    Looks like the idea was always to give the choice to Kenny to give out one spot for each side.

    Looks like Parsons was snubbed again though.

    I believe so. Wall was taken really late.

    Lin, Rubio, Blake, Monroe & Fields is a legitimate starting 5.

    You think Shaq's drafts are funny, but reality is stranger than fiction!

    Look at GM Kahn's draft for the T-pups for the last 3 years. LOL

    Since this game is pretty much streetball, I think Shaq Squad will win. Blake Griffin will have 20 dunks and win the MVP.

    you can watch the draft in the link. Chuck did good considering getting 2nd pick in every round. Shaq could of had a dominate team, He could of had Griffin and either or Ivring or Wall. Chuck picked Ivring so he could of had Wall or even Cousins but instead choice Lin and Rubio back to back, which are flashy picks and they'll put on a show in the half of the game but when its time to win Chuck's team has more balance and I think will win.

    Shaq is the better GM, but the players might like playing for Chuck more (this is, after all, an exhibition game where effort is not a sure thing). Sorta like Morey versus Carroll Dawson.

    Team Chuck has only two front court players, splitter and cousins, the rest are tweeners.

    Team Shaq owns chuck's team.
