Was hoping to get in on this one but those were the top 4 in my own rankings, really good teams here. **** way she goes

Yeah I had that exact four as well.

I really need to step my game up - lately I've been going into the rankings knowing I have no chance of making the playoffs.

I thought I had a chance in this one but knew it’d be tough as most would vote those 4

I tried.

Snell
Smash
Bird

Dream, Duncan, Nash and Manu is pretty tough - thought people slept on Smash.

I felt I should’ve made this one, but Dr J never gets any love and I had no true PG, so not too surprised.

Would’ve been nice if Conley/Miller were possible

I had you in my top 4, but I am a Dr J lover. Bird/Dr J provided enough playmaking to me, but voters have historically been averse to non traditional lineups.

I didn't have a huge problem with no traditional PG, but your defense was just ok for this pool

Yea, but if you voted for Harden/Dirk, then you can do Larry Bird/Reggie defensively. Pretty sure my offense held me back here

Interesting... I feel Dantley and I both definitely had a better team than LAbird (no offense). Should have gone playoffs in this one.

Bad at forward. Love will get abused, although DRob does mitigate that. Derrick Williams can’t start against Lebron/Dr J/etc

Derrick Williams starting at SF was your main problem, the rest wasn't too bad

Thought I had a damn good team of Curry/Richmond/Pippen/Barkley/Gobert with Rodman off the bench, coulda matched up with the final 4 I think but def new it’d be tough to get in, thought the top 4 were pretty clear imo. Would be nice to see how I was ranked.....might be overrating my team as usual lol

Thought I'd make the cut in this one. I think people gravitate towards a clear offensive hierarchy, which I didn't have.

I don't love 15 Davis at center, especially in an 80s pool
