Selection process for Alliance Partners in the Finals

We have three teams, A, B, & C.

Team A seeds 1st, Tean B seeds 3rd, and Team C seeds 6th.

Team A selects Team C. Team C declines because they have their own selection.

My question:

If Team B selects Team C, can Team C accept the selection?

No, they can't. By declining a draft, you automatically decline all other drafts. Team C, however, still has the right to draft. This is why it is pointless for a team to decline if they are not in a position to pick.
