The seeding (alphabetical because I don't feel like figure out another way to seed) and this will be reseeding each round (so that I don't have to keep up with a bracket):

we got some tough ones in here, I went with: West, Bird, Bryant (I really wanted to vote for Stockton, but couldn't come up with any way to justify it), Russell, Robinson, Pettit, Miller, and Johnson

I know this is alphabetical, but its ironic that the 1v16 is the closest one IMO.

Baylor - just think he was all around a better athlete than West. Baylor could do it all and before his knee injury would have been considered top 5 all time. Dude averaged close to 40/20 a few times and career nearly 30/10.


Bird


Kobe


Russell


Irving


Pettit


Miller


Magic

All my votes were the chalk answer except Robinson. Funny how I can't stand the Spurs and yet Robinson was one of my favorite basketball players ever.
