PG: Tim Hardaway Sr.
SG: Joe Dumars
SF: Alex English
PF: Cliff Robinson
C: Moses Malone
My team's philosophy is gonna be a fast-paced, run and gun system that gives guys tons of great looks. We want to control the pace and keep the tempo at a breakneck speed
Moses is going to be the centerpiece of my team. In our system, we're gonna shoot a ton of shots, and that means they'll be ample opportunities for offensive boards. Who better to be in that position than the best offensive rebounder of all time? Moses will be an absolute force under the basket, and he's going to be a nightmare to defend one-on-one.
Alex English will be the driving perimeter force of the squad, as one of the most underrated scorers in NBA history. He thrived on those speedy Nuggets teams, and he'll do the same here. When I need a bucket, English will be the first guy up to bat
Tim Hardaway Sr. will be the primary ball handler on the team, opening up opportunities for every one else on the team. Hardaway will be constantly looking to push the pace, using his dazzling crossovers and great athleticism to be a menace on the fast break.
Joe Dumars will be my secondary ball handler on the team, and will both space the floor for the rest of the team and look to score when needed. Joe D was spectacular at knowing when to defer to to his teammates, and when to take over and hit the clutch shot. On defensive he'll guard the best opposing backcourt player.
Cliff Robinson will act as an off ball player, stretching the floor and playing off of the other scorers on the team. He'll take advantage of the lesser focus on him to get some easy fast break points. On defense, he'll guard the most imposing player on the other team's frontcourt.
