I love Wilt man don't get me wrong. But your entire plan is pretty much based on him and it shows that overall my guys are doing pretty great. And I understand completely. There is no other solution for your team to expect Wilt to dominate enough to cover all other spots.

Out of seven games, I would objectively say that my setup would win in 6 games.

My opinion though. Might be wrong. But I doubt it. -barkley.

Putting up numbers like 50/25 he's worth two dominant #1 option all time greats. Most dominant to ever play the game, and Stockton is the greatest playmaker to play the game at pg, could dominate the game without ever shooting the ball. Why wouldn't I center my team around a two man game which probably turns Stockton, Allen, Drazen, and Price into 45-50% 3pt shooters. My players fit like a glove while There'd be a bit of an internal struggle between AI and LBJ. There's no doubt AI takes away some of LBJ's effectiveness.

Wilt is the second best player of all-time in my opinion and has a decent argument to be #1. The season where he averaged 50 and 25 is incredible. Keeping in mind that he was double or triple teamed most of the game. He was hard fouled all game. If Wilt played in todays rules he would dominate. Most of the fouls on Wilt in that season would be flagrant fouls today. He only missed 8 minutes that entire season. He had no talent around him and still won a championship by himself. Wilt had good range shooting as well. People claim to have watched him hit tons of half court shots in a row during warmups. There is the clip of him hitting three point hook shot from the side like 5 times in a row. Oh and the defense of Wilt is like a stronger, more athletic, better hands Gobert. No points are getting scored in the paint with him. Then you add in Stockton who is the third best player in this matchup feeding him the ball in the right place and you have a great combo. The pick and roll with those two would be scary. I like the spacing added by the wings. I did think with Wilt falling to the second round you would put a little better team around him but this is the better team. Looking at the draft there was some really good players on the board to fill out an elite roster. I think both the Stockton pick and the Ray Allen picks were reaches. I think you had a good chance to put together the best team but didnt. But this is the better team in this matchup. I would also start Paul George over Petrovic. He was a great shooter but George is a better all around player and still a good shooter. George is a much better defender and would be much better matchup against Lebron. George played him pretty well in the playoffs before the injury. Petrovic never shot well in his limited playoff experience either. His best playoffs he shot .333 from 3. I think you would get more votes with George in the starting lineup.

I here what your saying, but I wanted to build a team that reflects me. I really wanted Ray, and felt I would miss him drafting with the last pick of the third round, and I salivated at putting Stockton with Wilt, and wanted PG to lead my bench as a 6th man.

To show how crazy skilled Wilt was he played for the Harlem globetrotters
 
Wilt is ridiculously underrated with Posters on jazzfanz. Last year I drafted him with the 10th pick.
