Yup. Pau at PF for $1 is a no-brainer.
If you put him at PF he'd be $5 by the rules of this game. |
I agree w this. Then again half the people on here not playing by the rules. Still don't see anyone beating my team of magic, scott, baylor, lamar, pau, riley and 6th man norm nixon. Spacing, coaching, passing, defense, shooting, uptempo, slow tempo, post up, free throws. That team can do it all. |

Why waste a dollar on Nixon when a 6th man is just not needed as far as the game goes? Or you just prefer Riley over Phil, Pau over Mikan, Scott over Jones, and Odom over Horry?
I can see a team of Magic, Kobe, Rice, Odom, and Wilt with Sharman as the coach beating your team. Wilt would dominate Pau. |

The game doesn't exclude 6th men, but yes I do prefer all those ppl over their counterparts especially riley with magic on the team. Pau over Mikan is the only one I'm not sure about and that's just because I know very little about mikan. How much better is mikan over pau? |

Just saw some mikan vids. Not very impressed.
Honestly dmorans1 that team u posted is good. Baylor and kobe cancel each other out vs their counterparts. Scott has a slight edge over rice since rice was passed his prime w lakers. Magic and lamar cancel themselves. Then wilt obviously beats pau. But I think riley obviously beats sharman. So you're left with a slight edge for scott and norm nixon off the bench with a far superior passing team in baylor, magic, lamar, and pau all being probably the best passing players at their position for a time when they played fir the lakers. Cohesiveness there and depth I think wins out. Kobe and magic both really need the ball in their hands, as does wilt. Wilt sucks at free throws too. |

| Well if you're gonna break the rules by adding Nixon into your analysis then let me do the same. Magic, Kobe, Scott, Odom, Wilt with Sharman and Pau off the bench. Kobe has the advantage over Elgin since they are both being guarded by Scott. Wilt dominates Pau. Pau dominates Nixon. I win. |

Challenge you only have $18 in cap to build your Lakers team. |
Norm Nixon $1 (1)
Kobe Bryant $5 (6)
Elgin Baylor $5 (11)
Pau Gasol $1 (12)
Wilt Chamberlain $3 (15)
Coach: John Kundla $3 (18)
or
Norm Nixon $1 (1)
Kobe Bryant $5 (6)
Elgin Baylor $5 (11)
Pau Gasol $1 (12)
Wilt Chamberlain $3 (15)
Coach: Bill Sharman $2 (17)
6th Man: Lamar Odom $1 (18)
8th Man: Smush Parker FREE (18)
Game over ^_^ |
Dude, that team can't beat this team, come on now.
Magic Johnson $5 (1)
Kobe Bryant $5 (10)
Lebron James $0 (10)
Pau Gasol $1 (11)
Shaq $4 (15)
Coach: Phil Jackson $5 (20)
My team'll beat yours by 25 every night! |
leBron James isn't an option 
No team put together is beating
Norm Nixon $1 (1)
Kobe Bryant $5 (6)
Elgin Baylor $5 (11)
Pau Gasol $1 (12)
Wilt Chamberlain $3 (15)
Coach: Bill Sharman $2 (17)
6th Man: Lamar Odom $1 (18)
8th Man: Smush Parker FREE (18)
Just not gonna happen lol. You have Baylor, Kobe and Chamberlain, the defensive Nixon and Chamberlain and two post threats.
Yeah... it's game over 
But some have said Pau doesn't count at 4 cause he's a center in this game instead of a power forward. But 6th men aren't excluded..
Okay then Then
Nixon (1) 1
Kobe (5) 6
Baylor (5) 11
Odom (1) 12
Shaq (4) 16
Coach: Bill Sharman (2) 18
Kobe, Baylor, Shaq., with Nixon as point guard. Game over.
Dunno why Nixon is so low on the list given he was a solid defender and a 17/10 guy even when sharing the floor with Magic.
OR.. if I wanted to take advantage of the 6th man being allowed. I'd do this.
Nixon (1) 1
Kobe (5) 6
Baylor (5) 11
Odom (1) 12
Wilt (3) 15
Coach: Sharman (2) 17
6th man: Pau Gasol (1) 18
So now I can run lineups with Pau when Odom is on the bench.
So basically I can get my
Norm Nixon
Kobe Bryant
Elgin Baylor
Pau Gasol
Wilt Chamberlain
lineup going whenever I want or whenever I'm resting Odom. Or rather essentially the same team as the one above with the one change that Odom just starts till Pau comes in so that it isn't breaking the game but achieving the same result ^_^
This is fun ^_^ |

| Dwight at 25 cents is actually not a bad deal but I think he was included in there as a joke and not to be taken seriously. |

You're team is sweet either way and you got $1 to spare but I can see why you went with the cheaper guys, in terms of fit they're better.
Think if I could slide Scott to SF or Kobe I can beat your team since Kobe would have the advantage over Elgin. You're right though, Rice is washed up but I didn't wanted to put Ceballos in there. Maybe replace Sharman with Del Harris and Rice with Fox, Kobe again has the advantge but you have a massive advantage in coaching which may or may not be that important with Magic and Kobe out there. |

The problem is that if you get Dwight at 25 cents, there is no other good Laker you can get for 75 cents unless you go for the bin and select another reject like Kwame.
For example:
PG - Magic - $5
SG - Kobe - $5
SF - Adam Morrison - 10 cents
PF - Dwight Howard - 25 cents
C - Kareem - $5
Coach - Bill Sharman - $2

So is a team of west, Kobe, rice, lo and Shaq, there is no chance pau can guard Shaq
To be honest, Kobe is a must have because the drop off the the steepest between him and the next. This game should have pau at pf for 5 because with the current setup, lo is a no brainer. The drop off between magic and west, or Kareem to Shaq and wilt is minimal |

Mikan was the first great superstar and he's historically important. You could argue that no one outside of Jordan had as much personal and team success as Mikan during his era. But his era was the 1950s. If you could magically transport Mikan from 1952 to 2015, he'd be nothing special. |

Better categories would be
PF
Gasol $5
Odom $4
Green $3
Horry $2
Thompson $1
SF
Baylor $5
Worthy $4
Wilkes $3
Fox $2
Rice $1
PG
Magic $5
West $4
Nixon $3
Fisher $2
As is, Odom at $1 is a no brainer and Nixon at $1 is close to a no-brainer.
Van Exel $1 |

I would argue jerry west and Baylor would both struggle against today's athletes. Mj would shoot closer to 45% instead of 50 i. Today's game because people defending him would be much quicker and athletic. |

Coach: PJax - $5... he has the winning system
PB: Fisher - $3... proven low tier player in the coach's system
SG: Kobe - $5... proven top tier player in the coach's system
SF: Fox - $3... proven mid tier player in the coach's system
PF: Gasol - $1... proven upper tier player in the coach's system
C: D12 - $.25... best bang-for-the-buck C available (if a gimped Bynum can win a ring, D12 should in this system)
Total: $17.25
Bench: Morrison, Kwame, T.Knight and Smush
Grand Total: $17.41
This is as much of a sure-fire Finals team as any (given the restrictions) while still being under the cap. |

Eh, when a team signs a player for a particular salary, the team gets to use that player on the court however they see fit. If I wanna buy all five centers, I can afford it. We'll lose, but that's what being a GM is about.
At least I forced myself to field a team of nine players since no one can play every minute all season and in the playoffs. |
