One Player From Each Decade......
Make your best starting five:
You can only take one player from the 70s, 80s, 90, 2000s, 2010s
Caveats are:
-The player had to have played at least six seasons in that decade
-You must draft a COMPLETE starting five. A pure PG, SG, SF, PF, C (meaning no using something like two shooting guards and playing one at SF)

And Jordan didn't play 5 years in the 80s. I mean I don't see an issue with having Wilt as a 70s player. It just wouldn't be his best years I reckon.

Yeah he did. 84/85 to-89/90. I dunno, I didn't make the damn rules. But 3 seasons ain't enough.

Oh I missed the 6 year thing. Ignore my answer then. Don't really care enough to look into this criteria.

I mean as in he missed 5 seasons in the 80s, the same way Wilt missed 6 seasons in the 70s.
Also, two of those seasons for Jordan was his rookie season and a season where he missed the entire regular season. (Wilt missed most of the 1970 season also)

Oh it was six years in the decade. Dunno how I got it in my head it was drafted in the decade. :shrug:
Shaq 00s, so Duncan out, 70sfan at PF
Seems like you're kinda screwed if you don't take KAJ at C. Theres no other powerhouse that was 6 years in the 70s.
