You're going to need to pair him with another hoofed animal.

I was hoping the next several drafters forgot Lebron was even in this thing.

I would have liked to see OKC Paul George instead of Clippers PG (who's the worse version). I knew there was no chance of that given the Lakers pairing though. I thought (insert Lakers MVP here) with PG was a pretty clear first pick.

Probably OP in these but I'm starting to worry less about balance in these.

I thought about that MVP, but I dont see anyone who can slow shaq. So I wanted him.

I wasn’t talking about any specific Laker MVP.

There are multiple who would be justifiable as a first pick with PG. Shaq is one of them.

The way the draft is unfolding, I just want to double-check before locking in Wackbone’s pick. I'll wait a bit more, the clock isn't starting yet.

Yeah I’m actually around now. I will make my pick after all. Likely around 3/3:30 pm est

I'm glad that I waited for you because you didn't list LeBron in your options. I guess you didn't think he'll be available. That was my concern
