I think I recommended this once, but do a mixed era draft:

12 rounds:

Must pick exactly three players from each era:  pre-1964; 1965-1979; 1980-1999; 2000-2020

Can have no more than two starters from any era.

It would require more strategy, I think.

That's an awesome concept.

Gotta say I think I like the 20 year span era of this draft to an All-Time Draft. Maybe we do an 80's/90's version for the next Historical Draft? I would want to be a GM in that.

Do a basbeall or soccer draft too.  ;D

I'd love to do a soccer draft. One like this - 21st Century eligible players - would be a lot of fun.

I'd also be up for doing any double decade NBA draft. 80s/90s is cool. The 70s/80s is surprisingly fun. The 60s/70s is harder depth wise but okay if not too many teams. I'd love to do one of those older drafts with older rules relative to their eras (not have to worry about shooting 3s all the dang time!).

I remember you guys did one before, I think it's about a decade ago. An all-time one.

I wish I was there to join. I'd like to do it again. There's a lot more talent to choose from right now.

I'm down for the football draft as long as I can select Fele with my first round pick :laugh:

How about adding 2 extra rounds tomorrow in order to have a complete 15-man roster, plus one 2-way player? 8)

Please...no. I am kinda burnt out doing these daily posting jobs trying to keep things up to date and running. It would mean more work adjusting the schedule, setting up another day, running the day, making four more picks for players, etc. Too much for me to do simply to add two players that will have absolutely no bearing on the game.

Yeah, feel like Nick deserves a holiday, lol. In future games I'll try and help out in commish duties as much as timezones allow me to

I need a Center who can defend the Pick & Roll.

With the 1st pick in the 13th round, the Dallas Mavericks select Myles Turner.



- Can defend the Pick & Roll.
- Can switch on guards.
- Can protect the rim (led the league in blocks in 2019).
- Can shoot the 3.
- Can foul Shaq and send him to the free throw line. :P

A great role player to have at the end of the bench.

Does anyone else think that Myles Turner seems more like the name of a blues musician or jazz vocalist than an NBA basketball player?
