I am going to regret this pick instantly. I know it. But I am going to go ahead and select Andrew Bogut. Strong interior defense will be big here, and he can be pretty cheap depending on the season selection.

This is a such tough decision as I was going back and forth for a while. My plan all along was to build around Westbrook even though I was wavering with another player who I'm still surprised available, but looking at who is available at point guard position, I have to go with Westbrook. I gave him three solid three point shooters to work with in Bell, Detlef, and Ibaka (off ball players too) who he can dish it to or they can get out of the way simply and let Westbrook do his magic inside. Love the passion/heart he plays with. I never built around him before either so that was another reason I went with Westbrook. One of the best seasons of all time. Good luck stopping him!

I select Rik Smits. Often overlooked in these games but was the starting center for teams that reached 4 Eastern Conferance Finals.

Not sure how I'll use him, but this is about landing talent, talent, and lots of it.

Second pick I select Evan Fournier.

Just get myself some nice shooting.

On phone so no pics, but I'm using my exception here.

Larry Bird

Lots of Centers still available, so I think this is the right pick here. I'm really digging my big three of Manu-Bird-Porzingis

Vladimir Radmanovic
Greivis Vasquez
Comments to rationalize bad contracts -
1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy
