NBA Eras Draft

[The_Answer3]

I thought that it was supposed to be Jerry West?

Yeah it is, was just commenting on the pick after the big O

Probably have to consider Wilt a slider.

 

[Chadwiko]

I considered Wilt but figured that his position would be filled with talent in later eras.

KG top 10

Yeah, I have my eye on a few centers in later rounds.

 

[Chadwiko]

Dirk top 5?

My team already has enough white guys.

[JP Sauce]

Sorry it took so long Danger in Texas, I was planning on picking last night (my time) but I crashed early after my jelly bean sugar high wore off.

Apologies, I read your post wrong. Just ignore my early dementia

[Danger in Texas]

Needs more drafting.
Nah, take your time. I'm waiting for my assistant GM to get online

[Danger in Texas]

Gee, there's a really interesting pick I can make here.

 

[Danger in Texas]

"With the 10th pick in the NBA Eras Draft '1947-1962', the DK Alphabets select...

John Havlicek from the Boston Celtics."

Johnny 'Hondo' Havlicek. What can you say about the man? 8 rings (equal third most behind Russell and Jones), 13 all-star appearances, 4-time all-NBA first team, and 7-time all-NBA second team. Even that doesn't say anything about his game. He was a brilliant defender, a handy scorer who could score in quick bursts, and, just like his Celtic teammate in Jones, was crazy clutch. He could play the small forward spot, as well as either guard. No doubt one of the best all-round players ever.

This video sums up his clutchness, his popularity among fans and also his defensive skill.

Looking at future drafts has made my opinion change. Also, awesome names make a play here.

Played forever, won stuff, had a great peak of 23-13-3, will probably be a backup PF in my team.

You sure he's eligible? I deliberately didn't draft him because I didn't think he was eligible for this era...

Look at Wikipedia. He debuted in 1962.
