All-Time NBA Dynasty Draft

[Ritzarmy]

My voting for baseball was eyeball test lol. Those teams were crazy

Amen man it seriously was a coin toss for most of those matchups.

 

[Ritzarmy]

What are your duties here? PM people!

I had responsibilities

Lol.

I will be voting by looking at statistics....if I didn't I would just vote on my favorite players...the bad part, I didn't even get to draft any of my favorite players.

I dislike how you said "I hope others will follow suit". As commish you and I need not to let our views influence others decisions. Now you have the full right to say how your going to vote but not how others should do the same as you. Like I posted I go by head to head match ups while you have another way of voting. Just like the last draft we did I really like most of the teams and it's going to be hard to decide.

The only thing I said I hoped people would follow is my opinion about drafting current players.

Which I do believe I have the right to say as commish, this was an all time draft, not a current draft. If we want to do a current draft then lets do one. I wont vote against teams simply because they have a bunch of current players but if its close my vote will go to the team who drafted more players from yesteryear.

But couldn't current players be considered being all time greats? Lebron, Duncan and a few others shouldn't be disqualified because they still are playing.

I agree and you'll notice I didn't say anyone would be disqualified for drafting current players.

In football someone (not saying u don't know) took Payton manning and he was a great pick so why not in basketball take a current player?

 

[Pack 500]

This is always the hardest part. The game has evolved since the 3pt line. My personal opinion is that everyone always overrates the 80s in every sport while overlooking players before and after.

A portion of my grading will be spacing. Not a lot of older players have great outside shots so you're going to need some newer players

Floor spacing was pretty much what my whole draft was based on, which I what I guess why you liked my team Clayton.

I just wanted to share what I will be judging on....

This is an all time draft so if you picked a bunch of current players that will hurt you when I vote and I hope others will follow suit.

If you drafted 4 SG's and 1 PF that will also hurt you when I vote.

I will vote on who I think put the best team together to score like crazy, that doesnt mean everyone has to have scored 20,000 points in their career but if you have 2 starters who are "defensive guys" and score 8 pts a game, that will hurt you when I vote.

I don't expect everyone to feel the way I do but if you drafted with the thinking you'd be a great defensive team you will not get my vote, as I said before these are the greatest players in the history of the league, they will not be stopped.

I believe you are referring to my team... Thing is, I have balanced it out, Depending on matchups... I don't feel too many other teams have the balance I do and to ignore the defensive studs I have would be crazy... Somebody drafted Steve Kerr, Tim Hardaway is going to struggle to defend at his height you must have balance, you must play D, who does Charles Barkley guard...? The Shaq Willis Reed tandem is 1 sided, but Shaq is an average defender at best and Reed will be guard players like Dirk, Melo and McAdoo... Rings and HOF players have to be included...

Anyhow, do you know when you're posting matchups...? I would like to post stats and my final lineups...

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

Oops I see it's my turn. I'll have a quick think and pick my final guy

 

[Ritzarmy]

You didn't say the word disqualified but said it would hurt you. I'm voting against your team because everyone is dead on your team.

Everyone let us know how you want your final line up. We will not be including stats because that will be to long. Matchups will be randomly drawn just like draft order and nos and I will hopefully post it tonight or tomorrow morning.

 

[da55bums]

crap, can I draft Curly Neel as my point guard? assists galore and can make half court shots with ease.

 

[Ritzarmy]

You can post stats and why your team should win on this thread but stats and other things but lineup won't be including in the playoff thread.

I don't think I said you CANT take current players. I don't blame people for taking Kobe, LeBron or Duncan

If you have 12 guys on your team and 7 of them are current players that shows me that you either don't know anything about the greats who came before or didn't spend time looking for greats from before. Which will help me determine who I vote for.

Just an example. Because I seen this happen a few times.

Elvin Hayes is available but you take Joakim Noah. Now you could still end up with a great team but you chose a current player over a much better player from the past because you either didn't research or you think people will vote for you because they know who Noah is.

If I offended anyone, tough!

 

[Nosferatu]

I will post the match ups when I get home from work about 8:00pm EST maybe a little sooner.

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

Picked Eddie Jones for my last pick

can you put on my team (over 250,000 points, over 70,000 assists and over 20 world championship rings, game ova)

I shook Curly's hand when I was a kid, my aunt brought me to see them and we were in the 2nd row main floor, it was awesome, I was like 8 years old.
