    Uuuuuuugh. I told myself I was going to do it, leaving the third best basketball player of all time on the board in favor of a couple guys with great PERS, but I can't! It's Bill ****ing Russell!

    The Washington Generals of Los Angeles County

    Center: Bill Russell ('57 - '58)
    Power Forward: Tim Duncan ('01 - '02)

    i think russell is a great pick. his per isn't as high as some other guys, but there was never a greater defensive player.

    Certainly was a dominant center. And Duncan is another good selection.

    his per is about the same as tracy mcgrady who went before him so that helped me not feel as bad about it. lol

    also, i feel like with Russell and Timmy I have the makings of a pretty decent defensive squad.

    He wouldn't have fallen past me, to be honest. I really wanted that old-school Admiral/Duncan duo at the 4 and 5.

    Please welcome ... Fake Stephen A Smith ...

    [​IMG]

    As someone with the AUDACITY to say women should share the blame when they are the victim of domestic abuse, I can be considered something of an expert on horrible decisions.

    But no.

    But no.

    BUT NO.

    Someone's got to go and one up me.

    Look. Tracy McGrady is a ballplayer. He is. But you got to be smoking something from Colorado to take him ahead of Bill Russell.

    Now, the lot of you should be ashamed. Bill Russell, tenth overall? That's RIDICULOUS. But some of you could justify it. A little bit. Passing over that legend. That icon.

    But Tracy McGrady?

    QUITE FRANKLY, Isiah Thomas wouldn't make a decision that bad.

    You oughta be ashamed ...

    I was hoping Hakeem would last as well. That seemed to be the direction things were trending.

    Right, the Admiral and Hakeem were the two people I were wondering why they were still up.

    Prenn and Tunes have the best duos so far. I expect NYJ to top them, however.
