Seems like there is a decent advantage for guys with top ten picks in the first round & I was thinking the same thing about making a minor adjustment in the draft order. IMO ABBBA is too much of an advantage for the late teams, but ABBAB would even things out a bit, otherwise the early teams get to pick first in three of the first five rounds, including the all-important first round.

If anybody is here, that picks after Cellar, and potentially may not be there tomorrow, lists being sent into All In the Name would real beneficial for speeding this up, and catching up on the lost time.

Do we have an e-mail list so people can be notified if they're on the clock or holding things up?

I'm at brandon07@ymail.com

At some point should we just give Cellar BPA OR let Gremz pick for him? I'd be wary with giving him BPA since it isn't obvious and this is the most important pick of the game usually..

What does everyone think of the picks so far? I think it's pretty much gone as expected, but things should really get interesting at this point.

I'm happy to get Shaq (again), but there were at least four other guys I was strongly considering.

Remember, don't name players who haven't been drafted yet.

LOTS of big men going high and I wouldn't be surprised to have a predictable next two picks, but after that it's so wide open.

I was curious about the first three picks in this draft as well, thought they could have gone in any order with the same three guys.

It's always fascinating to see how a GM builds around MJ. Good luck SamBone!

Yeah, I'm real interested to see who goes next, the one year peak, and era considerations puts a fun twist on things. I think all the picks so far, have been pretty justified, and somewhat expected.

I have decided next time Im the commish I will require cellphone #s for all GMs. Its just crazy to think in a world with instant communication that we cant do these drafts in less than 2 weeks.

Checking in ......... should be interesting

All In The Name · Post #35 » by **All In The Name** » Mon Feb 1, 2010 3:34 am

Yep, it's gotten interesting. Magic is the steal of the draft so far IMO (a common theme in my 2 ATLs).

Hey, Bruh_Man, I obviously don't know your schedule tomorrow, but, if you think you might be gone for awhile, you can send a list to the following e-mail address:

allinthename2@yahoo.com

That obviously goes for everyone else, as well.

Warspite · Post #37 » by **Warspite** » Mon Feb 1, 2010 7:09 am

Magic is a steal but I think theres going to be another huge 1st rd coup with a 1 yr peak a guy who rarely gets respect is a top ten alltime player.

Im also around during weekdays to recieve lists and to give any advice you need.

Snakebites is the early leader. Getting 2 1st rd players is a huge coup but no doubt its early. Also shocking is only 1 PG in 20 picks. I am betting a run on PGs and adding PFs in Rd 2. I dont see any SGs and only 1 SF for the rd.

BlackIce · Post #39 » by **BlackIce** » Tue Feb 2, 2010 1:17 am

Magic and Oscar makes two pgs. I see Gimore just went, being paired with Duncan. Was giving Gilmore a lot of consideration the 2nd. Interesting to see the order that pg's go..

Sabas made a ballsy move with two wing guys, same with Snake taking Walton.

Regardless of whether or not we have peer judging, there will be some outside judges who also weigh in. But what does everyone think about peer judging? Good idea? Or should we scrap it?
