    How many balls do you plan to use? Because if the answer is one, AI and Kobe are going to kill each other trying to get it.

    That's a good point. I guess I didn't really think about that. But overall, if you look at the offense and defense the team is solid

    I would have gone with Hayes if he was there instead of Rodman. But thinking about it now, Rodman fits a lot better because I don't need the scoring at that position.

    Give me Rodman any day. Hayes was a selfish player who was about "Big E" first and the team second.

    Hayes was a better player if the rest of your team isn't HOFers and superstars, but Rodman is the perfect fit for a team like that.

    I did think Carter in his best year was a flat out superstar, but Pierce is someone that I thought would get along better with different voters.

    so long as your winning, otherwise he becomes "DENNIS RODMAN HUMAN DISTRACTION AND ATTENTION WHORE".

    yeah Big E was selfish, but he did figure it out and win a title. Also with Magic leading the team via his natural charisma and enthusiasim, I think he'd fit in.

    don't discredit Magic's ability to get everyone on the same page and be about winning.

    yeah, yeah you're buliding your team for votes as much as talent... no one before 1990.. seen it done before, connect with the voters too young to know or remember previous era's :NOTMARIS:

    Magic would have the same effect on Rodman, right?

    Rodman can rebound with anyone, but what he gives you in this draft is a 100% sure fire lockdown defender who is going to be necessary when the other team has the kinds of scorers these teams do.

    Rodman is definitely more proven as a role player on a winning team than Hayes. Hayes was no role player. Rodman was maybe the best of all time.

    although dated Mikan is one of the greatest big men of all time. Charles will snatch rebounds against anyone.....although he'll suffer defensively. Kidd and Pistol Pete will be a backcourt of flashiness................

    Nash is a great pickup...........he can't play a lick of defense, but he does everything else extremely well......................who will be running alongside Nash???

    I don't need the biggest ballhog in the history of the game. :/

    And defensively he is out of his league here, at least Vince can give me something.

    I thought it was all about FG% Denny?

    The defense doesn't even matter with Nash, he was definitely my next pick.

    Vince's defense isn't enough to place him over A.I. A.I. can score, create, and shows up in the big games.........he's slowed down as of late, because of age. A.I. is tough as nails also...........

    AI's offense is vastly overrated, he takes a lot of shots... He's going to average a lot of points.

    He is way too overzealous, what he's had is a more consistent career of taking an exorbitant amount of jumpers.
