2nd Annual Jazzfanz Jazz Fantasy Draft

I wanted Truck too to put alongside Eaton. That **** would have been fierce. I can totally live with Millsap's beatliness though.
 
I passed on Truck because he only spent 1 1/2 seasons with the jazz and in spite of his huge numbers in 77-78 he only shot 44% from the field(64% from line) on a sub .500 team
 
13- Honz - Carlos Boozer
14- Prodigy - Memo Okur
15- PKM - Truck Robinson
16- Calijazz - Andrei Kirilenko
17- Killa - Paul Millsap
18- Dwill_Gr8tness - Thurl Bailey
19- Ben10 - Spencer Heywood
20- David Stern - OTC
21- Mambo - OTC at 8 PM MST
22- KM32MVP
23- Pastramiking
24- Raspberry Delight
 
Per a pm, I'll now be announcing two picks:

With the 20th pick, I select:

Matt Harpring, G/F

In his prime, Harpring was an excellent 3rd scorer and never backed down from a challenge.

John Drew, G

I have an idea that I that could expand on this draft a little bit and give us a better idea of who formed the best team. I ran it by Stern and thought it was a good idea, so I thought I would propose it to you guys as well. I didn't participate in this draft last year, so I don't for sure, but I think people just voted on who was the best team, correct? Well, I just came across this cool website awhile back called, https://www.whatifsports.com/. It allows you to build a fantasy team based on a budget and players are assigned dollar values for each season they ever played and simulate results against other teams. For example, AK is worth about $7,000,000 for his 03-04 season and about $4,000,000 for his 06-07 season. It literally has every player that ever played for the Jazz, up until the 2008-2009 season (so Wes Mathews wouldn't be able to be picked). But basically my idea is that we transfer the picks from this draft and have that form a roster that we simulate against each other. People would have to choose just one season in which the players you picked played for the Jazz to use. But people would have to fit their roster under the salary cap (42 mil), so they may have to take a less valuable season from a player to fit under the salary cap if necessary (like me taking AK's $4,000,000 mil season instead of his $7,000,000 mil season). The rosters would to have 12 players, so we would need to add 2 rounds to the draft.

The website offers free private leagues that goes for about 10 games (a full season costs $10 per team). I believe you're allowed to be several free leagues (I'm not sure if there's a limit or not though), so hypothetically it could go longer than 10 games if people wanted. I think 6 teams could join per league, so there could be 2 separate leagues, if people are interested. I've used this website before a couple of time and it's quite good. Anyways, hopefully what I explained wasn't confusing. I can answer any questions you have, if you are interested. I think this could be a really cool way to see who has the best team.

1) So would we have to pay or not?
2) I may have selected Bailey instead of Millsap had I known about this.
3) I'd be willing to fork over $10 but only if we can use this multiple times. This would be tremendous for our All-Time NBA Draft we had last summer. Seriously. My interest is peaked right now.
4) I wanted Harpring with my next pick so **** you to whoever just took him. Seriously, imagine Harp, Millsap and Eaton at the 3-5. That ****'s gritty.

For a 10 game season with no playoffs it would be free. I think we could do multiple free leagues in a row though if people want. For an 82 game season with playoffs would cost $10.
 
I have to go with Blue Edwards. Why? Because his ghost is here and I don't want him to kill me.
