I'm glad the 77-79 seasons are in this, they are badly needed. This will thin out quickly by Rd 3

Yeah there are only 20 or 21 cores that won championships from 1977-2020, 13/44 "best players on a team" are already taken.

Anyone interested in trading picks? I would like to move down the draft order.

I welcome the thinner field for a change. 77-79 doesn't add that much.

Didn't see that Bird pick coming.

He was the best wing left in a deep center pool--I find the pick great.

Very defensible pick, just accustomed to seeing one or two others at that position going before him.

I have a big drop off around #20 or so, in Theory I am in a good spot for this draft.

I figured the FGA difference between Bird and Durant wouldn't matter as much this draft
