    I'm sure Lebron going off today won't help me :(

    Remember 13 in 35 guys ;)

    Lebron and Olajuwon.

    I'll take Jamers here. I know I didn't pick him in the first round. And the reason was very simple. He was going up against Boston's best frontcourt of all time. Boston's chemistry was amazing there. But here, if Lebron will go ahead and score the ball and let Rondo facilitate, this team is great. Rondo throwing it to Lebron and Hakeem is sick. Unseld kinda gets in the way. He's another center, not a PF. And I hate it when you guys think you just pile up beef in the middle and win games that way. The one thing you should have done better Jamers, is separate your bigs. Hakeem, Walton, and Unseld are all centers. You don't have a true PF. You'd be better off to move James to the 4 and have Cooper play the 3 for spacing and racing.

    Yes. Everyone is healthy and on their prime

    @Jopat - Thanks but unseld can play PF very well, so is Olajuwon so i think I have flexibility there

    Down 1-0. C'mon tmac. This is the second round now! You have already broken the curse.

    EDIT: jopat didn't pick jamers and he ended up winning. Now he did pick jamers. Maybe there is a pattern

    6'7 PF / C - According to Wikipedia :grin:

    It doesn't matter anyway, all he need to do is rebound and defend, that's all i need from him

    True dat. There's only so many rebounds to be had. And whatever boards Unseld got, he's probably stealing them from one of his fellow bigs. The last thing you need is rebounds when you got Olajuwon, James, and Bill Walton. What you need is a guy spread the floor by shooting from distance and is long and can bother Dirk. You would be better off with Sam Perkins instead of Wes Unseld playing next to Hakeem.

    Tmac was a good defender in his prime. Reggie, yeah but gervin would score just as much on him. Deke would give hakeem a good challenge, though dream would win the matchup

    Olajuwon can shoot it mid-range, so i will have Unseld getting the offensive boards there, he can slowdown Nowitzki in the paint as well, my help defense is awesome
