Thanks for running this one. Quick clarifying question: because it wasn't otherwise specified, I'm going to assume that ABA Titles/Championships do not count - only NBA - is that correct?

Correct


unless I'm mistaken, it's back to you after you had picked for Flaco

Yeah, the site was acting up after I posted flaco's pick. I'll make mine in a little while.

We could do a different version of this game at some point as well where they only had their top accolade once.

Stan and Larry are both up for a second pick (Stan's time had eclipsed before the Bowen pick, and so it was Larry's turn officially after I picked), but either poster can now make their final selection.

I decided to take Iverson after getting Jokic and Payton in the first two rounds. It felt too right. The best part about taking a guy like Iverson is that you can wait until the last round. I know other people don't rate him as highly as I do, but this is the kind of build I always wanted to see around him.

I think I made a great team this time.

There should be great playstyle synergy with everyone and maxkmize Luka while mitigating his defense

Luka/howard should be a lethal pick and roll with shooting/attacking from all other positions.

I think a very good bench too.
