First of all both these tidbits show that we earned a lot of respect and appreciation with our run to the Finals AND with the additions afterwards. Not necessarily from media guys, but from some of the best players in the league, which counts much more in my opinion.

Concerning KD‘s Top 5 - I think he maneuvered himself in that spot by starting with Luka as his point guard and adding himself and LeBron. He then chose Embiid because he shoots the three better than Jokic and wanted the best shooter with size that he could imagine to stretch the floor and take advantage of all the open shots - and therefore came up with Klay as his forward. 

So he didn’t necessarily form a team of the 5 best individual players, but tried to build the most unbeatable team. I like that a lot, because we can transfer his chain of thoughts to our team with Klay next to Luka and Kyrie, can‘t we?

And, one thing KD has proven is that he knows how to assemble a championship team!
