I just would've tried to maybe do a 2 for 1 trade first, like Rodman + Dennis Johnson for Jason Kidd, or something. I don't know if it was available, just it's painful to drop Rodman.
Well, then Torque picks Jermaine O'Neal if no one minds. A very nice fit. Spoiler 1. oelman44 - Michael Jordan 2. Yung-T - Hakeem 3. Voice of Aus - Magic 4. thething - Kareem 5.

Teams that don't draft for 3-4 days should get chuck hayes. Whoever is lucky enough to go against them in the first round basically gets a bye.
So, Torque's lineup now g Steph Curry / Sam Cassell g Kobe Bryant f Scottie Pippen f Jermaine O'Neal c Alonzo Mourning Pretty nice. Good defense, good size, good spacing, lots of talent. Every single player in that starting 5 was an All Star starter at some point over the last 20 years. Goes to show the talent level. I guess that team is a bit on the selfish / ball stopping side. But no team is perfect.
Btw to be clear I wasn't hating on your pick of Schayes. I was just letting you know the ridicule I received for having him on my team that one draft. What makes it even worse is that Jamers actually drafted him in the 5th round in that draft and I got him in exchange for an 8th round pick. That's when I first learned about the wrath of Dolph.
I'll just go ahead and pick a David Thompson for Torque, I think he's the best wing available. If anyone wants to pick another backup for Torque, go ahead. g Steph Curry / Sam Cassell g Kobe Bryant / David Thompson f Scottie Pippen f Jermaine O'Neal c Alonzo Mourning
