2017 Nets Build a Team Game Update Your Depth Chart if Want Any Changes for Next Round of Voting

I thought it'd be fun to have a build a team playoff since the Nets aren't in the playoffs themselves.

Here's how it'll work, as I'm thinking of keeping this small. The draft will be snake order, actual order to be decided when I see how many want to play. There will be a draft thread and a roster thread. Only post your draft pick in the draft thread, and keep updating their team post in the respective thread once this gets started. If you draft a new player, make sure to update your roster in the roster thread.

Once we see how many people want to play, more rules will follow. I'm hoping for either 8 or 16 people so we can have a playoff-like bracket.

So, who wants to play? Post what team you want to be if you're down to play.

East
1) Jersey Generals
2) NyCeEvO
3) jbeachboy
4) Papi_Swav
5) vincecarter4Pres
6) TheSparkleKing

West
1) Shakendfries
2) DarkXaero
3) Claud
4) 3pt_chucker
5) Packers+NetsWIN
6) CalamityX12


There will be four threads: A general chat thread, a draft thread, the team thread, and the voting thread. Keep any conversation or questions to the general chat thread so the other threads are easy to read.

Rules: The playoffs are going to the top 8 teams after the draft and the trade/free agency period. The top 8 will be chosen via poll, with the top 8 vote-getting teams moving onto the playoffs. Teams will be seeded by how many votes each team gets. This will start Friday, May 12 sometime in the afternoon.

Draft: It’ll be a snake draft of 12 rounds since there are only 12 teams. Let’s try to move it along, if you know you’re going to be up but won’t be able to respond, send me a list of players you want drafted and I’ll draft them for you. You will only have 48 hours to draft, if you do not draft, you will be skipped.

Trades: You are allowed to trade, up to the playoffs. Once the playoffs start, however, all teams are final.

Your duties: In the teams thread, you are to put your depth chart, rotations, and a brief paragraph on what you want your team to be and how you would coach them. This is basically your way of trying to get people to vote for your team, so put some effort into it. I will also be copying and pasting this section of your team in the matchup/voting thread so make sure you say everything you want people to know about your team.

That’s it for now, any questions feel free to post them here and I’ll answer. If anything unforeseen happens, we’ll discuss it as it comes up. I plan to have the playoffs start in three weeks, with the champion crowned before game 7 of the finals in June, but I'm hoping we can move it quicker than that.

Don't worry, I'll give you both a rundown when the spots are filled. I'm going to keep it simple, so it won't be too confusing for any first timers.

I'm coming for the crown this time! I forget, did I lose to you in the Finals when NetsForce ran it, JG?

Jeff should jump in this.

I'll sign up. Although I was hoping the roster would be more than starting 5 + sixth man.

Thanks for reminding me of that tremendous failure. Losing to you. Ugh. :lol:

That's subject to change, I basically just wanted to say it's not going to be a drawn out process that will fade away. I'm open to 10 spots, 12, just something that is going to be able to be completed, really.

And with that, we have 8. I am going to keep sign ups open for another day, see if we can get another 8 spots to have 16, a true playoff. If not, then I'll start it up with 8.

If we do not get another five payers for this via the Nets board by tomorrow, I am going to go to the Timberwolves and see if any of them want to play. I was hoping for all Nets fans, so if you want to play, sign up.

I was hoping Jeff would come on before I opened it up to the Wolves, but this will be the last night for Nets fans before I see if we can fill up the rest of the spots with other fans.

If you have a friend from another team that would want to play, feel free to tell them about it.
