With their 8th rd pick, Team TBD selects:



Grand Admiral Thrawn, Fictional Character


In the Heir to the Empire Star Wars books, Grand Admiral Thrawn is the de facto head of the remnants of the Empire.  The greatest tactician in the galaxy, Thrawn studies the artwork of the species he faces to learn how best to defeat them, and nearly crushes the New Republic before it has even begun.  The ultimate team player, Thrawn is virtually egoless and seeks only to defeat his enemies in the most efficient manner possible.  He is a little too trusting of his bodyguards, though.  His main responsibilities for Team TBD will be tutoring Alexander the Great in air and space combat, grinding the other teams into dust, and closing out on the perimeter 3.

Cartoon Character: Voltron
Actor:
Government Leader: Alexander the Great
Athlete: Kevin Garnett
Villain: Brainiac
Fictional Character: Grand Admiral Thrawn
Scientist: Nikola Tesla
Super Hero: Batman
Musician:
Wild Card: Charlie Kelly/Green Man

Primarily on the strength of his role as Hope Davis' original dopey boyfriend in "Next Stop Wonderland". His basketball accumen was displayed in "Along Came Polly", but it's his girth & awkwardness that will take us deep in the playoffs.

Grand Admiral Thrawn, Fictional Character

The only Star Wars books I´ve ever read. I love this pick.

I don't hate the other teams in this draft, I pity the fools.

You´re just lucky that I didn´t pick him in the 5th, he was on my shortlist. But why Wild Card? He could also be an actor or an athlete.
In the summer of 2017, I predicted this team would not win a championship for the next 10 years.

3 down, 7 to go.

Have you ever tried to pigeonhole Mr. T? It doesn't end well for anyone. Except Mr. T.
