So is Ralph Sampson truly the next Moses?

Re: 1983 Draft Discussion
I am VERY curious who the Cavs pick here. Could go a number of directions honestly.

Re: 1983 Draft Discussion
Notes on Harper were solid. A 20ppg PG with good defense can be a game changer In FBB

Re: 1983 Draft Discussion
Yeah you can make an argument of sorts that,d epending on team need, he COULD have gone ahead of Sampson if a team was stacked at the big- because his notes are incredible.

Re: 1983 Draft Discussion
Moses Malone was put in there for a reason. Made sure he would be the top pick. Harper is good, just not MVP good. Having a scoring PG does really help the league transition into more outside shooting teams.chipper wrote:Yeah you can make an argument of sorts that,d epending on team need, he COULD have gone ahead of Sampson if a team was stacked at the big- because his notes are incredible.

Re: 1983 Draft Discussion
Yeah and the PG position in FBB is so broken- it's why there are limits as to who can play it. PG is such an advantage in this game it's crazy.jibbajabba614 wrote:Moses Malone was put in there for a reason. Made sure he would be the top pick. Harper is good, just not MVP good.

Re: 1983 Draft Discussion
Zyme was the one who figured out the glitch in the game. Point guards with 70+ handles break the game. Reason why we try to keep them at a 30-40 range in the draft.chipper wrote:Yeah and the PG position in FBB is so broken- it's why there are limits as to who can play it.
