Gentlemen,
With my first pick, I draft...
Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon
All-time leader in blocks!
Perhaps the greatest player to ever play the game in the low block!
Bringing it on both ends of the court!

Haha. Funny.
I guess our boys are cool. Hey I got an idea. Let's team up. We''ll trade all your best pieces to my team and will crush them. Shaq and Hakeem together would be sick.
Or we could work out a trade. Ill trade my 5th , 6th and 10th pick for Hakeem.

Absolutely agree with Hack on this one!
I had Hakeem rated higher than Shaq due to his versatility and ability to play hard the whole game. They're close though. You could argue that Shaq wasn't in his prime when they met in the Finals.

It was shaq's third year, and not only that, it wasn't his fault they lost. He did his job.

I select...
LEBRON JAMES
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mSgMRrclOLI
- 3x NBA MVP
- 1x NBA Champion
- 1x NBA Finals MVP
- 8x NBA All-Star
- 8x All-NBA Honors
- 4x All-Defensive Teams
- fun stat: averaged the most assists over the course of a season by a forward ever with 8.6 in 2009-10 (broke Larry Bird's record).
- the body of Malone, passing ability of Magic, scoring of Jordan (okay, not quite).
This past season, Lebron became just the second player to ever win NBA MVP of the regular season, NBA-Finals MVP, and an Olympic Gold Medal in the same season. Can you guess who the other was?
Lebron had an absolutely flawless performance this post season, posting triple doubles, 40+ point games, playing/guarding every position, and coming up big in clutch moments. In this post season, he averaged 30 points, 10 rebounds, 6 assists.
On picking him over Kobe:
-Lebron has superior career averages in points, rebounds, assists, blocks, and steals.
-Kobe's best statistcal post season was in 2007 when he averaged 33 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists. 30/10/6 > 33/5/4...not to mention, Kobe didn't even win the title that particular year.
-Lebron will work better on a super-team, imo, due to his versatility.
Magic on Lebron after the 2012 Finals:
"Before, my biggest knock on LeBron was he was just playing off his God gifted talent. He was just the best athlete. But he didn't play with his head to match that. Now he's playing with his talent and with his head, and wow, watch out. This guy is going to set the league on fire for a long time."

NUMB, I'll add you. Wes too, as I believe you were serious. You'll be picking 11th and 12th. Sending PM's to them, just FYI.
If they don't reply/pick in the 24 hour period, we'll eliminate them from the group and play with our original 10.

Haha, yes. And picking between Lebron and Kobe took some real thought.
Starting at Center for the Catchalls, at 7'1", 280 lbs., from somewhere in Kansas: Wilt Chamberlain
https://www.ultimate-youth-basketball-guide.com/images/wilt-chamberlain-21357928.jpg
4x MVP
2x NBA Champion
Averaged nearly 38 points and 27 rebounds ...as a rookie
Averaged over 50 PPG and 25 RPG in just his third year in the league
Is the reason the NBA invented the 3-second rule and widened the lane.
Is the reason the NBA required players to release the ball at the free-throw line when shooting free throws (because Wilt could dunk his)
Holds the record for scoring 100 points in a single game
Inspired the phrase, "Why y'all gotta bring that kool-aid up in here?"
Is reported to have slept with over 10,000 women.
Also inspired the invention of the wah-wah pedal
(okay, I made that up)
Got traded to the Lakers before it was cool for HOF centers to get traded to the Lakers
Here he is dunking on other legends like Bill Russell - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8xr3i9jpiTE
One of the few players to warrant cheesy Epic Story soundtrack here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z4WZXiaDzyc
I actually had him at #1 on my Big Board. I'm surprised he's available with the 9th pick.
Carry on.
