Those two are pretty bad (for this league), but Natt played almost exclusively PF. He's a big too.

Horry is great if you draft a combo sg/sf and 2 real back up bigs.

Horry has 66.6 career win shares and 43.1 career defensive win shares and he had a career WP 48 of 0.124 before the 07-08 season. Hardly an awful basketball player.

I don't hate the pick as much as Mben does, but this is probably the worst argument that's been made in defense of a pick in the entire draft.

Horry is good defensively and can shoot the 3.

Definitely better players available at the 4/5, but he could be drafted. In his prime he was very good. Not just a marginal player who could hit 3s. He played 30 min+ a game in differerent seasons and 20+ in a couple...not great but not bad stats considering those.

I've admitted the Kerr pick was horrible, but at least he has a single skillset that he is basically the GOAT at. Horry is a ****ty bball player that got a good rep by being the biggest lucksack in the history of all pro sports. Just saying.

I know longevity doesn't mean anything in our league, but you're doing something right if you stick around for 16 years on quality organizations.

It's not a great pick or anything, but he gives me defense and some three-point shooting. Not much more I need at this point.

Joakim Noah- A crafty big that will rebound and play great defense for us.


Jamario Moon- Wasn't he the league leader in APM? And if he wasn't he's a good low USG guy that can come off the bench for us.


Sorry pictures aren't working for me right now.

BWAHAH MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON

Embarrassing. When those stat donkeys created APM they should have said "oh, Jamario Moon somehow landed in the top ten...let's start this again from scratch".

Plenty of Moon pictures at failblog.org

Would your 11th and 12th man ever play? Would your 10th even?

I think there should be a 15 man draft where we combine players. Draft Rondo and Kerr and merge them into a sweet shooting Rondo.

I'm really glad I checked this, because I'm going to bed. I knew who I wanted to round out my team since the draft began:
-He was a Celtic
-He's white
-He's European
-This sort of draft favors him, since he was always banged up and not at full strength
-He can play spot minutes at the 4 or 5, so he's my 4th big

DINO RADJA!

I'm taking him his rookie year, when he was 26 and just starting his peak. It was his healthiest year, so unsurprisingly he posted a 18.2 PER, 110 ORtg, 107 DRtg. He's a very low turnover big who actually draws a fair amount of fouls relative to his usage. Truth is he probably wont get any PT, but hey, he's a good cheerleader.



My full team:

Starters
PG - Rajon Rondo
SG - Michael Redd
SF - Andrei Kirilenko
PF - Rasheed Wallace
C - Arvydas Sabonis

2nd Unit
PG - Sleepy Floyd
SG - Aaron McKie
SF - Rodney Rogers
PF - Dino Radja
C - Bill Walton

I can trot out an all-Celtics lineup of Rondo, Rogers, Rasheed, Radja, and Walton (4 Rs for the W!).

Anyway, I love my team, I think it's awesome. Peace.

Team DoB needs a wing to finish out the squad. We select Craig Ehlo, SG/SF from 1989-1990. While most only remember Ehlo for being scored over by Mr. Jordan, Ehlo was a good player in his own right. He can shoot well, and spaces the floor nicely with his range from beyond the arc.

Team DoB
Jason Kidd - PG
Dan Majerle - SG
Dominique Wilkins - SF
Tom Gugliotta - PF
Ralph Sampson - C

Scott Skiles - PG
Michael Finley - SG/SF
Craig Ehlo - SG/SF
Kevin Willis - PF/C
Rick Mahorn - PF/C
