[riah32]

With their second pick of the day the Bobcats are delighted to add "the Chief" Robert Parish.

With their 7th round pick, the Milwaukee Bucks select:



Arvydas Sabonis

Arguably the best big man on the board, and almost certainly the best remaining center.  Nice selection.

You man
are my boy now

SABONIS ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!


But still two of my guys on the board
I mean dominating sueprstars i mean

I agree, All I know is that in NBA Live 2000 for N64, Sabonis was the only one that could handle Shaq

Now that you've shared that info, its definitely going in my team presentation.   

An NBA Live simulation says it is so then it must be so....right?

With their pick in the 7th round, the Chicago Bulls select Boris Diaw.

Great pick.

I was weighing back & forth on him and Sabonis.

Chief was still very stron in the early 90s.  Couple of All Star appearances.

Yea I noticed that and with all ready having Howard I figured I couldnt go wrong with the Chief off the bench.

Redd's solid. Couple great years pre-injury

also, judging from "cliff robinson's" '91-'92 season, We'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you meant "clifford robinson" (going by bball reference names)

[GaBerkowitz]

yes Clifford Robinson

[Redz]

With their pick in the 7th round, the Chicago Bulls select Boris Diaw.

Good luck finding Diaw love on this blog. 

I stumbled across Diaw's name on a list of single playoff season Points Leaders while poking around on Basketball Reference.  His 374 points in 05-06 playoffs rank 177th All Time.  He averaged over 18 points that post season.

177th doesn't seem like a big deal, but when you weed out all of the pre 1990 #'s and the eligible players who are on there multiple times this would rank pretty high among the available draftable players.  Since we're looking at single seasons only, I'd say Diaw's post season that year makes him a decent pick.

THERE!  There's some support.

The list is a pretty interesting one actually:

Coach can be any head or assistant coach who coached NBA, NCAA or a national team competing in international competition during the seasons 1989-90 to 2009-10
