I was still on the fence, and I just got back home. Guess it's too late either way. Congratulations, Snake. Pau Gasol, the big man, proved to be the MVP the entire competition.

other than the voting in the semifinals, i thought this was a very successful BaNT contest. the draft went by in an incredibly efficient manner. writes up for the most part all present. good job everyone. cant' wait for cellar's next game.

I'm thinking an ATL (All Time League)

If that's your style too and you've been active, shoot me an email, I'm probably running this one invite only. Getting a little annoyed with non-participation.

(the offer to email goes for any of you..)

What does that mean exactly?

I was going to ask the same.
How exactly does an All Time League work?
Is there a draft?
Is it head to head matchups again?
Is there trading?
Etc.

1) It will be 16 teams. The tournament format will be very similar if not identical to the other in terms of how its set up. We may end up having judges for it as opposed to general voting. Not sure yet.

2) Yes there is a draft. It will probably be a modified snake (ABBA as opposed to ABAB) to make up for the slight advantage to top picks have.

3) Its like build a team, but you choose from all players in NBA history. This particular one will likely require you to select players from at least a few different decades.

4) Re: Trading. Sometimes there is, sometimes not.

I'm currently in the process of moving house so for the next week or so I might be without constant internet access. I'd be interested, but it would depend on when it's kicking off.

Will ABA players be used in this?

When I discussed this with Cellar he said ABA numbers and such would be admissible. As always, though, it will be up to those who draft them to determine how to evaluate and defend that.
