Rebounds Draft : Discussion

[Snakebites]

I'm just saying, my offense would be an absolute nightmare to face. Nash/Klay/Giannis/Dirk is terrifying.

LOL this format is totally a bust if its possible to do that.

Yeah, it kind of reminds me of when I managed to get Magic and Walton together in that game where you were only allowed 1 guy who's been on multiple All NBA First teams.

I cruised through the playoffs and never got more than one vote against me.

Sometimes a strange format coughs up a superteam through a combination of foresight and luck. He's got the makings of a decent bench with Beverly and Camby too.

I asked for it by going fun with the first pick but this is a rough draft. Some of you are going to walk all over me. I might as well just start Love/Kemp at this point, at least it’s killer offense.

Wondering why you went with Eaton/Love instead of a better center and a value rebound guy?

I need a center like Eaton’s 5 FGA for 10 reb+ or else I was screwed rebound wise. A 10/10ish guy means I would have needed something like 22 rebounds on 17.5 FGA.

Love may not have had the best FGA/rebound ratio but he did it over more rebounds while using one big man position. Ed Davis and Eaton would have left me about 19 FGA for 13 rebound which I don’t consider that great for already having drafted a backup big and not having any strong players on my bench yet.

A top team but not a clear first, imo. A defense featuring an Unseld and Dirk interior with Nash at the point is suspect in the context of these games.

I will say it's like he had two mid to low firsts plus a second to come away with Giannis, Dirk, and Nash.

Up

With the one hour clock, shouldn't BarbaGrizz be up? Doesn't look like Dr P was ever tagged though, so I see the confusion

[wackbone]

If you want to get reallll technical

BarbaGrizz picked at 1:26 pm.
Jon's clock expired at 2:26 pm.
Dr P's clock expired at 3:26 pm.
Dr P's 8th round pick is skipped.
Jon's 8th round pick is skipped.
BarbaGrizz's clock expired at 4:26 pm.
getrich's 8th round pick is skipped.
Laimbeer is up and has until 5:26 to pick.

Disagree, I'm online here waiting 50 more minutes to make pick. I can do it right now, but I don't think is my turn yet

EDIT: ok, just re-read the rules, you're right.

[parsnips33]

Something about having 9+ picks skipped feels weird. Is this because of the 1 hour clock?

[Laimbeer]

Didn't realize Detlef had a 6MOY season with a 11.6/9.6 split until poking around just before my last pick.

I believe you are up now.

I thought Bird was a justifiable number one pick.

Looks like SHAQ and Hornetsfan have gone awol and we may have a couple of first round byes.

I thought it would be a bigger advantage than it was to get a rebounder who could shoot, while everyone else who drafted slasher and post players in the first round would have to make fit picks around them.

[BarbaGrizz]

I was surprised that Fat Lever and his 9.3 rpg in 88/89 and 89/90 lasted until the 5th round

[MadNESS]

When does Blazer50 pick? 43 minutes?

Yup. 31 minutes left for SHAQ.

I am ready when the times up - I have PM's Shaq a couple of times this morning

Up Blazer50

I have some things going on, I'll be around I can. when I can.

It's very hard to believe your intentions are good in the latest drafts.

In the previous draft, 200th fga, you get 2nd pick, you don't get MJ, made an absurd pick with Christie. Didn't stick around to make any picks. We assign your team to someone on the waiting list, and suddenly you were back with real life issues.
In the draft before that, you were actively boycotting writeups.

Now, in a rebound per game draft, you drafted a team with Capela + bunch of wings. It's mathematically impossible for you to match the set 65 rpg min and 88 fga max criterias.
And real life again?
So convenient.

Your actions are not going to change anything you're disturbed about. What you're doing has no upside but all downside.

[wackbone]

ardee is up now, right?

I'm actually so lost with who's turn it is

[Snakebites]

...did someone really try to take Rodman in round 8?
