NBA Era Single Season Draft.

[Jay]

Again, doesn't need the ball but is an ultimate defender and can hit the shots.

Pierce is actually a fairly high usage player, and didn't really care about D until KG came along...

[Andrew3747]

His highest is 32% when he was the only star, and when he was the 2nd best, he was high/mid/low 20's. He is cleary not even close to being the best player on my roster, so his USG will be prob 3rd highest with 15-20%. Also, you of all people should know that PP can defend, and defend well. He is a role player.

[Jay]

We drafting a bench?

[Andrew3747]

Up to you guys.

[RiOtChEsS]

id rather not, will just muddy the waters.. how is it being judged?

[RiOtChEsS]

i dont think the high/low usage thing is relevant in this type of draft, otherwise we could basically only pick 3 stars and Bruce Bowen and Ben Wallace to round out sides, they were high usage bcos they didnt have the talent around them that they do in this "hypothetical season", well except for Kobe, he still gonna jack it up 30 times :P

[Andrew3747]

Can do a sort by PER/WS sort of thing, but that obv doesn't count for certain aspects of the game.

[Master Q]

Who's pick?

[RiOtChEsS]

Andrew went last, so Chumps :-\

[North Melbournes Finest]

with Payton Hakeem and Russell my defence is stacked. Need some scoring to go with Durrant and this combo would just be scary.

George Gervin 79/80 5.2 RPG 2.6 APG and 33.1 PPG on 52.8%

just an amazing scorer, who not only puts up massive points but does it very effeciently. Paired up with Durrant both guys shooting above 50% and 32+ points will make it hard to work out where the attack is coming from.

That's a very well thought out and even spread team.

Moses Malone 81-82

31ppg, 15 rpg, 27 PER

Again chose the best available center that was there, not as good as passing as the rest of my players but that's ok when you already have 4 elite facilitators for their positions. Could score with the best of them and with Tim Duncan next to him I think they're a great pairing.

PG - John Stockton
SG - Jerry West
SF - Larry Bird
PF - Tim Duncan
C  - Moses Malone

Love this team. Its solid defensively and offensively.
Only criticism is that I personally would have chosen The Admiral David Robinson.
Easily one of the best centres to play the game. Amazing athlete with a complete set of tools offensively and defensively.

PG: Oscar Robertson
SG: Ray Allen
SF: Scottie Pippen
PF: Charles Barkley
C: Kareem Abdul Jabbar

This pick gives me great floor spacing and Ray doesn't need the ball in his hands to be a threat so he won't take away from my elite scoring trio in Kareem, Chuck and Oscar.

Another solid team. Better offensively than defensively.  But not by much. Love the Big O and Pippen picks. 2 guys who usually get looked over.

C: Patrick Ewing, 89-90, 28.6 PPG @55%, 10.9 RPG, 2.2 APG, 1.0 SPG, 4.0 BPG, PER: 25.8
PF: Kevin Garnett, 03-04, 24.2 PPG, @50%, 13.9 RPG, 5.0 APG, 1.5 SPG, 2.2 BPG PER: 29.4 MVP
SF:Tracy McGrady, 02-03, 32.1 PPG @45%, 6.5 RPG, 5.5 APG, 1.7 SPG, 0.8 BPG, 173 triples @38% PER: 30.3
SG: Vince Carter, 00-01, 27.6 PPG, @46%, 5.5 RPG, 3.9 APG, 1.5 SPG, 1.1 BPG, 162 triples @40% PER: 25.0
PG: LeBron James, 12-13, 26.8 PPG @56%, 8.0 RPG, 7.3 APG, 1.7 SPG, 0.9 BPG 103 triples @40% PER: 31.6 MVP/FMVP

Nice.

I would have chosen the Admiral had he been available to choose when I was drafting.

pmsl Barkley should have his own reality show ;D Kerr,Miller and Smith had the best teams imo

will do a team write up once the draft is completed

[Master Q]

McHale's team was actually pretty good  :P
