I'm 7 hours ahead of EST. If it's possible to start the draft anytime before ~4 pm EST, I'd be happy to play.

Yes. Still interested
A winner is someone who recognizes his God-given talents, works his tail off to develop them into skills, and uses these skills to accomplish his goals.

Push yourself again and again. Don't give an inch until the final buzzer sounds.

Other than picking an actual season for each player selected, we need to figure out parameters. Maybe we choose a decade and all seasons must be from that decade (or maybe all players must have played in it, but you can choose any season of the player even if not that decade).
2023 Historical Draft - Brooklyn Nets - 9th pick

Bigs - Pau, Amar'e, Issel, McGinnis, Roundfield
Wings - Dantley, Bowen, J. Jackson
Guards - Cheeks, Petrovic, Buse, Rip

Agreed. Is it easier if I just dictate it and you and whoever is most interested replies and we hash it out?

I figure the overall rules will the same as Gouki?s except the eligible players, saying ?played last year? instead of ?currently under contract? to avoid loopholes, and deciding draft times / frequency.

I would say we do seasons from 2010 on, whether the player is currently active or not. Efficiency is important in the sim and the modern era is significantly higher than the KG/Duncan era. Thoughts?

I'm still in.  2010 to 2025 works for me, although I'd lobby for 2005 to 2025 only because it opens up more of my favorite players, haha.
