wouldn't this draft have been a lot more effective if we all agreed to use a chatroom or something on a certain day at a certain time that the most ppl could make it on? I understand that the offseason is long and we want something to do but I can see people definitely losing interest in the long run.

its always been like this. And we couldn't get 30 people in a chatroom at the same time for long enough. Plus this is more of a thing to pass time.

Well I think it could work, just at the start of the sign-up say. This draft will occur on Saturday at 3 PM Eastern time, each person will have a maximum of 10 minutes drafting time. If a person doesn't show up then they will be replaced by someone on the waiting list.

Finding 30 people who could all be online at the same time could be difficult. and 30 picks/round*10 minutes/pick*12 rounds=60 hours. so that wouldn't really work either. even if people just take 1 minute/pick, its still 6 hours on line.

I do have another idea, however, but it would hinder trading until after the draft, or during rounds if no one falls that you like.

Yup. Another ~35 minutes until you pick!

Where'd you go?

elton is a beast. can't believe he fell this far. it was only 2 years ago that he was putting up 24.7 and 10 a game with 2.5 blks. I believe he's the best PF in the game after Amare, KG, and Dirk. He's always been overshadowed because he played in the West with those guys but now after being traded to the East maybe more ppl will notice. While last season was kind of lost due to injury, even in the couple games he got to play at the end of the season he put up averaged around 18-8 with around 2 blks - i think he'll be back to his career averages of 20-10 this season.

You named another PF better than Brand, and you didn't even notice.

well Duncan has been starting at center and playing a majority of minutes at center this season and last.
 
Posting opinions about the undrafted is really annoying. Just don't do it.

Agreed
 
I only want one player, so if ace or Denny picks him I want to move down.

PM me and we'll put a deal in place if that happens.

I think I know this player you speak of. And I would want to move down if he was taken as well.

Dude, Carter got taken 2nd. Stop carrying such a flame for him.

I've got one good guess and one longer shot who it might be, based off your stated drafting strategy.
 
Give me a couple minutes to think this pick over or give me a offer.
 
Aaaaaand there goes the player I was talking about. Love the pick.

I knew it.
Roy is a beast. Versatile guard. Not injury prone or a bad
locker room influence. A good leader.
