NBA 75 team predictions

From the latest podcast, here's the list of NBA at 75 predictions by draft class. Looking at 5-year periods since the beginning of the league, the breakdown is as follows:

• 1949-55: 5 (*Including Mikan in '49)
• 1956-60: 5
• 1961-65: 4
• 1966-70: 6
• 1971-75: 7
• 1976-80: 4
• 1981-85: 9
• 1986-90: 6
• 1991-95: 4
• 1996-00: 9
• 2001-05: 7
• 2006-10: 5
• 2011-15: 3
• 2015-20: 1

One of the reasons I think Carter (or perhaps McGrady) are on the bubble is because of how many players from that late '90s period are locks. I don't expect many voters (or any voters) to reach a quote by era, it's just harder to stand out across different criteria in a crowded era: There's only so many rings, so many All-NBA spots, etc. 

Indirectly, this might be why Wilkins didn't make the NBA at 50 team. Both the early '80s (McHale, Isiah, Drexler, Stockton, Barkley, Hakeem, Jordan) and late '90s (Garnett, Kobe, Nash, Iverson, Duncan, Dirk) have a ton of locks from those stacked draft classes.
