So are the players you draft under their current contract? Like if you took Russell Westbrook, would you have him for only one year and then he is a free agent? That would make guys with great contracts like Crowder and AB a whole lot more valuable. Also, are draft picks being reset? Or if you take the celtics franchise, do you get all of their future picks. Thanks for the clarification.
Contracts don't matter in this draft, my friend.
You draft them and you get who they are as a player at this stage of their careers, regardless of contract terms.
This is a one off draft, build the best team you could possibly build and argue your way as to why you have the best. So future picks don't count as well.
Think of it as like this thing TNT did before. But instead, we are using current active players. And for us to win the CB Draft, we have to not only be good at drafting, constructing a well rounded team, we also have to convince other GM's that our team is in fact, the cream de la creme based on constructed arguments.
