    Nice call on Zach Randolph. I overlooked him. I'd probably go with Roy first and then Randolph.

    Getting the ball to Zach for a midrange shot isn't that hard, and he's such a deadly shooter from there. And he'll take that shot without any conscience at all. Plus, even if he misses there's a decent chance he can tip in a rebound, so you get around a 45% shot, plus maybe a 15% chance he tips in an offensive board. And if he misses but draws a foul, he's a good free throw shooter.

    It's always tough to run a play for a big on a final play, since there's often not enough time to react to doubleteams. But Zach isn't a bad choice.

    Of course, there are any number of ex-Blazers I prefer in general. But for this circumstance...

    Porter is a close second, though.

    Greg Anthony was money in the 4th quarter as well, I can't remember if he ever hit any game winners though.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I interpreted it the same way Masbee did.

    Roy, Drexler, Pippen

    In that order.
