Mock Draft Chat

[Nosferatu]

well, in my example, I used a 2000-2009 restriction... and then if we use genres or other categories as "positions" then we are comparing similar movies to similar movies... there will always be a case that someone didn't see a movie, but let them subjectively pick which is better...

Again, all our mocks are subjective... and chances are if we redid ALL of our playoffs, the majority of them would have gone a different way...

I disagree with everything you said, subjective? Not really, there is a reason the same people won over and over again the first couple years of the draft. Also, they would not go another way unless we went back and voted on them now then I agree because most of you guys would make sure Troy and I didn't win so much.


With a sports draft Hank Aaron is better than Tom Brunansky, everyone knows that thats ever watched the game and their stats help show that. With movies you don't have that, it is completely subjective, like I said another favorite movie of mine is Double Indemnity, again I bet half of you have no idea what the movie is about or whos in it or when it came out but all of you are gonna know Dark Knight and would vote for Dark Knight because you have heard of it and know what its about.

2000 - 2009 See the thing for me is I don't see most of the movies most people see, I don't like blockbusters or movies about cartoon characters like Superman and Batman or stupid kid shit like Transformers so it would be pointless for me to join in, but if y'all wanna do it thats absolutely fine with me.

I just think when it comes to voting there is absolutely nothing to use aside from opinion and that makes it impossible to honestly pick a winner. Just my one cent!

don't get me wrong, I don't care whether we do movies or not... I just thought, maybe it would be a good idea to change things up a little... doesn't have to be movies, but thought we all like some movies, would be a new conversation that we really haven't had here much... even music, which is not my cup of tea... If mock drafts is only sports, then fine, but why does it have to be??


Actually, we can do the phase draft for movies or music and that would work amazing...

Honestly, I would love to do a mock using music or movies or TV shows but theres just no way to pick a winner.

I will not be surprised because my tastes are not similar to other peoples. But, you are missing the point there is no way to vote so whats the point? We might as well just talk about our favorite movies while we draft for football or baseball...

Yeah, but you watched TV in the 70s and 80s, so you know what 95% of the movies that came out between 2000 and 2009 are about.

NBA DRAFT


You will draft 10 players

2 - PG
2 - SG
2 - SF
2 - PF
2 - C

Players will be selected for every 5 years starting with 1965, 1970, 1975, 1980, 1985, 1990, 1995, 2000, 2005, 2010

A players eligibility will be the first year they played in the NBA. Meaning, if they were drafted in 1974 but didn't play until 1975 they ARE eligible for 1975, however if the player was drafted in 1975 but didn't play their first game until 1976 they ARE NOT eligible.

 

[Nosferatu]

OR


We will select 1 player from every bucket. We will have a total of 10 players. Players had to play 5 seasons with the team they are selected for. 3 seasons for the Bobcats. Every player plays 24 minutes.

Bucket 1 : Lakers : Celtics : Bulls
Bucket 2 : Spurs : 76ers : Bucks
Bucket 3 : Cavaliers : Jazz : Rockets
Bucket 4 : Pistons : Mavericks : Timberwolves
Bucket 5 : Knicks : Thunder : Pacers
Bucket 6 : Trailblazers : Warriors : Wizards
Bucket 7 : Nuggets : Suns : Heat
Bucket 8 : Nets : Hawks : Clippers
Bucket 9 : Magic : Pelicans : Raptors
Bucket 10 : Kings : Grizzlies : Bobcats

WE WILL DRAFT : 2PG : 2 SG : 2 SF : 2 PF : 2 C


TRADING OF PLAYERS IS NOT ALLOWED.

TRADING OF BUCKETS IS ALLOWED

EX... You can't just decide in round 9 you will trade Magic & Dirk for MJ & Wade. Once a player is selected he cannot be traded!

EX... You may if you decide you want two players from bucket 3, trade lets say your bucket 2 pick to someone for their bucket 3 pick. You would then have TWO picks from bucket 3 and ZERO picks in bucket 2...

You are NOT allowed to have more than THREE picks in any bucket.

I like this idea better...

I like this idea better...

The only issue with that idea is the player pool is a lot smaller...

 

[Shanemansj13]

Well actually I am good with either

I disagree with everything you said, subjective? Not really, there is a reason the same people won over and over again the first couple years of the draft.

With a sports draft Hank Aaron is better than Tom Brunansky, everyone knows that thats ever watched the game and their stats help show that. With movies you don't have that, it is completely subjective, like I said another favorite movie of mine is Double Indemnity, again I bet half of you have no idea what the movie is about or whos in it or when it came out but all of you are gonna know Dark Knight and would vote for Dark Knight because you have heard of it and know what its about.

I don't know how, or why, I've seen double indemnity, but I have and thought it was a good movie. It's just hard for me to keep up with the cadence of older films and the way they speak.
