We might need Don Nelson to coach this team and play run and gun.
John Drew
Could really score the rock, and really enjoyed snorting cocaine. He played backup minutes for Utah (averaged about 25 mpg over 3 seasons) but scored about 19 ppg with 4.5 rpg. If you look at his Per 36 minutes, he averaged around 27 ppg with 7 rpg. Last season was cut short due to his career ending drug addiction.
Damn, I just looked up stories about him, sad stuff.

Bobby Hansen...I want defensive minded guys. He fits the bill.
Bring on the 80's NBA. Please bring on the 80's NBA.

That guy looks like a defensive ace if I have ever seen one.

I select..
Ben Poquette
Truthfully I knew very little about him before this. But looking at his stats I his like high shooting percentages he shot 51-52% from field and 78-80% from foul line in 2 of his 3 seasons. Also could block some shots. His time with the jazz was easily the best part of his career.

His afro does add style to your team.

Cool, I have one of those courts he invented in my backyard .. for under-privileged people.

With the 8th pick in the 1980's Utah Jazz Round, vslice02 selects: Dell Curry
The best shooter in his family, Curry was traded by the Jazz following his rookie season, but averaged a respectable 9ppg in his first 3 seasons from 1986-89. Like Korver, he's pretty much a 1-dimensional 3pt shooter, but at this point you're pretty much scraping the bottom of the barrel.

With the first pick in the 1980's NBA Round, vslice02 selects: Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
>insert Spike Lee's annual shocked draft-night expression<
This is probably a pick that will eliminate me from contention, but wtf I'm passing on Bird&Magic because I'm of the belief that (unless you're the '92 Dream Team competing against Angola) a team has to have an alpha-dog. IMO adding Bird/Magic would create a "whose team is it in crunchtime?" quandry, so I chose Kareem because IMO the sky-hook is the greatest shot in basketball and he's a franchise center who can win championships as the #1 or #2 guy. He dominated the 1980 playoffs averaging 32&12 w/4 blocks and 26-10-3 with 3 blocks on 57% shooting in 80-81 still serving as the Lakers' #1-option. Once the Lakers became Magic's team, he still averaged 22-8-3 with 2 blocks while shooting 58% as the #2 option.
PG Deron Williams
SG Michael Jordan
SF Paul Pierce

C Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
And "you're welcome" to whoever's picking 3rd in this round

That would be me. But I wanted Moses Malone. Now I have to take Bird or Magic. Damn you.

Since he already has Nash and could use a stud 3, Prodigy's going with Bird which means I'm getting Magic. At least this is what I suspect. **** me.
