You have to pair decades like that for three of your four picks, but you can take a "wild card" pair at any time. So something like 80s/10s could be done, but only once.


Thanks, also you can't pick two players that made first team all-nba even if it wasn't during the year you selected?

Can you do picks from the same decade? 00s/00s for example?

Correct. If the player made first team at any point he always counts as your first teamer in a pair.

Got it, but you may want a backup if you can get one. I'll be in and out today.

You have to specify now in order to avoid any issues later on, which I believe has happened in the past. Thanks!

Alrighty.

I THINK I know what combination of players I want.

Need to do some double check checking though.

Go.

I've never taken a direction like the one I just took. Hopefully I didn't blow it.

Draymond is definitely one of the better non-all NBA first choices, and Bill Russell has to be close-ish to best value pick available, especially given how inexpensive he is.

Certainly won't have any defensive matchup issues in the front court, and I love the passing/playmaking offensive possibilities that big duo generates as well.

Damn I really wanted Bill Russell to fall but knew it wasn't likely since I have such a high pick.
