    Thanks. Right now there's still a lot of players left that would make a great bench

    Awesome defense with Payton, Mullin, Duncan, Robinson. Payton can lock down the opposing team's best guard and is a capable ball-handler and scorer when needed. Reggie and Mullin bringin the terror from downtown, especially when you see the opposing defense having to concentrate on Duncan&Robinson in the post. Post these two guys up and you can play great in/out with Reggie and Mullin at the 3pt line. Obviously rebounding, blocking ain't a problem and all these guys are athletic and have good ball-iq.

    Now let's see how your bench adds to the mix.

    Mullin would've completed your dream team, indeed. Nice pick by fade.

    Nash sets up the other guys and his issues on defense are no problem looking at your other guys. Capable to knock down the 3s when Kareem and KG post up. Nash and KG runnin pick&roll would be something to watch, similar to the Nash/Amare combo but better. Dumars another great shooter plus good defender. Obviously your big duo has no problems controlling the boards and swatting shots or creating their own offense. Baylor one of the underrated guys here to complete the unit with his incredible scoring and rebounding, also decent playmaking.

    Made for transition with guys like Frazier, Dr. J, Pierce, Hayes, Wilt. All guys above average at rebounding for their position, you would control the boards. Everyone able to create his own shot and Frazier being able to slow it down and run p&r with Hayes, setting up Pierce for 3s or passing it to Kareem in the post. 1-5 good playmakers and you're above average on steals/playing the passing lanes for break opportunities, which these guys convert in a dangerous percentage.

    Majority here(talking about the guys asking for input) drafted well-thought starting units with no glaring weakness, it will come down to drafting a bench that works well and gives you additional options or strategies.

    Drafting Dolph Schayes will be the key.
