This seems nice, would I necessarily need a yahoo account to join?

Nevermind, I thought it would be like a fantasy league draft or something like that :lol:

I'm mostly on when you and the guys are sleeping and viceversa.....it will only delay the draft process

Will be following the procedures though

Same here, and I'm going on a couple of trips that would delay the process. Sorry to say, but I'm going to have to be a spectator this time.

Looking forward to seeing some nice looking teams though, and this is always a fun way to pass time during the summer. I've done several of these on the PC board a few years ago, and I would recommend people to give it a shot. It's a great way to learn even more Lakers/basketball history!

Also, I'd recommend to consider using a A-B-B-A type draft format, especially in a draft this top heavy. A-B-A-B format will make it really difficult for the bottom picks to do any kind of damage.

Can you elaborate tkb on what that is?

example:

Round 1 (A):

1st pick: Earl
2nd pick: dock
3rd pick: tkb
4th: tycobb

Round 2: (B)

1st pick: tycobb
2nd pick: tkb
3rd pick: dock
4th: Earl

Round 3: (B)

1st pick: tycobb
2nd pick: tkb
3rd pick: dock
4th pick: Earl

Round 4 (A)

1st pick: Earl
2nd pick: dock
3rd pick: tkb
4th pick: tycobb

the idea is that because the people picking earlier in round 1 will have such a huge advantage when grabbing one of the elite superstars, its better to give those picking later in round 1 a little help by letting them pick early in round 2 and 3.

I was planning on doing that. I call it a snake Draft.
Never knew it was called that.

Okay you're in.

We have 10 players.
If we dont get to 20, i might have to tweak the rules to make it more difficult.
