UPDATE: The Bulls (Jabroni) and Oaks (Bruindre) are up to pick.
The Oaks (Bruindre) have until 00:40 EST (00:40 PST) to make their pick before the Jazz (Sunsfan81) can cut in front of him.

Thanks for the kind words regarding Pierce guys. There was another guy (Sharpie knows who i'm talking about) with probably at least as good a statline when you concider efficiency on the board, but i liked Pierce because he actually is a decent defender and a better playmaker (which is also the reason i'd pick him before Dantley who was flat out a horrible defender and kind of a difficult offensive player to play with despite his SICK efficiency).

Yea Pierce has a great all around game, and I'd take him from 01-02, or 05-06. 05-06 his high volume, low shooting percentage problem wasn't as big a problem, and he got to the line a lot, but if you watched him in 01-02, he was very durable and had a great all around game.
Just one thing, Pippen and Pierce as your forwards? Considering how many big players there are since this is an all-time draft, you may get crushed in the post, you're lucky you have David Robinson.

Nah, he's running two teams. The one in his sig is Memphis, Pierce was drafted for NJ.

Buck was kind of an impulse grab. There were several players with very different strengths who were much higher on my draft board, and I kept trying to talk myself into taking one of them. But I've been watching a run on defensive studs, and Duncan, Payton and Buck give me a solid defensive trio to add other pieces to.
And having said that, any member of my team is up for trade proposals.

I think Pierce is overrated. I've always thought of him as a player who's not as good as his stats.

The thing is the draft is a 1 season draft.
I got Larry Johnson when he was a star.
