So the rules don't fit in the topic so here they are...

Best team (meaning 5-8 players) to NEVER make the All-Star roster in the 80s vs the 90s vs the 00s (pick one decade and your opponent picks a decade- players have to have played 7 of 10 years in that decade to count)

I'm taking the 1990's

G: Rod Strickland
G: Derek Harper
F: Eddie Johnson
F: Sam Perkins
C:Rony Seikaly

Bench:
G: Byron Scott
G: Ron Harper
F: Chuck Person

Your up... good luck

Good Choices

Rod Strickland has to be one of the biggest snubs of all time, currently he is 7th all time in assists and is 1st amongst players to never make an all star game. He has 1616 career steals and 13733 points good for about 13/season.

Derek Harper had a very solid career, a great combo guard. He could score, 16000 points, pass, 6751 assists, and play D, 1958 steals all of these numbers are career numbers. He was a great guard who could do everything.

Eddie Johnson, this man could score with the best of them. 19202 career points speak for themselves. He has the most points scored of any player that has never played in an all star game. He averaged over 16ppg over 17 seasons.

Sam Perkins was a pretty solid overall player, he had 15324 career points and 7661 rebounds. He is third on the scoring list of players to never make an all star game. He could play everywhere on offense, down low or knock down the 3 ball.

Rony Seikaly never averaged less than double digits in scoring in his 11 seasons. He averaged 15 and 10 for his career. He is very consistent and suffered by playing with great centers (Ewing, Shaq, Robinson, Olajuwon, and Mutumbo).

More to come

Byron Scott could just score. He would be a great player off of the bench with help getting the ball in the basket. During his career he averaged 14ppg and 3apg, these are very good numbers considering he played with Magic, Worthy, and Kareem. During his career he scored 15097, good for 4th on the non all star scoring list.

Ron Harper is another player who could do everything. His career stats are averaged at 14ppg, 2spg, 4rpg, and 4apg. He will be known as a great compliment player, because of his roles on 5 NBA championship teams. This makes him perfect for my bench.

Chuck Person was a very good shooter he averaged 15ppg. His 5rpg and 3apg are pretty solid too. He would be another great role player off of my bench.

One thing that I see about your starting line up is that there isn't a ton of scoring, Camby and Brown are two post players that no one is scared of and you don't have any post scoring on your bench either. That would hurt your team.

I'm out of room your up. Good Luck
