2012 CB Historical Draft -Draft Lottery Edition - NEED VOLUNTEERS

[GreenFaith1819]

So...I slept like a baby last night, knowing that the NBA landscape is free, for a time, from the likes of the Los Angeles Lakers.

Now...I must put aside those anti-purple and gold thoughts, and consider the possibility that I MAY have a Laker or two on my roster - depending on how things pan out.

Lord help me...such torture

Edited - double post.

Word.

[bdm860]

Well I could be doing worse, I could be Rebus. 

Wait, didn't he ask to pick last?  I guess I can't be doing any worse. 


Actually though, not a bad spot for a '85-and-on, snake draft.  I see possibilities.

[GreenFaith1819]

Love the spot .

But as for the Team?

I guess that I could just copy and paste last year's mantra (when I was saddled with the Lakers) for THIS year. But I'll go ahead and just recall it from memory:

Laker fans - I promise to NOT butcher your team in this Historical Draft. I promise to draft well, and build a team that not only YOU could be proud of, but I will, too.

Gulp.

I promise to NOT draft Acie Earl with the first pick.

Disclaimer: Be aware, any lurking Laker Fans, that I MAY draft some Celtics onto my team. Such a move, while vile in some Laker fan's eyes, would in truth make your team BETTER.

Also be aware that I reserve the right to move your team BACK to Minneapolis. Such a move would probably make my experience a bit easier to swallow.

But, sigh, in that scenario, I'd STILL be saddled with "Lakers"....

 

[Donoghus]

Pretty solid, I'll take 5th.  

[Moranis]

7th.  Pretty solid spot to be as there are about 8-10 players that would be considered all time greats, so I will get to pick between at least a couple.

Hey if you wanna shed the Laker logo, I'll be more than happy to switch teams/places with you. I've got no problem being the heel.

[Bahku]

Same team I had in this year's Pick-Two, but a much higher spot, thankfully ... I'm good with middle-of-the-pack.

I'll keep LA. Just trying to insert some humor, here.

I still may move em' back to Minny, though.

[Moranis]

I think I'm going to go for a totally unlikeable team filled with ****s and dirty players.  Will make it more fun.  Of course I'm not going to reach just to take an **** so it may not work out.

[RebusRankin]

Yes I did want that spot since I can pick when I get home from work. Can I move Miami to another city? The Minneapolis Muskies has a nice ring. Maybe the Carolina Cougars? Pittsburgh Condors.
Then again maybe the Miami Floridians.

[RebusRankin]

Very interested to see which player Who goes with overall. Also interested to see how the first round plays out.


I'm drafting all Lakers. That will win me mucho votes.
