2014 *Current Players* NBA Fantasy Draft

I will entertain trades for the 1st pick, but I'm looking to get a top-5 pick back. If no trades are made I will pick in the next 15-20 minutes.
 
What are the thoughts on having teams pick a coach as well? This was discussed in the All-Time players draft, but is more relevant here. Teams and strategies vary greatly by the quality and type of coach running the show. I personally think that it should be 11 rounds - 10 players and a current NBA coaching staff, but that's just my opinion. Wanted to throw it out there before we get things rolling.

I made a similar post before the all time players draft started. But was shot down. I'm all for it.

I would suggest do the draft, then start a separate one round draft for a coach and re-randomize it again. Thoughts?

I find drafting coaches...Lame. Makes write-ups needless. Lets just draft 10 players.

I like this. Good suggestion.
 
Exactly how does it make the writeup meaningless?

Well. If you pick Jerry Sloan, you know how your team is going to play therefore you don't need establish a philosophy or a style of basketball your team wants to play. You will just need to put some stats for the players.
 
Just completed a trade with Ellis269.

1 & 57 for 4 & 25.

My updated picks: 4, 25, 28, 29, 56, 84, 85, 112.
 
So how the hell do we make 14 work? Will the extra two get ousted in the poll where the teams that get byes because they have the lowest votes?
 
My preference.

1. 10 rounds with 9 players and a current coach (unemployed coaches too)
2. 10 rounds with 10 players

And I like this. Snake-order doesn't compensate the people at the end of the first and last rounds adequately. This would help. If we do coaches, though, the rule needs to be that they're at least still alive.

I kinda like it too. It would be interesting to at least try doing coaches and see how it goes, and I think this would be a good way to do it.
