RULES:

Spoiler:
-The total FGA for the players you have selected in the years you have chosen cannot exceed 90.

-When you pick a player, you may choose to specify the year or not. If you do specify the year, you will be able to change it at a later stage, up until round 1 of the Playoffs starts.

-The window that has been tentatively decided upon is 8 hours. Therefore, after someone drafts, the next in line will have 8 hours to make his pick. If this is too short for you, please speak up.

-Please select player seasons with 50 or more games played. For the 1999 season, this comes to 30. For the 2012 season, this comes to 40.

-I decided that you are free to choose ABA players or pre-shot clock players if you want to, but do this at your own risk, as judges may have trouble evaluating these players and your team results may suffer as a result in the Playoffs.

-This is what I can think of, if I'm forgetting anything let me know.


With that, the Doctor is about to operate.

Alright, with the #1 overall pick, I select:

Image

LeBron "The Prince that was Promised" James

I've got mixed feelings about this pick. I've been pretty critical of LeBron's attitude in recent years and what that did to his ceiling. If I follow that reasoning through to its, I shouldn't pick him at #1 above all other options.

But standing here at this moment, it just doesn't seem rational to pick anyone else.

Michael Jordan

There were a lot of options I was considering here, but none of them could pull me away from his airness.

I was away all weekend, but as I come back I realize that some of the most dominant players are still on the board!

This is a difficult decision, but I will pick the greatest winner in Basketball History, Bill Russell.

My pick, a man who needs absolutely no introduction, a perfect fit in the modern game, the unprecedented guy who can fill the role of both the stretch four and the playmaking four. An underrated, scrappy defender, a tenacious rebounder, a guy who reads the floor perhaps better than anyone who's ever played, a guy who can dominate the game without ever taking a shot.

A tough SOB, ferocious competitor, the type of guy to break his hand in a bar fight on Saturday night and make it for Sunday tipoff.

Larry Legend

Image

I'm excited to see what kind of team I can build around him. The possibilities are endless. I don't know if there's a more flexible guy you can draft.

I don't believe he's still available. I had different plans but I just can't miss GOAT. He doesn't have any big weaknesses and gives me ultimate go-to guy with excellent passing down low (which is critical for me).

My pick: Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
