Draft rules:

1. Subject to the rules to be set out below, players from the 1999-00 to 2023-24 seasons will be available to be drafted. You can draft players that came into the league before 1999, but the season you choose can't be before 1999-00.

2. You will be required to draft a total of 8 players. Each of your players must play a minimum of 8 minutes in your rotations.

3. For the purposes of the game, we have 8 distinct FGA slots. You are allowed to select one player per FGA slot.

0-3 FGA's
3.1-6 FGA's
6.1-8 FGA's
8.1-10 FGA's
10.1-14 FGA's
14.1-17 FGA's
17.1-20 FGA's
20.1-plus FGA's

We do not have a total FGA cap. The 88 FGA cap is replaced by 8 separate caps.

4. Each player you select must have played at least 50% of regular season games in the season selected.

5. We will be doing a modified snake draft. It will go like this: ABBABABA

6. Players will get a maximum of a 2-hour window to make their selection when they are on the clock. If you still have not chosen a player by then, or if the player you have chosen is ineligible, you will be skipped. Also, if you know ahead of time that you won't be available to make your pick on the clock then please PM your selection to myself or another participant. NOTE: If you miss one pick and have failed to make it by the time your next pick comes around, you will be skipped.

7. The clock starts on Friday at 9 AM EDT or when the first round is complete, whichever comes first. It will be turned off between 12 midnight and 9 AM EDT.

8. Draft order will be completely randomized.

9. After you have made your draft selection, please quote and/or PM the person that goes after you so they will know that it is their turn and they are on the clock. You may not change your pick after it has been made, even if the next person in the order has not picked yet. Please note that the clock starts whenever the previous drafter has either made their pick or their two-hour window has expired, even if the next person is not quoted.

10. The winner of the draft will be determined by playoffs. The Finals thread will be posted in the ''Player Comparisons'' board. All forum members will be allowed to cast their vote. First team to 5 votes wins the Finals.

Team Roster Page Rules:

You will be responsible for creating a roster page for your fantasy team. Here are the things that you will be required to include on your roster page:

. Players
. Rotations
. FGA per player on your roster

-All of the above must be completed before playoffs begin.

Part of me wanted to get cute and try to play the draft a bit, but I think I have to stick to the obvious pick.

Steve Nash

"His run in Phoenix was unbelievable, man," said James. "The way he played the game of basketball, I wish I could have been a teammate of his for a year or two. Being around a guy like that who is just all about team. He never asked for anything and everything was given to him. You can respect somebody like that."
