FUTURE DRAFT GAMES - NEW THREAD 2/21/22

[Laimbeer]

I mean you can still build around LeBron or MJ but the players around them can't have 3 All-Star appearances or more.

I.e. infrequent all-stars plus one.

Oh, I didn't realize it was and-one. Thought it would be a refreshing to build teams without those elite players.

It wasn't to begin with, thought now maybe worth adding one MVP. But let's just go all-infrequent.

Agreed. Could have a no-MVP rule as you suggested. I like it!

[Laimbeer]

Unfrequent All Stars.

Only players with 2 All Star selections or less are eligible.

I'd prefer we keep it at two, as suggested.

[Fadeaway_J]

One-two punch draft next?

[Mascot]

so its been a while since I played GMAT, maybe 6-7 years im thinking. I did love it, but when we lost the option to void TERRIBLE trades it became too unrealistic for me; when one person could fleece someone with the first trade and then win the whole thing. I was thinking about maybe creating a GMAT game where we have 30 DIFFERENT players, it would be 12 weeks long, and you would be allowed one trade a week that was subject to approval from the other GMs, would really like to bring the realism back to it somehow if at all possible.

Sounds good to me

3-4-5 or zero all stars.

Modern era draft 2015-2022

What's the significance of 2015? Warriors' ascendance?

I think 2014 is a better cutoff

Yes, first Warriors title

[flaco]

I really like the strict restrictions in the last 2 drafts. Hope we run more games like these.

So starting 2014-15 then.

I'm fine with the tighter period but we might have to cap participants at 12.

My only problem is it's easier for games to be unbalanced draft position wise imo

[Fadeaway_J]

The Phil Jackson Draft: you can only use player seasons during which Phil Jackson coached a championship team (1991-93, 1996-98, 2000-02, 2009-10)
