Jokic is almost a cheat in these games man. So cheap for such a massive impact player.

I like Kemp as his poeet forward too. Hope others do. But Shawns athleticism, vertical lob threat and help defense are awesome.

Kemp at 11.9fga who in the playoffs gave 21ppg, 10.5rpg, 1.5spg and 2bpg.

Jokic is always a good pick, but I thought pairing him with a different player was a potential #1 overall.

Think that other player may have become a bit overrated on here. LeBron/Ray was a clear #1 for me.
