What is going on right now? LOL

Should I even bother to put Goran Dragic in the poll? He was an all-star replacement this year I think, so I kinda want to include him since all of the other all-stars have been put in the poll.

But meh, I still think there are better players on the board.

Fair question. Dipo and Lillard had been the next highest vote getters after Cousins and Kyrie. I know it's flawed logic to to automatically give them spots 14 and 15, but again, this time around, I'm valuing speed a lot more than I have in the past. I did check the people who voted for each person, and it did vary a little, especially with Lillard. Dipo made All-Star team, All-NBA, All-Defense, and was the league's steals leader this year. Not a bad pick right there.

Sorry for the confusion.

I guess I'll go with Dwight Howard next, followed by Tyreke Evans. Not sure where to go after that though.

I'm going Paul George. I think the down year was more about trying to integrate with Russ and Melo. Still one of the best 2 way players in the league.

Actually, I'll put Goran in first to make sure I got all of the All-Stars from this year. Then I'll go with Dwight, Tyreke, Jrue, and Marc Gasol.

I got Draymond over Horford please and thanks. But I'm not sure who to pick here. Gobert, Green, Jokic, KAT, George is pretty tight for me. 

You're going to be a much better team with Gobert as your best player than George. Legit just saw that. Idk this stuff is too hard.

I voted PG. It is amazing how playing in a bad situation lowers a man's stock.
