[cheese]

Alright , who is gonna trade their top 15 pick to jmon?

PLEASE!

I'm trade friendly, but I don't think trading my first pick is allowed based on the OP.

 

[jag_player]

1.04 Chris Paul, PG, Clippers

I think you can swap positions for the entire draft if you want to.

 

[Notorious T.R.E.]

So far I've only heard Coyote5, Scoobus and Moops that are for a snake reversal in the 5th round to give a bump to those at the end of the first round. This is a last call for opinions on the subject. I'll make a decision after lunch today.

I'm in favor of helping me out.

 

[Notorious T.R.E.]

Moving it to:



4 hour clock for the first two rounds 9am to 7pm of the drafter's local time.

Please leave lists if you're not going to be around much. Or give me or someone your # and we'll text you. Let's keep this thing moving as best we can. TIA

 

[Goat Herders]

1.03 - "Team Ramrod" chooses - Kevin Love - PF/C - Minnesota Whiteguys

Really?

Sure. I didn't read the scoring rules so if there is some strange wrinkle where rebounds and points aren't worth much or we don't start forwards than I guess its a bad pick. But it was either him or CP3.

I'm just surprised because neither guy you mentioned strikes me as at all close to the third best player in basketball. But what do I know? People keep bringing up my 2nd round choice of Beasley last year, as well they should. More power to you.

Uh, ok.

 

[Juxtatarot]

I was hoping Kevin Love would fall here. My top 4 are off the board. I need a little time to figure out my pick now.

If it helps, tim's #3 player is still available.

Honestly doesn't matter to me all that much, could be in the 7th or 9th or 11th for all I care.

Amar'e Stoudemire? He's Jewish right?

1 pick should get back to back on the turn. It's a penalty to have the first pick any other way.

I missed the 5th round thing. Carry on.

 

[Juxtatarot]

1.05 Blake Griffin

I'm not crazy about this pick but I'm more worried about some of the other options.

Yeah, the 3rd rounder is just too much imo. The 5th could be a nice concession...pick your last starter first kind of thing.

 

[scoobus]

I already know who I want at #21, please don't snipe me guys.

I gave Love serious consideration at 1.2. dude is a beast.

For what it's worth, I PMed Arsenal to let him know he's next. Probably a good procedure for everyone to follow.

His offensive rebounding numbers will take a hit with Beasley gone

 

[timschochet]

I vote for a regular serpentine draft

A regular serpentine draft assumes, theoretically, that with the last pick of the 1st round and the 1st pick of round 2, I can match the talent of the first pick chosen .But the NBA just doesn't work that way. No matter who I pick at #24 and #25, there's no way I can equal LeBron James. I can't even come close. I am at a tremendous disadvantage, and so is everyone in this who drafts after the 10th pick or so. One of us could always get lucky if a new superstar emerges, but it's unlikely. This is really a grossly unfair competition when we move beyond the first 10 guys drafting. Anything that gives us bottom enders help should be considered, though none of it will help too much.

 

[Arsenal of Doom]

Unfortunately, dont expect a pick soon. I won't be in a position to look at anything until later in the day. Sorry.

Are we really trusting everyone to pony up $10 after the season? Just sayin.

 

[Notorious T.R.E.]

If we're short a few knobs some of us would run two teams I'm sure. Or Eephus could finally have his dream of running a team. We'll figure it out.

We didn't have a problem with it in baseball.

I'm going to get some tacos. I'll deliver a final verdict when I return.

can we agree that anyone who doesn't pony up $10 will be ridiculed for eternity?

exactly. when you signed up, did you believe it was a serpentine draft? now its not fair, so what changed? you rolled a 1000 and got the last pick. look, I don't care, I'm just busting your balls. if its that important to you, have at it. as long as you can accept the fact that you're crying 'grossly unfair' over a Basketball Simulation with no money on the line...

But baseball fans are in a higher class of people.

 

[Arsenal of Doom]

I don't want told things up when I'm 95% sure anyway.

Dwight Howard C

Please PM for me, thanks

 

[Arsenal of Doom]

Last season I won the baseball back to the future league, this year I'll be trying to stay out of the cellar. Both are fun challenges IMO.

If anyone drops during year I could probably pick up a team if it comes to that.

Says the dude with the 2nd pick... If you're worried about not getting your 5th starter til the end of round 5 I'll gladly switch places with you in draft order!

 

[Notorious T.R.E.]

***ANNOUNCE***

After the tacos have settled, and I've heard all of the arguments that anyone cares to make, I've decided to go ahead and do the flip in the 5th round.

So, after Arizona Ron selects last in 4th round, Timschochet will start the 5th round. We'll go regular serpentine from there on out.

I think it's a relatively minor change at that point, but it does give something back to those that didn't get a top pick. I've updated the google doc and if you could double-check my work, I'd appreciate it.

Does that mean Tim picks 1st or last in the 6th?

Oh boy. I have him last in the 6th. Essentially, I have it like we stuck a reverse round in the middle of our regularly scheduled program. Does that sound right to everyone?

 

[Yo Mama]

Yo Mama selects:

Russell Westbrook, PG/SG (yeah, I could go there)

Was hoping for Howard

Can someone pm Sparty since I'm on my phone?
