis Rodman / Toni Kukoc
Sf: Kevin Durant / Toni Kukoc
Sg: Ray Allen / Steve Smith
Pg: Kyle Lowry / Steve Smith

Kevin Durant 2017 16.5
Ray Allen 2001 16
Kyle Lowry 2018 12.1
Dennis Rodman 1992 7.7
Wes Unseld 1978 6.1
Tyson Chandler 2011 5.5
Steve Smith 2000 11
Toni Kukoc 1996 9.7

tfga: 84.6

I tried to draft guys that work really well of the ball. Ray Allen, Durant, Lowry, Steve and Toni Kukoc spread the floor with their elite threepoint shot, Dennis Rodman is the greatest rebounder of alltime and fights and hustles in the paint so you must keep someone on him at alltimes, Wes Unseld and Tyson Chandler are also great rebonders but they are also great screeners that will free up my guys.

In short I might have the best shooting team in this tournament ( even this version of Rodman was shooting 30% from three ), good passing all around, probably the best rebounding team, everyone plays really well without the ball, the only guy that might go iso( hero ) mode is Durant and the defense is good with DPOY quality guys in Rodman, Tyson Chandler, Wes Unseld and the rest is great at defense outsite of Ray Allen and maybe Steve smith

Maurice Cheeks 11.1fga (1985-86): 15.4pts(53.7FG% 59.7TS%, 84.2FT%), 2.9reb, 9.2ast[5th], 2.5stl[4th], 0.3blk, 17.9PER, 10.6WS(3.4DWS), .155WS/48, Allnba Defensive 1st team, Allstar

Andrew Bogut 4fga (2015-16): 5.4pts(62.7FG%[2nd], 62.3TS%), 7reb, 2.3ast, 0.5stl, 1.6blk, 15.9PER, 5.4WS(2.9DWS), .180WS/48, 20.7mins

Kenny Smith 5fga (1996-97): 6.3pts(42.3FG%, 1.2 3P, 43.7FG3%[4th], 58TS%, 86.7FT%), 2.4ast, 0.4stl, 15.9mins

Cheeks(38mins)/KSmith(10mins)
Klay(38mins)/KSmith(5mins)/JJones(5mins)
Prince(33mins)/JJones(15mins)
KG(38mins)/Prince(5mins)/Bogut(5mins)
Parish(38mins)/Bogut(10mins)


My team is balanced and on both ends. 4 of my starters are allstars. Cheeks is arguably the best two way PG of the 1980s and is a great playmaker to feed Parish and KG on the inside and midrange and Klay and Prince on the outside and cutting to the basket. This is peak Parish who is arguably the third best Center of the early to mid 1980s behind Kareem and Moses, yet more efficient. Both Parish and Garnett are great shooters to 18ft at least, preventing opposition bigs from playing off them. Klay is arguably the best catch and shoot player ever and has great screen setters and passes to get him the ball in the right spots. Kenny Smith and James Jones are great outside shooters as well and Bogut is a great passer and screen setter, so the fit of all players is great. Defense is absolutely elite. KG is among the best defenders ever, Parish and Bogut are among the best defensive bigs in their eras so the lane is airtight. Prince hounded Kobe in the 2004 finals into an awful series and he was better this chosen season. Prince and Klay have length for their position and play bigger defensively, able to guard taller players.

Think my team has everything covered well, will suffocate other teams defensively and has underrated scorers who were key to their team's success.

Team Concept:

I built this team around high ball IQ players who have a great work ethic and are all unselfish players who will do whatever it takes to win as a team than individual players. 

Offensively, I have the best back-court in this game with my 1-2 punch Curry/Wade whom should lead my team offensively. I have arguably the best playmaking in the game as well with excellent passers from top to bottom from Curry to Iguodala to Gasol. Gasol will play the Draymond Green type of role for Curry with his ability to set screens and pick/pop or pick and roll which should be deadly. This was actually Gasol's peak season where he developed a great arsenal with his 3 point shooting nearly 40 percent. This will lead opponents big to leave the rim area  to cover Gasol and that will lead for Wade and Iggy slash to the rim with no protection inside which they do best. Grant provides great mid-range game. Elie provides offensive burst off the bench with double digit scoring with 42% shooting from the 3 point line. PJ Brown provides nearly double digit scoring as well.

Defensively, all my players are pretty good to excellent defenders with none I would say is a liability. Iguodala will cove elite wings. Grant, Gasol, and PJ Brown are formidable trio defensively against any bigs. Wade is one of the greatest shot blocking guards ever. Vaughn provides some solid defense off the bench. It will tough to score on this team.

Overall, I believe my team has no glaring weakness I see. I have a great 1-2 punch in superstars in Curry/Wade. I have great defense from Iggy and my bigs. I have some great bench pieces in Elie and PJ Brown who were actually starters in the season chosen. This is going to be a tough team to beat.
