Fantasy Draft: Post-Jordan Era (1998-Present) - Draft Thread 

Post#1 » by Fadeaway_J » Tue Oct 18, 2016 2:00 am

WELCOME TO THE DRAFT!

Image

Draft Order:
Image

Snakebites and poopdamoop have agreed to switch places in the draft order.
Hawk Eye and damecurry have agreed to switch places in the draft order.
Hawk Eye and Laimbeer have agreed to switch places in the draft order.
OrlandoTill has replaced Laimbeer.

Rules

- Once the clock starts each manager will have a maximum of 3 hours to make their pick. If you fail to meet this deadline you go to the end of the order for that round. (NOTE: The clock stops at midnight to 8 AM EDT.)

- After you make your pick, please quote or PM the person after you in the order to let them know it's their turn.

- We are using a modified snake draft order: ABBAABBA

- All FGA and other relevant stats will be taken from basketball-reference.com

- If you don't think you'll be around when it's your pick, please PM a shortlist to myself, Hawk Eye, or Snakebites.

- Please post draft picks only in this thread. If you want to hype up your pick and/or quote the next person please do everything in one post. Another thread will be started for general discussion.

- Any player from the 1998-99 season to the 2015-16 season is eligible.

I'm not sure if this is really a rule, but I like the pictures so go ahead and post one along with your pick. 8-)

Good luck everyone!

Tim Duncan.

Most likely 2002-03, when he won a championship without any other all star level players on the team.

We may not win but we'll have a good time.

Dirk Nowitzki

Image
Comments to rationalize bad contracts -
1) It's less than the MLE
2) He can be traded later
3) It's only __% of the cap
4) The cap is going up
5) It's only __ years
6) He's a good mentor/locker room guy

Dwyane Wade

This game is no good if you keep drafting the same players over and over so I'll take Wade. Really warming up to his 06 season.

When someone of his talent falls this far it seems like there is no choice. Give me:

Kobe Bryant
2007-2008 season: 28.3 ppg; 6.3 rpg; 5.4 apg; 1.8 spg; 6.0 VORP; 5.4 BPM; .208 WS/48

I think I need a great shooter and low FGA guy to pair with TMac...give me John Stockton. He might be older but still led the league in ORTG in 99-00 although I might use 98-99.
