All Time NBA Draft

[PHX]

I'm taking my pick tomorrow morning if Messy doesn't take his today or has the time to tell us for a third time he doesn't have the time to take his pick.

 

[Messenger]

My pick is James Worthy. Another player that works both ends and can play a transition game.

PS: Sorry Ive taken this long......

 

[PHX]

Willis Reed

Maybe not a typical "sixth man" but this guy will be killer off my bench and keep up the defence when my front court are resting to huge effect.



The Untouchables

C - Kareem Abdul Jabbar
PF - Kevin Garnett
SF - Julius "Dr J" Erving
SG - Dwayne Wade
PG - Chris Paul

6th man: Willis Reed

 

[JP Sauce]

Solid pick.

Back when I made my last pick (feels like a month ago now) I strongly considered Reed.

 

[jod23]

PN, you're up.

 

[peternorth]

UKUs ask for additional time

* kevin sheehan whispers in mic - UKU has asked for a bit more time to make their selection. perhaps the selections of michael jordan and kareem have thrown them off track. simon dwight is still on the board is could be worth a gamble *

 

[peternorth]

its been a hard day for me personally. many events and thoughts have crossed my mind.

im going against my M.O and moto (good, solid citizens) and pick arguably the biggest douchebag in the history of the A:

lots of stats including missing practice and shooting a lot.

many will raise eyebrows at this pic given the strong, moral and respectable players i have assembled in this Avengers type team. But I also needed some more flair (to go with Magic), quickness, on ball D (kinda) and a lion heart to lead the second unit.

despite being a moron, AI has ability and an urge to score at will. I am confident being under Magics tute AI will learn to distribute the rock whilst offering another slashing scoring option behind Drex.

Read that and though you were drafting Kermit Washington

lots of stats including missing practice and shooting a lot.

Will you be introducing a mandated dress code?

 

[jod23]

I was sure you would **** me over PN. But you didnt take my guy which is freaking awesome.

 

[jod23]

I cant believe this bloke has fallen into my lap. Just cannot believe

Ok with the 48th pick of the ALL TIME DRAFT the Jodzilla Thrillers select....

13x All Star
10x All NBA First Team
2x NBA All Star MVP
NCAA Champion
8x League leader in Assists per game
1x Regular season MVP (one of only 4 PG's in history to win the award)
6x NBA Champion
Career averages of 18.4ppg, 5.2rpg and 7.5apg.

Mr.Basketball
Houdini of the Hardwood
Cooz

Bob Cousy

How this bloke slipped as far as he did is ******ed. Stockton and Cousy rotating the PG position? Cousy at 48 in the draft, I took Stockton real early but I dont even know who i start??

 

[PP34]

I didn't take Cousy because it was well documented that he could only use his right hand and he wasn't exactly what you would call skilled with his dribbling. He was a great passer but he wouldn't have succeeded in any other era.

 

[jod23]

Nobody playing back then would succeed in todays game. It's completely evolved. But you have to judge them on their time. If he could only use his right hand and his dribbling was shit, it's amazing he won 6 titles and an MVP.

You crazy to talk shit about the Cooz. ESPN ranked him the 5th greatest PG of all time.

 

[raffrox]

I didn't take Cousy because it was well documented that he could only use his right hand and he wasn't exactly what you would call skilled with his dribbling. He was a great passer but he wouldn't have succeeded in any other era.

37% career field goal percentage (never shot over 40% for a season) as well.

Given that, I would have taken him with my next pick.

 

[jod23]

He was a winner. Made the Celtics tick. Won 6 titles. He was a winner. I was shocked he wasnt taken earlier when other PG's like Payton, Nash, Kidd and other players like Reggie Miller, Earl Monroe etc were taken...

The guy's a flat out all time great. But I wont argue it, im just happy he fell into my lap

 

[jod23]

My second pick is hard...

 

[PP34]

Nash and Kidd over him is debatable. I do see what you're saying and he is a great but only in his time. I'm not shit talking him because he was a great passer but Nash and Kidd can do more.

 

[peternorth]

interesting. what was his PER?

foxsports had him at 6.

 

[peternorth]

My second pick is hard...

clocks ticking

 

[jod23]

ESPN had him behind only Magic, Oscar, Isiah and Stockton.

 

[Chadwiko]

espn had him behind only magic, oscar, isiah and stockton.

Where's Rondo on that list?!

Standard celtics rage rant! Rabble rabble rabble

*Edit : BigFooty automatically editted my ALL CAPS RANT to remove the all-caps-yness of it. Disapprove

 

[jod23]

Continuing my theme of defence, with the 49th pick in the All Time Draft, the Jodzilla Thrillers select...

Alonzo Mourning

Zo before the health issues had career averages of 20.3ppg, 9.8rpg and 3.0bpg.

NBA Champion
7x All Star
All NBA First Team in 99.
2x Defensive Player of the Year.
2x All Defensive First Team.
2x Leader in blocks per game.

Monster defender and a great warrior. Coming off the bench he keeps our defence at a high level, daring anyone to come to the ring. Can also most Howard to PF now and go with Dirk at SF to create a huge frontcourt.

Bring it.

Etc...
