Hmmmm. I'm mildly worried about who is going to be available at 12, which really is more like 23.

I'm really intrigued by how this twist affects competitive balance. Like, I have LeBron which is great, but 44 players will go off the board before I make my second pick and another 22 before my third. At your spot you could build a superior team with two fringe MVP-level guys and a dynamite #3 option.

Yeah it could end up working out great being at the end of the order. Its hard to project how things are going to shake out beyond the first round or so.

I’ll be interested to see how much punting is a thing, or if people are content just thinning the board for themselves later

I think the bottom half is going to have to be really lucky...
Like I feel it’ll be a uphill battle...
I also wonder how FGA comes into this, I feel a few people’s depth will get destroyed in this game.
After your first, you change, you mature, you dont just jump into things.

I guess I'll give this one a shot, though I foresee it being a pretty frustrating experience.

Pretty sure I know my pick.
Not sure about the eliminate though.

Really wanted to ban someone else but with LeBron I think he needs to be in the game.
