I would like to read filo.kid's strategy for his starting 5, for it's a very interesting line-up: you have a jack-of-all-trades in Clyde, the designated shooter in Reggie, the facilitator (and offensive threat) in Bird and a strong frontcourt in KG and Shaq. I think this could work: Clyde moves the ball up, gets it to Bird, and he and Shaq would provide a magnificent tandem...
I also like how filo managed to get some defensive-stoppers in his second unit, as the likes of Deke and Worm, who will cover 3-to-5.

Like i said, i would like to reak filo.kid's strategy, but his sqaud seems a little more "complete" than kflo's...
well, i know you're not the biggest jordan fan, you're a magic/bird nutrider , and you still harbor resentment over me beating you in our one-on-one all-time draft battle, but certainly you're aware that oscar completely subverted his game and willfully deferred to big lew when it was in his team's best interest.

fact is, oscar/jordan is a devastating backcourt duo, insanely physical, deadly midrange games and matchup nightmares who knew how to play the game. oscar easily becoming jordan's pippen (not trying to disrespect oscar here), albeit a much better one offensively at that.
