    The age old thread....still FUN to think about it. If Morey was your GM and you're on the clock for the first pick in the All-Time Draft, who goes first and why?

    Kareem.

    The best season ever according to WS/48
    +60% from 2-point range on "contested" postups
    Harden-esque TS% without a 3 point line
    Extreme durability
    Athletic freak (bucks days)
    The All-Time Leading Scorer
    Would be the GOAT with a better nickname.

    James Harden easily. Most of the guys on that list are already pooping in big boy adult diapers.

    I'm so glad you didn't put KOBE on that list.

    my heart says Hakeem...
    but i gotta take MJ - he's the GOAT....
    tempted to go with Wilt... but not sure how he'd translate to todays game vs todays opposition...

    White Mamba is the only correct choice

    I play this game all the time with friends. Draft your all time starting 5. I ended up with Wilt, Hakeem, LeBron, Harden, and Stockton the other day. Drafted Hakeem first.

    Wilt was so dominant in his era that it’s too tempting not to try him out in a different time period

    Depends on the number of team drafting. There are loads of all time big man but only a few great SF/SG

    So either Dream or MJ. Heck I might even pick MJ first as most rated Wilt, Bill and Kareem over Shaq and Dream. I got a decent chance of picking Dream in the 2nd round.

    Didn’t Wilt lead the league in assists one year? I’m going with that guy.

    So far, ZERO votes for the only white guy on the list.

    Jerry Sloan falls in a faint.

    Didn't Charles Barkley select Iverson last time they did exercise on TNT?
