Alex English and George Gervin on the same team. Man, this a lot of firepower.

How many balls does that team play with?

Alex English and George Gervin on the same team. Man, this a lot of firepower.

And not enough balls to go around to. One of them will definitely have a scoring setback if they are on the same team.

[Roy H.]

Tiny Archibald is awesome value in the second round.  30 ppg + 11 assists + nearly 50% FG%.

He's one of the guys who thought could score as well as Gervin, but was more multi-dimensional.

[Moranis]

I am willing to move out of the second round entirely in the right trade.  If anyone wants my pick offer me up something via P.M..  Thanks.

I think they will be fine together. A third high usage scorer could be hard to fit in there though. Depends on the guy but some of them would be problematic. That could maybe lead to some issues.

Some nice complementary scorers in the 14-18ppg variety who do most of their work in non-scoring areas like defending, rebounding and passing and I think they could have a nicely balanced team built around A.English + G.Gervin.

Interesting base for a run and gun team.

And the reality is, all of these teams will have that sort of a problem i.e. multiple 25+ scorers on the same team.

Am I up?

So you want those unselfish stars more then anything.

I will select Robert Parish

Yes and no.  I think there are plenty of 25+ ppg guys who shared the ball.  A team with Magic or Bird plus another volume scorer isn't going to have the same issue as two guys who were little more than scoring machines.

I agree with Who's point, though.  It's probably possible to build a well-rounded team even with two one-dimensional scorers.  The rest of the team needs to supply the defense, rebounding, ball-movement, etc., though. 

From my perspective, putting five great scorers together doesn't automatically win the "best offensive team" award.

[nickagneta]

Gonna reserve judgment on the Gervin-English pairing until I see who else fills out that team. They will need a defensive oriented pass first guard and a solid big man defensive anchor who can rebound. Get them that and that's a really solid foundation with two of the best scorers around.

[Moranis]

I will select Robert Parish

The Chief.  Solid pick there.
