So I have never had the luxury of this many FGA on my bench before.

I can even splurge on an expensive season of Pierce, but I honestly dont think he is a better player in 2006/07 than in 2007/08 for the increased 4.5fga.

Sure he scored 25ppg instead of 20ppg, but his advanced stats were worse...


SO that means I have almost 8fga to use on a bench Center to play behind Wilt. lol.

I think he'd get more burn if he played enough games in that one Chicago season.

I'm not wild about the Pelican year you refer to.


I only use the Bulls version. Every time I see his 2022 numbers I cry because he played 35 games, so that year is ineligible. :banghead:

The Bulls version is the one with 35 games. It's his Pels seasons that are eligible. Or am I misunderstanding you?

I thought he played 2 seasons for the Bulls. For some reason, I thought he played 2021 for the Bulls.

Jesus, that means he's only played 35 games for the Bulls. That contract has been a disaster.

If I were you, I'd use Sheed at backup C and spend the spare FGA on a (s)wing. I mean, backup C would be playing limited minutes, whereas backup (s)wing can have a more prominent role.

Honestly, that was were I was leaning towards going,

I have a great backup in Odom who can easily give me 22 mins at PF allowing for Sheed to be my Backup Center for 8 mins behind Wilt.

I really wanted Horry as a backup because of his shooting but young Mchale is a helluva consolation prize. Plus, I couldn't let him fall anymore.

Was trying to fit McHale in as a sixth man but I needed someone who could also absorb some SF minutes.

Same. He didn’t fit with my team or rotation.

Plus there was another Hall of Famer (Worthy) who did.

I think I built a pretty good team, I dont regret any picks at this point in time...so see how much different my thoughts on team construction and player value is than the voters. lol.


If nothing else I will not have my bench weakness used against me,. lol.

Seems that way.

He drops out late in these sometimes.
