Redeem Team Draft (2008 and on) - Discussion

[durantbird]

Draft Rules:

1. All NBA seasons from 2007-08 to 2024-25* are eligible, subject to the restrictions outlined below.

*2024-25 numbers are still being finalized and should be available by the time we end the draft, or even when we start it. You'll use the final FGAs for this season.

2. You will be required to draft a total of 8 players in 8 rounds. Each of your players must play a minimum of 8 minutes in your rotations. Any player chosen in a season that is pre-merger will have a multiplier of 0.85 applied against their actual fga, rounded to closest 0.1.

3. Your team will be allowed a combined total of 88.0 FGA with a minimum of 3.0 FGA per player corresponding with the specific seasons indicated for each player. NOTE: You may pick a player whose actual FGA number was lower than 3.0, but you still be charged 3.0 for that player.

4. Each player you select must have played at least 50% of regular season games in the season selected. He needs to play at least 50% of his games for an eligible franchise.

5. You may pick any player who played at least 50% of his games in the chosen season for any of the franchises:
Jazz
Mavericks
Heat
Cavaliers
Bucks
Lakers
Magic
Raptors
Pelicans
Pistons
Nuggets

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

7. 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 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.

8. The clock will be turned off between 12 midnight and 9 AM EDT.

9. Draft order will be completely randomized.

10. 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.

11. The winner of the draft will be determined by polls. AI will be used as a single vote when a matchup is tied and stuck.

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
. Draft selections
. The most important of all, you must show the total FGA per player on your roster AND a total sum of each players FGA to display that it is under the required 88.0 FGA

-All of the above must be completed before playoffs/rankings

ok

[Fadeaway_J]

In, was considering running this myself but my time is limited during the week these days.

Could we not just include 2024-25 at this point?

[wackbone]

Yep

Interesting question. I thought about it but how do we deal with the FGA still being finalized? Maybe round it to closest integer? If we do it, it's highly unlikely the numbers change during the draft. *EDIT: still problematic, because of the cases that can change numbers as they are around 0.5

*EDIT 2: maybe if the actual price for the player is not yet known but only estimated and we count on building our roster pages when the final numbers are official

You'll know the exact numbers by Monday, and they probably won't change much from Sunday if at all. I don't see it as an issue. (That's assuming we even start before Monday.)

Included. Will probably make Mobley more attractive and Cade as well.
