I say L. Kizzle because not only does he have good knowledge about basketball and the NBA but he also has tremendous knowledge of the history of the game like the 50s and 60s which is a rare trait. Plus, he already made his picks so he is a step ahead to get this round done.

Re: All-Time NBA Players' Peaks Draft
iamgine
PG Magic Johnson / Sidney Moncrief
SG Dominique Wilkins / Michael Cooper
SF Dennis Rodman / Chris Mullin
PF David Robinson / Ralph Sampson
C Patrick Ewing / Wes Unseld
VS
NuggetsFan
PG: Kidd\ I.Thomas
SG: Wade\ G.Rice
SF: Havlicek\Worthy
PF: B. Wallace\McAdoo
C: Russell\Sabonis
iamgine takes this one for me. First off, their front courts. I genuinely think iamgine's would destroy NuggetFan's. Firstly, Robinson and Ewing were both great defenders - but what exactly are they defending? Wallace and Russell have no game, McAdoo is a threat sure, but Sabonis of the NBA was far from the Sabonis that was revered in Europe. Combine that with the fact that a lot of NuggetsFan's scorers are rim attackers? It's going to be a rough day for Wade I'm afraid. Hondo is an amazing player as well but he's got Rodman guarding him - it's going to be tough to find baskets.
I know that defense wins championships but NuggetsFan's starters for the most part literally cannot score. I can't exactly say how Russell's game would translate to playing the big boys of the 90's, but I'd say if undersized Wallace can shut them down, Russell should translate just fine. I'd be extremely curious to who would get the most rebounds in this match up.
On the flip side, NuggetsFan's outside scorers are on his bench but amusingly enough so are iamgine's best perimeter defenders - Isiah's going to get his for sure, but he's got the same scary front court to go up against and Moncrief and Cooper are some of the best defenders of their time - it's going to be rough.
This is going to be a pretty low scoring game but in the end, iamgine just straight up has too much firepower especially considering they have Magic facilitating. Kidd is a great facilitator in his own right but he's a big PG - one of the biggest weaknesses of Magic was being unable to guard speedy little guys like Isiah (who's off the bench) so as far as match ups go, one of the bigger weaknesses aren't exploited.

NuggetsFan/Iamgine is the hardest matchup to decide on.
Yes, he did vote. I will PM L. Kizzle and see if he's interested in judging in future rounds, if he is... we will move to the 2nd round once Snoop_Cat is done judging.

We should considering have 5 judges instead but I would wonder who the 5th one would be.
