I like this pick. I'll have to replace him now on my short list.
 
I'll take Kevin McHale

I have a question. This could apply to any player, but it mainly applies to players who either had their careers cut short by injuries or who only played like superstars for a limited number of years due to injury. Are we allowed to to say that we are only focusing on a player for a period of 5 or 6 years or are we just looking at their entire career averages?

We count only the player's prime. This is like you had a time machine, and you picked each player at their best.
 
I must say that you have one incredibly tough team so far.

I also want them to be winners. Someone like Al Jefferson can average 50 ppg, and make it to the all time greats list. But he'd still be a loser, playing a loser's game, dragging the rest of the team with him.

Just my opinion.

We're essentially taking players from their best years. But if a player's career was severely damaged by injuries, that might affect how voters see them...even if we are technically picking them in their good years. Just something to keep in mind.

It's an excellent point. Voting is highly subjective all around.
 
OK people, I'm logging out for today, I'll be back tomorrow evening... JK. I'm off Wednesdays. So I'll be back in the morning(in my time zone) which is 7-10 hours away(depends on my mood in the morning).

You know that even with this warning, everyone will still give you a hard time if we end up waiting on you, right?
