    The player photos / prices are no longer showing up for me…

    let me guess

    1. Dame -$5
    2. Roy -$5
    4. Oden -$1
    3. Carmelo $1
    4. Buck -$3
    Assuming we get these players at their career peak? I’ll take this lineup

    Yeah, I think if it's peak Melo that we'd all have him in our lineup for $1.

    No, but you can have Outlaw for free for reasons.

    So you get a 65 year old Sabonis or at his peak? Must apply across the board, no?

    Sure, and Porter, Wes or others could do that too with Sheed.

    Hell Porter usually took the big shot, not Clyde.

    I guess I don't think either of those guys are as good as Chauncey or Rip.

    Porter, maybe. Definitely not Wes.

    I'm pretty sure due to the way they are priced that they are at the peak they reached while on our team... not in their career otherwise Melo is $5 for sure, Sabonis (given what he was in Europe) would be $5 but they are not priced that way. So it's fair to deduce that it's the best these guys were/are while in a Trail Blazers uniform.

    Strange that ET didn't make it on the list. I'd spend $2 on him.

    That team is still missing the same thing that the 1999-2000 team is missing.

    There is nobody on the team that will take over. There's no Dame. There's no Roy. There's no Drexler.

    True but if it is just for one game for all the marbles then I am taking him for free.

    When you have Pip, Dre, Sheed, Sabas & Bonz.....thats good enough. Dre & Bonzi make a very sound back court. Sheed and Pip, those guys are true champions and yes could take over a game. Sabas would make all those guys better and keep us from iso ball.
