Posey added with MLE.
Looking for an upgrade at the 4. No one is off limits in trade talks. |

^too young to have seen Pippen play in his prime?
Watch tapes of the 91 finals when Pippen's defense on Magic was huge. Or the 97 eastern finals when he dominated Mark Jackson.
Who do you think was the initiator on all those Bulls teams?

I know he was the main ball handler, but just because you are the initiator in the triangle, that doesn't make you a PG.
but then again, with the lack of real PGs we see today, he'd probably be a better distributor than a lot of the shoot first guys.. |

| ^also just because he is listed as the PG, doesn't mean he has to bring the ball up every time. I might run a two guard set with him and Joe Johnson which would look like what the Lakers used to do with Ron Harper and Kobe. |

Yeah I like how you drafted your guards and forwards. JJ is really a high scoring, large combo guard and Scottie is a point forward so either can bring the ball up. Barry was no slouch with the rock, either. Your guard rotation should be nasty.

My plan was to surround my main ball handler(Pippen) with two dead eye shooters(Johnson, Barry) who could also somewhat create their own shot. I am happy with how it turned out. |

Trade News:
Buffalo would like to welcome Terry Porter as your new starting PG. Terry brings stability to the position. Scottie Pippen will now move back to the point forward position after spending practice time at the point.
When reached for comment about the trade Scottie said, "Thank God." |
