I will get defense later. This level of offense from my first two picks can’t be passed up on. Also now have 2 MVPs.

Big downgrade from TMac, but on the flip side I do get to save FGA

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

Looks like my safest bet is Alonzo Mourning again.

Per list, Smash selects Paul George.

I've done no research. Will need a few minutes for my pick.

Clyde Drexler.

I already have plenty of 3 point shooting. Drexler wasn't an amazing defender by any means, but he put up great defensive advanced stats for whatever reason, so I will take him as a neutral-good defender. He serves his purpose.
