[@magron1987]

Met Jerry West 10 years ago when he was in vacation in Italy, asked him for a picture and told him that he was my father's favorite player. He brushed it off and said he wasn't even the best player in his team. Then he told me and my brother stories about Elgin Baylor and Wilt for 10 minutes. I coudn't believe the humbleness and the kindness. One of the very best players ever, and one of the very best GMs ever. And an even better human being.

@@your_fathers . On Wilt: he said that in all his years he had never seen a better athlete than Wilt. He said that he is the strongest player in any era and that no one could match up with him physically. He said that only Bill Russell could get in Wilt's head to take him out of the game. On Elgin Baylor: he said that Elgin was one of the purest scores ever. He compared him to George Gervin and KD, but that he played with intensity and fire like Kobe. He said that if you disrespected Elgin he would drop 50 on your head (his words). He said that if you gave Elgin what these players have today (trainers, nutritionists, chefs and shot gurus) he would have scored at least 40 a game. And then he just left, i had like 50 Kobe questions that i'll never get to ask. But he is the coolest.

I know that essentially this is just a mock draft, but drafting against Jerry West must have been so intimidating. He has played with, played against, or evaluated every single NBA player of the last 60+ years. His knowledge is insane. In Round 9 when Sue Bird asked about Dave Bing and Sam Jones, West knew Bing’s height from memory.
