Although Jesus Shuttlesworth would be the better pick.

I thought I saw you in the thread! I was actually going to @ you and a couple of the other drafters from last time but we filled up.
Want to help us judge?

ugh, was trying to avoid another guard, but i don't want to let this guy slip away. Guy was one of the top guards of the decade definitely, then injuries started to slow him down fast. Grabbing him the decade before the injuries started coming in
Deron Williams - the Utah years - 00s, PG
getting sleepy so don't hve the sell for him, but he was averaging a few steals and over 10 assists a game 5 of the 6 years in Utah. i remember when he went to the Nets and it was made out to be one of the biggest moves over few years in the NBA.
gives me a filthy backcourt with him and AI. Deron also had upper 30s for good part of his career from 3

Nice pick. Once you have your pantheon team filled, it doesn’t matter how many guards (or like me, centers) you pick in a row. Just have to fill out those decades teams now.

Bill Sharmon, G , 60s and before
I know, I know, a Celtic. But he’s too great to pass up. And he does have a little bit of a Lakers legacy as well (as coach of perhaps the greatest team ever.)

No worries.
We’re already one third of the way through the drafting and we just started the clock (checks notes) . . . yesterday.

11.03 Karl-Anthony Towns C (moving BenThereMissedThat to F) 2010s
Was surprised, in my Beal research, to find that KAT actually played half that decade. What a waste. Even tho he aint half the player and barely seems to care (NOTHING harshes a young man's chill these days...FAX) , he gotta be singin' the KG Blues already.
sry, Frosty. (ETA: #BlameZelmo)

I stared and stared and stared at him for a good half-hour yesterday thinking that I should probably take him but just couldn't do it.
Jimmy Buckets was right, the dude is just soft.

11.04 - Andre Iguadola SF 10's
A good glue guy, and if I'm going to compete for the top spot in 2010s, I need somebody that can match up at least a little bit with LeBron and have some championship experience.
Iggy was a two-time all defensive team member, an All-star, a three-time champion and a Finals MVP. He will do the job on the wing that Horford does in the paint and that is whatever it takes to win.

This probably isn’t the right pick if I’m trying to win this thing. But once I started with 2 players from the 50s-60s I knew I wouldn’t have a chance just give recency bias. So I’m going to continue to have fun with it.
I now have my dream all offense, make it a race to 120 every night with an 80s squad that can score from everywhere on the court and do it with style.
11.05 Tom Chambers PF 80s
4x All Star, 2x All NBA
6’10” freak who at his peak was giving you 25/8/5/3/1/1 on 50% shooting and 85% from the line. Was a great jump shooter with an underutilized 3 point range. Was an absolute monster attacking the basket in traffic and was about as dangerous on the fast break as any player of the era. Between him and Dominique, the paint will be a scary place for defenders.

Yeah, i'm in a similar boat with the 60s and 70s guys. Having to look a lot up. Know a few, but funny when i look them up and they aren't on any top all time list. Think i will break out some of those surprises soon

@EYLive is on the clock now (and it has started). Will give him one hour from now since no one @'d him.

Movie draft I was good, here there’s definitely a lot of research and YouTube. I’ve gone back and watched a ton of old movies. Can’t say I’ve gone back and watched old NBA seasons.

I didn't trust him to make it back to me and he was a key part to my overall draft plans. I think he was drafted a round too early based on who is still out there in other eras, but I needed him more than those other guys.

11.6 SG Joe Johnson, 10s (may slot into 00s later)
Well, all 3 guys I was thinking of are still there, which means you are all dumb, so I'll go with the great shooter. He has 7 All-Star Appearances with 3 coming in 00s and 4 in the 10s, and his all-NBA team is in the 10s so I am going with the 10s for now.
Career numbers: 16.0ppg, 4.0rpg, 3.9apg, .497 eFG%, Peak: 19.8ppg, 4.0rpg, 4.7apg, .602 eFG%. 7x All Star, 1x All-NBA. 12th in NBA History in made 3s. Never a defensive stud, but never a liability either, he gives me another stud shooter to put around Lebron in the 10s who can also play some defense and rebound, and do a little bit of everything. Like an Andre Iguadala with a killer jumpshot.
2010s team:
PG:
SG: Joe Johnson
SF: Lebron
PF: Kevin Love
C - Lamarcus Aldridge

So I started watching basketball in the 80s, was most into it in the 90s (including a lot of reading about the history), kind of stopped watching in the 00s, and fell back in love in the 10s. My draft reflects this.
I was just about posting that he had already been taken. Didn't realize it was you that took him...hahaa

00 team stats
Kind of a team built for the early 00s where shooting was less of a concern, pace was slow, and defense was paramount.

i was going to say the opposite - not a lot of size for that packed-in age before the Geniuses of Basketball realized, after only 25 yrs, that 3 was 1 more than 2. also wont be long before a member of that backcourt calls the Agent Zero Hotline for a gun.. hella squad, tho

Cool site, I am using it so much now I should probably kick in the couple bucks to support them and look at how my squads fare.
