With the third pick of what ever round this is I take: The Iceman, George Gervin
Gervin was the model that of what people look for in the 2 Guard position. Great size at 6'7" with great handles and a fantastic ability to finish at the rim along with a good jump shot. Gervin's NBA carrier stats come out at an incredible 26 PPG along with 5 rebounds, 3 assists, a steal, and a block. He wasn't just a shooting guard he was a "making guard" shooting 51% from the field and 84% from the FT line for his carrier. Gervin could also carry his team when needed as proven by him scoring 40 plus points a game an amazing 74 times.
13-time NBA All-Star. All-time leading scorer for the Boston Celtics. Scored at least 1,000 points in each of his 16 seasons. Highest scoring white player (sorry, it is a Jazz forum afterall) in NBA history.
Wow. I'm between a couple players here but I'm going to pass up the statistical choice for the guy who makes my team more complete in my opinion.
Jerry West. Mr. Clutch. I'll play him at the 1 defensively since Kidd can guard any two.
In the 70's he averaged about 25ppg, 8apg, and 4.3apg. He also had 2.6 spg in the last year of his career, the first in which they began keeping track of the stat. And he was a dead eye shooter at 47.4% from the floor.
Kidd penetrating and either finding Shaq or kicking it out to Bird or West is deadly. Good luck with that. Way too many strong iq's here and team players who are winners and can do everything, pass, rebound, shoot (not Kidd), get steals.
