OT-$15 to spend-UConn Team

[MDHuskFan]

Saw this on IG, thought it’d be a great debate for the Boneyard. You have 15 dollars to construct the best UConn team.

 

[mauconnfan]

Ray, Hasheem, Caron, Smitty and AJ. $15

 

[WrenchFan69]

Price, Allen, Caron, Villanueva, Hash

 

[methodology]

Aj Price - $1
Ray - $5
BG - $4
Caron - $3
Charlie V - $2

 

[Palatine]

That 's good little game.

AJ Price -1
Ray Allen -5
Jeremy Lamb -4
Caron Butler -3
Amida Brimah-2

 

[Peacefrog]

AJ, Ben, Lamb, Caron, Andre

 

[gampelcrazies]

Carlton, Adams, Bouknight???? Those names should not be on this list

 

[Tyler2Rings]

PG- AJ Price ($1)
SG- Chris Smith ($2)
SF- Rip Hamilton ($5)
PF- Caron Butler ($3)
C- Hasheem Thabeet ($4)

 

[navery12]

Kemba - $5
Gordon - $4
Bouknight - $2
Daniels - $1
Drummond - $3

 

[WrenchFan69]

Carlton, Adams, Bouknight???? Those names should not be on this list

Hilton Armstrong not being in over Carlton is repulsive. Bouknight is a weird inclusion over the likes of Dyson, think Adams is fine he almost held this program together for 2 years single-handed and is a top 10 (or damn near) scorer

 

[CTBasketball]

$1 AJ Price (absolute steal he was an AA by some)
$2 Chris Smith
$2 Charlie Villanueva
$5 Ray Allen
$5 Emeka Okafor

 

[nadavtheman]

Why is josh Carlton a $1 option? I can think of many other better $1 options, let's start with centers if that's why he's here. Josh Boone, Hilton Armstrong, maybe even rod Sellers.

 

[nadavtheman]

Kevin Freeman, Jeff Adrien, Denham Brown, Nadav, Doron, Dyson all better too

 

[tcf15]

$4 Shabazz Napier
$3 Ryan Boatright
$1 Niels Giffey
$3 Caron Butler
$4 Hasheem Thabeet

 

[HooperScooper]

A.J. and Caron are steals at $1 and $3 respectively so I'll go with:

PG: A.J. Price - $1
SG: Ben Gordon - $4
SF: Rip Hamilton - $5
PF: Caron Butler -$3
C: Amida Brimah - $2 (didn't want to but couldn't change any of my other picks and figured the C position was the least valuable on this team).

[NEforceUConn]

Chris Smith $2
Ben Gordon $4
Giffey $1
Caron Butler $3
Okafor $5

Love this team for the $15

 

[progrocks]

A.J. and Caron are steals at $1 and $3 respectively so I'll go with:

Seriously, any team put together not using those two is completely missing out on the idea of value.

 

[NEforceUConn]

A.J. and Caron are steals at $1 and $3 respectively

I agree on Caron, but think Chris Smith at $2 is better value than AJ

 

[White Dwarf]

I'll take kemba and everyone else from the dollar store. Keep the change.

 

[Lamble]

Chris Smith at $2 is the absolute steal of this draft. If you aren't aware of that, you never saw him play.

 

[BigEastCT]

I'll take Alex O, Boone and Armstrong over Carlton for 50cents

 

[Palatine]

Chris Smith at $2 is the absolute steal of this draft. If you aren't aware of that, you never saw him play.

Chris was more of a scoring PG and AJ was more of a facilitator. So with Ray, Lamb and Caron they need a distributor. I really wanted Marcus Williams.

 

[MDHuskFan]

I went Kemba, Price, Giffey, Caron, Emeka

 

[PChoops]

I know I'm a PC fan, but no Marshall so far.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Love these games:

$5 Kemba, $4 Gordon, $1 Giffey, $2 Villanueva, $3 Drummond

Two lead guards who can get to the bucket, two big shooters who can rebound and a rebounding magnet.

 

[Old school]

point guard-Smith $2
sg -Allen $5
sf- Hamilton $5
c - Okafor $5
pf- Butler $3

 

[HuskyBandDad]

point guard-Smith $2
sg -Allen $5
sf- Hamilton $5
c - Okafor $5
pf- Butler $3

You spent too much. Only allowed $15. You must be a Yankees fan.

 

[Tenspro2002]

AJP - $1
Shabazz - $4 (yes, 2 PGs)
Giffey - $1
Caron - $3
Okafor - $5

And I use the $1 left over to light a cigar to celebrate my championship.

That team has ballhandling, elite outside shooting at 4 positions, lock-down defense on the perimeter, and rim protection with a credible inside threat. Oh yeah, and superior basketball IQ.

 

[Mr. French]

point guard-Smith $2
sg -Allen $5
sf- Hamilton $5
c - Okafor $5
pf- Butler $3

Dang good team, which makes sense given that you spent $20!
