    Based on the last few season's, I would have taken Camby, but looking at careers on the whole, O'Neal's clearly a better pick. Based on their entire careers, I might even take Marbury over Mr. Glass.

    5) Jermaine O'Neal

    9. Marcus Camby

    He deserved to go 2nd but because of his injuries he "didnt live up to the hype"

    But the decision was between him and Peja...I decided a dominant force in the middle was more valuable than a 3-point specialist.

    I agree about Camby, if he wans't such an injury risk you could make an argument for top 3.


    10) Zydrunas Ilgauskas

    Tough choice over Peja but I like his game.

    Heh, I beat you to it!

    Shimmy Man will have to be # 12.

    That's time for one more Triple Whopper in the green room!

    Damn, I was busy comparing their careers, and yeah, they're both washed up now, but I thought Walker's years in Boston were more impressive than what Reef was able to do with the Grizz - very close call though, comes down to individual preference.

    Okay, so we've got -

    1) Kobe Bryant
    2) Steve Nash
    3) Allen Iverson
    4) Ray Allen
    5) Jermaine O'Neal
    6) Zydrunas Ilgauskus
    7) Stephon Marbury
    8) Ben Wallace
    9) Marcus Camby
    10) Peja Stojakovic
    11) Shareef Abdur-Rahim
    12) Antoine Walker

    13) Kerry Kittles
    14) Derek Fisher

    I'm not exactly Fisher's #1 fan, but he was the best of the few decent options left. It was either him, McInnis, Wright, or Harrington. I figured the role that Fisher played on the Laker title teams was worth giving him the nod for.
