    If we're talking about best players that played for Les:

    C - Olajuwon
    PF - Barkley
    SF - McGrady
    SG - Harden
    PG - Francis

    I'd say the team above would not be very cohesive. I think you replace Francis with Lowry or Kenny Smith or Dragic, you'd be a much much better team.

    If we're talking about best players that were under contract for Les:

    C - Olajuwon
    PF - Barkley
    SF - McGrady
    SG - Harden
    PG - Paul

    Acquired during his tenure:

    C - Yao
    PF - Barkley
    SF - McGrady
    SG - Harden
    PG - Paul

    Regardless, he had some nice players and won two championships. Not too bad.

    This is the best contract we got under the Les Era
    We didn't even pay him his entire salary

    Again... are you saying Drayton shouldn't get credit for hanging onto Bags and Biggio?

    Let's not switch sports.

    I give no credit to Les when it was under the prior regime that the championship team (first one) was built.

    Dream was drafted in 84, how the hell is the owner in 1993 getting credit for him?

    This is probably how the indians felt when chris columbus said he discovered this land

    The new owner will definitely get to say he employed Harden and Chris Paul. Yes.
