    Recently, there was an All NBA All time draft held in which a draft took place and clutchfans voted on which team they thought would win.

    Link to finals to see how voting was done.

    Link to see how the draft was done.

    There was a lot of debate on era differences and the such.

    In this boring lockout, I thought we could run the same type of draft but for current players.

    I honestly thought it was a lot of fun and its always interesting to discuss how players would mesh together for good chemistry and good talent.

    This has been done really well by a Celtics site, Celticsblog where a draft took place and then each team posted his or her team gameplan. The community then voted.

    Their finals

    So taking suggestions and sign ups. Then I'll randomize Draft order and we can go from there.


    So far this is what I'm thinking -

    Basic Rules/Guidlines

    1. The draft will be serpintine (1-10 for the first round then 10-1 in the second round, 1-10 third round and so on).

    2. The draft will be 8 people. 5 starters and bench. Everyone is current 2011 level.

    3. Their MIGHT be a coach draft at the end if people want.

    4. Players are assumed to be relatively healthy but still under their age constraints (Jermaine O'Neal, T-Mac and Garnett have terrible knees, Kobe has his messed up pinky, Brandon Roy's knees etc.) But everyone will play.

    5. You can assume some players have developed/regressed over the offseason, but obviously no large leaps/regressions. It has to be reasonably logical.


    And anything else you guys think is relevant.

    Hopefully there's interest.

    The whole point of brown-nose reps is lost... when you keep it a secret!
