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.

Staying at second to last would have gone just fine as well apparently.

There’s a couple of pairs I really liked that hadn’t been taken yet.

I didn’t expect to get Giannis and Steph. I figured at least one would be taken already.

Giannis & Steph are great but I liked their players to pare less than Chauncey with KD

I'm shedding no tears for Giannis/Steph/Eddie, KD/DRob/Chauncey, or Embiid/Luka/Draymond. I do like Embiid and Luka more than most. IMO, there are a couple guys like Embiid who get downgraded for the last couple seasons even though they are selected for a great year.

Went really cheap on PJ and passed on a fourth starter, hoping for another star next round.

I remember getting eviscerated for a Luka/Embiid pairing a few years back.
