Declining %s (Stars only) - Draft thread 

Post#1 » by Dr Positivity » Sat Feb 17, 2018 9:03 pm

Draft rules:

1. Subject to the rules to be set out below, players from the 1989-1990 season and 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 1989-1990

2. For players who made made 1st or 2nd team All-NBA at some point in their career, their FGAs will be subject to this multiplication by round:

1 180%
2 160%
3 140%
4 120 %
5 100 %
6 80 %
7 60 %
8 40 %

For everyone else (accolades no higher than 3rd team All-NBA or All-star), their FGAs will be multiplied by 100%.

3. 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.

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

5. Your team will be allowed a combined total of 90.0 FGA corresponding with the specific seasons indicated for each player.

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

7. 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.

8. The clock will be turned off between 12 midnight and 9 AM EDT. The clock will begin on Sunday, February 18th at 9 AM ET unless a full round has been completed.

9. Draft order will be completely randomised.

10. 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.

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

Team Roster Page Rules:

1. You will be responsible for creating a roster page for your fantasy team. Here are the things that you will be required to include on your roster page:

. Players
. Rotations
. Draft selections
. The most important of all, you must show the total FGA per player on your roster AND a total sum of each players FGA to display that it is under the required 90.0 FGA

-All of the above must be completed before playoffs begin.

Please keep track of picks here:

I dont love any of the "non-stars" on the board so its between 2 stars for me. Im gonna go with the better and slightly more expensive option.

Give me Kevin Garnett.
