* NEW * 2019 Annual JazzFanz All-Time NBA Draft

Hakeem should have great shooters all around him. Instead he has a bunch of ball dominant guys in Giannis, Pistol, Vince and to a lesser extent Lillard. Don’t love it. Great teams have guys who fit roles perfectly. I don’t see that here at all.

That's a fair point. He lacks shooters so much that it's too vivid to pass. 2 spot feels a little bit awkward in this roster. If I were him, I'd definitely deal Artest, Pistol or Marion to some shooting talent.

The whole lineup just feels sort of awkward together. Pistol and Giannis are both so unique (unorthodox?) and honestly, who’s deferring for team ball here? Pistol? Lol. Hakeem? Shouldn’t have to. Giannis? No freakin way. Lillard? I can’t see it. Vince? Ditto. I don’t see anyone who’s great without the ball in their hands really and would be selfless for the betterment of the team.

Hmmmm no shooting. Interesting take.

Pistol, Lillard, and Petrovic are some of the best shooters to play the game. Carter had a few really good shooting years as well. Everything else are valid points though.

Very solid. Not sure how solid really though.

Irving is very talented with the ball in his hands. But he is not the type of player to fill in for Magic. But other than Legend, no other player is known for usage rates, so it might work somehow.

Drazen Okay but doesn’t blend well with the rest of the roster’s player type. Lillard has Curry-like highlights but is inconsistent. Carter is of course a good shooter but not the type that would fill your shooting needs in an all time draft. Pistol is extremely talented, but again, he will not give you the spacing you need. He will not be able to run with your squad. He will dish amazing passes though.
 
My guys are just going to take turns dominating one on one. No one is stopping the dream’s ability to travel in the post and not get called for it along with the elite footwork, Giannis Antetokounmpo is a freak of nature. Not even Gobert could stop him even sagging into the paint. Don’t get me started on the Pistol. He’s every thing the Jimmer wishes he was. He’s such a good shooter you have to play him tight. The problem with that is he’s so elite with the ball, they say the ball is just an extension of his hands and feet, no one, not even kawhi Leonard is staying in front of him, and Lillard will just drop 35 ft step back threes, just ask Paul George.
