LeBron/Manu was one of the first pairings I looked at, but didn't expect to go first because I didn't think people valued 2020 LeBron quite that highly. But LeBron was a beast in the 2020 playoffs.

I had LeBron/Manu first on the list I made before the 90s were added. I don’t think the 90s adds anything I’d take before that pair.

Both Jokic and Drexler have made the All-NBA First Team.

Clyde made a first team in 91-92 so this pick is not valid.

Probably some better duos than Jokic/Porter

But kind of cheap pair

Also annoying that Kings get paired with stacked Golden state

I like that a good franchise is saddled with a lousy one.

I think it makes the pools more interesting- there is a tradeoff.

I would have gone Jokic-Porter regardless at that spot.

Been a minute.

Oh man, that's rough.

I was really hoping to pick tonight.
