Tough choice here, but ultimately I am going to PASS.

Positional scarcity and time between this pick and the next are forcing me to do this, also never had this guy and always wanted him, I will take Kawhi Leonard.

Yeah with the stars disappearing I cant pass here. Similar logic as Jory, Ill take KD, 41 is a lot on two SFs but ah well, gotta get that wing talent.

Ugh this is way tougher than it should be. Do I go with LeBron’s running mate even though he’s a poor 3 point shooter, or do I go with a cheap center even though center is a ridiculously deep position? Or I can even take a cheap wing. Ultimately I *think* this is the right choice.

This may be the only chance I have to ever pull this off, so yolo, I will take Scottie Pippen.

Im in a fairly similar place as Wack here but stock/barkley being gone makes this a little easier. This is almost definitely the right decision just to get them out in these high rounds still.
