2020 Annual All-Time NBA Draft

[Beer]

Wilt would be a much better version of Rudy.

Similar wingspan, 20" higher vertical jump and a much more fluid athlete. Dude would dominate today's game.

do we have any real #'s on this? I fully believe he was 7' 250. Not sure he has a 7'7" wingspan or 40" vertical. Certainly possible but I'm wary of eyewitness accounts or memories. I think he makes the best case of being able to play against any generation of the old timers though.

Welp I guess @gandalfe is in bed. I think he lives in Turkey if I recall.

You say that every draft.

I'm in Oregon.

Anyway, I need to take another look at my team and think for a bit before I pick. Also, I'm open for trades if anyone wants to make me an offer.

Kind of proves my point. He's playing 48 min a game vs these scrub asses. His stats are impossibly skewed. But yes, he is obviously a gigantic freak. Wish they would have kept track of blocks back then. He probably average 10 blocks a game too.

I would’ve loved to

lmao. That’s just stupid ridiculous. Makes me wonder how he didn’t win more than one championship.

Jrue Holiday

One of the best two way pg’s playing today. Has the ability to shut opposing pg’s down. He’s also a two time all defender. His role on the team is obvious, to create havoc and shut down the hot hand will play pg and sg, whatever the matchup calls for.

Since we're approaching the tournament, I want to throw out an idea for matches that result in a tie; we've never had a great solution for this.

In the event of a tie, the team who started with the lower pick will advance to the next round. For instance, I picked 7th and @White Chocolate picked 8th--so if we were to tie, WC would win. @David Hume would own the tie breaker against no one, and @gandalfe would own the tie breaker against everyone.

This gives us a logical, no ******** solution. I think it also helps even the playing field for those with lower picks.

Let me know if you hate this idea. If I don't get a lot of complaints, this will be the method we use.

In the past the tie breaker has been whoever had more participant votes.

Yes, but that can result in another tie. This method would obviously not have that as a possibility.

I have no objections.

Just so we are clear, I have no objections to Spycam1’s proposal.

As the putative owner of all tiebreakers, I concur.

 

[spycam1]

Ties are rare; we probably won't have one. But it makes sense to have a good tie breaker established before we get started.

I like it. Simple, but fair. And that’s coming from someone who will lose the tiebreaker to most everyone else. I have no objections to using it.

@silesian is OTC.

@Ron Mexico is on deck.

A few things to be aware of:

- We'll likely finish the draft tomorrow.

- I'll randomly determine the playoff bracket after that. I'll then give everyone about 24 hours to send me their write-ups and rosters, so plan on round 1 starting around 10 PM MST on Friday, May 22. More official updates to come.

- You don't have to do a write-up, but you should at least send me your lineup; if you don't, I'll end up listing your team how I assume you want it, but it may not be exactly as you intended. It does you no good to not send me a lineup.

- Once the draft is finished, you have until the first match of Round 1 starts to complete any additional trades.
