Draft Rules:

1. All NBA seasons from 1999-00 to 2008-09 are eligible, subject to the restrictions outlined below.

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.

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. Pre-merger seasons (1969-70 to 1975-76) are multiplied by 0.85 to account for pace, with closest 0.1 rounding. 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.

5. No specific restrictions beyond the timeframe and other restrictions mentioned in the other bullets.

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 rankings, playoffs, or hybrid (depending on numbers).

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 begin.

This appears straight-forward and the meta should be different than it usually is for this board.

I will give this one a whirl since the deadball era is one of my favorite era's.

In!

In.

Prediction: one of the guys in the title picture will go undrafted. Zero points for guessing which.

It's a fairly interesting pool, as it catches the early years of many 2010s icons while also having some 90s holdovers.

Got to 10 quickly. I think I'll cap it at 11 participants, more than that is probably pushing it.

I mean, 10 is a nice round number...

Usually, the more the merrier... Do you think 11 is too much for the pool? I was on the fence with it

No. I just get a little twitchy with odd numbers.

I haven't sat down and counted the stars in this pool so I can't comment on its depth relative to 10 vs 11 drafters. 1 drafter rarely makes a big difference.

Don't mind me.

Perfect. That's 11. That settles that.

I think 11 has its own elegance - it’s prime, palindromic, the only two-digit one of its kind, and its first 9 multiples are palindromes too. Hard not to call that a beautiful number.

Also, creates a nice lineup of 11-jersey: Isiah Thomas, Klay Thompson, Detlef Schrempf, Bob McAdoo, Yao Ming, with Kyrie Irving as sixth man.
