**No Restrictions (1960-2017) DRAFT THREAD 

Post#1 » by wackbone » Tue Dec 19, 2017 10:06 pm

1. Subject to the rules to be set out below, players from the 1959-60 season to the 2016-17 season will be available to be drafted. You can draft players that came into the league before 1959-60 but the season you choose can't be before 1959-60.

2. You will be required to draft a total of 8 players. Each of your players must play a minimum of 8 minutes in your rotations.

3. Each player you select must have played at least 50% of regular season games in the season selected.

4. Your team will be allowed a combined total of 90.0 FGA corresponding with the specific seasons indicated for each player. There will be a .85 FGA multiplier for pre-merger seasons (1959-60 through 1975-76).

5. We will be doing a modified snake draft. It will go like this: ABBABABA

6. 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, 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 immediately.

7. The clock will be turned off between 12 midnight and 9 AM EDT.

8. Draft order will be completely randomized.

9. 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. It is a courtesy to quite the next person, not mandatory. The next person has 2 hours to make their selection from the minute you make yours, not 2 hours from when they were quoted.

10. There will be a 16 team playoff tournament to determine the winner.

Draft Order:

After MUCH deliberation, I'm going to go with the best PG available, and arguably the best player available.

Magic Johnson.

Never drafted this guy, always wanted to build around him.

Back to my roots. Taking a wing and a center with my first two picks just like the days of yore when I'd do that EVERY single time.

Love the options this gives me going forward.
