^^^^^^^^ The 75.0 FGA Draft (90s to now) - Draft Thread

Draft Order:

Draft Rules:

1. Subject to the rules to be set out below, players from the 1989-90 season to the 2016-17 season will be available to be drafted. You can draft players that came into the league before 1989 but the season you choose can't be before 1989-90.

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. The winner of the draft will be determined by playoffs/rankings/hybrid (to be determined).

5. You must state the specific season of the player you choose to draft. You don't have to do it right away when you make your selection but you must state it on your team roster page before the playoffs begin.

6. Your team will be allowed a combined total of 75.0 FGA corresponding with the specific seasons indicated for each player.

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

8. 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 myself or 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.

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

10. Draft order will be completely randomised.

11. 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.

Good luck everyone.

I feel odd taking him this high after I specifically said how strange I thought the pick was in the other draft, but can't turn down all he offers at 16.5 fga...

I’ve debated what to do here. I’m ultimately going to take potentially the best 2-way PG in the draft.

Dwight Howard. Elite two way play for cheap sounds good to me.

This may be a reach, but a good value at a scarce position and a proven combo to boot.
