You all know the drill. NBA ReDraft, only this time, thanks to @dland24, we have a new approach, the entire history of the NBA is open. Any player, any era, from 1958 to 2015, is available. 12 players per team, 30 teams, 360 total picks will be made.
All 30 owners have already been selected. (list to follow)
I don’t have the time or the energy to fight with everyone, so please, in the interest of team building, do not try and draft 5 Centers, and list Shaq as your PG, or something like that. I don’t wanna see Kobe as your Power Forward. Keep it as real as possible, and build your team as close to “true” as you possibly can. I can understand swings between the 2/3, or even the occasional 4/5, or maybe a 1/2, but I don’t want PG slash PF for the same player. Not even LeBron.
I will try and get a full list of owners, and all the ways to connect with the 30 owners to make each pick take place quicker. There is no reason for the late rounds to drag, as we could still be drafting HOFers and All NBA type players in rounds 10-11-12. So picks should go quicker than what we’ve run into during previous redrafts.
If I do not have your Twitter handle, or email address, or even a phone number for me to text you with, please PM me or reach out to me on Twitter what have you so I can get that info. We all need to be able to get a hold of you at a given time. If I get thrown in jail for walkin down the street next week, other owners should be able to help keep everyone pickin by @’ing you, or emailing, etc. (Phone numbers will be kept more private tho, I don’t want anyone to feel like I’m throwin their whole lives around the web )
Further info will follow in additional posts I have saved up here on Page 1. I will drop the draft order momentarily in 5 person increments. Clock will be 2 hours, off on the weekends, but you’re of course able to still make picks if you are online. If you have to be away for a while, please PM/text/email/tweet a list of players you want to either myself, or someone you trust to make your pick for you. (like someone that may be drafting after you) If possible, try to @ the person either before, or after you make your pick depending on where you slot, so everyone can pull thru as quick as possible.
With the amount of players at our disposal, and the quality of NT owners we have in here, these 12 rounds shouldn’t take more than a week or two. This will not be a long project, I know people are excited to get put together an All Time team for arguments sake. There are no sims to worry about, shut up about stupid 2K ratings, this is about games, and comparison of said games, and matchups. There is no real way to “know” who will win considering players from 7 different decades are going to be selected.
At the end, we will have a vote among the 30 owners, as well as a few special requests from NTers not involved with this current Redraft.
The actual start of the draft is not official until 8/24, morning of. If owners want to come in and make their picks ahead of then, they are welcome to do so, but it is NOT required until said morning. We have a couple guys finishin some stuff up this week, that is why 8/24 was chosen as the official start date. But of course, owners are free to make their picks early if they pull thru here and wish to make their picks.
Let us begin.
