a bunch of interesting picks though, while I was sleeping. I guessed don was taking Hayes, since he posted the big E picture early in the thread. Ralph Sampson + Nique is an interesting combination. Curious where fallen will go from there, big or small. Reggie + Yao is fun too, it reminds me of Pacers' Reggie + Rik Smits, but not as good!
My thinking is that both will be deadly on offense. Inside, mid-range, and long-range are all options... plus, having a center who can hit his FT's is a big plus. On defense, Yao's size alone will change plenty of shots. Speaking of FT's, that leg kick by Reggie will earn lots of and-1's.

I still don't know why kevC went with Sabonis with the 2nd pick. I know he was good (despite coming to the NBA at an old age), but why so soon?
Paul Pierce and Ray Allen were my best case scenario picks. 2008 Celtics. Ewing would've replaced KG. Different players, but KG's personality, presence if you know what I mean. But LCAhmed had to mess it up for me. I know who I'm voting against!
