Yes, class of 81 has more scorers, but if you try to play the likes of Tom Chambers, Mark Aquirre, Orlando Woolridge, Jay Vincent, and Kelly Tripuka together you have a disaster (Nance is the exception). None of those players play defense, create for others, or are particularly good at anything other than scoring. You end up with a selfish bunch of isolation players . . . not helped by the fact that your PG (who is a better PG than Lucas but who has a big ego and needs to be the man on his team) is ALSO a primary scorer, as is your SG . . . the only one who isn't is either Buck Williams or Larry Nance . . . I don't care how many scorers you have, you only get so many shots and with weak defense, below average passing, and average rebounding . . . you aren't going to get all the shots that all your one on one players need. So, quit saying you are going to win because you have scorers because there is more than enough scoring on both sides and tell me whether you can win the battle defensively, on the boards, in team player, anywhere OTHER than scoring (and other than that you don't think John Lucas can play PG which is a legitimate argument, albeit one I don't agree with).
