Let me go ahead and explain my picks:
Monarch:
Elvis "the King" Presley.
The one and only monarch *anyone* can live with. Heck, google "the King" and he'll be on top, I assure you!
As a basketball player, Elvis' shimmy will shake off any opponent, plus he's the one true person that can claim the "King" title back from LBJ. TRUST IN EVLIS!
Author:
Jeff Clark.
Obviously, apart from being a great author, he writes DAILY, about the only topic anyone ever needs to read about. Plus he paid me to put him up there.
As a basketball player, I guess he's going to be the head coach. He knows the ins and outs of anyone, and is not afraid to give his opinion.
Comic Strip Character:
Inspector Gadget.
I don't think there's anyone who doesn't know gadget inspector Gadget. He's obviously one of the most clueless, characters, yet
still always gets the job done.
As a basketball player, there is the gadget copter for your freethrow-line dunks, but more importantly: mix the ending to "Space Jam" with "Go go gadget arms" and you know why I want him on my side.
Celtic:
Tom Thibodeau.
Obviously, stifling defense is his trademark, and that's something big. He was a vital cog in the machine that brought us banner #17, and therefor he's one of my favorite Celtics of all time.
My main squad up until now is 100% offensively minded. Tom is here to get them focussed on the D. Telling Gadget to use his hands for steals, Elvis to "for fools sake please stand still for once" when he takes a charge and to tell David Hasselhoff to hustle his hiney off.
80's TV character:
Mitch Buchannon. (David Hasselhoff in Baywatch)

...ugh. I hate posting this picture.
In the late 80's there was only one show that every boy really *had* to see whenever it was on. And on the beach, in between the prancing playboy bunnies, was the one guy we all envied and hated for it; Mitch Buchannon.
You *know* you want that guy that everyone hates on *your* side, not the opponents. That's why I want Mitch on my side, flopping and side-show-bobbing with that big white-man-afro of his.
Wild Card:
John McEnroe.
Look. I'm a Celtic fan. We're known for vocally murdering the opposing team. That's why I'm going to stick with our thing: trashtalk. Also, he'll fit in with the "veteran" team we have nowadays!
As a basketball player, it doesn't really matter what he does. He'll talk every opponent into the ground, make even a possible KG cry to his momma... only to be told that "his momma so fat..."
