Fantasy Draft Round 1 (Picks 1-15)

[billy]

Official Announcement: If we can get half a round done per day in this format, we will just do the entire draft like this. Unless a majority of GMs want to do it with a time limit.

We will go ahead and start round 1 with no time limit (if your pick is up and you want to make a pick go ahead, if not your time is still slotted on 6/13/2015)

I will cross the names out of the Player List as you pick them.

Enjoy!

Jabari Parker is now on the clock! Just post here with the player you want to take :)

Comments by other GMs about the draft and picks are welcome, I will update the OP and the Player list with the players taken and still available.

Remember you inherit the real life contract! If you pick Lebron you only get him for 2 years with no bird rights! Also all options except for Qualifying offers are turned to TEAM OPTIONS! If you need to brush up on the rules or have any questions just ask me!

Here is a link to the fantasy draft round 1 of the pinoy hoops sim league which uses rules almost identical to ours. For reference only, some of the picks are great, some are really dumb.
"a simple tip, don't decide just base on the ratings. Their are a lot more to consider from potential, contract and etc." -Gregg Popovich
Our ratings will change about every season for each player based on real life performance, so drafting young will pay off in the years to come!

Dont forget, JR Smooth is still available

[Deleted]

As tempting as JR Smooth sounds the Utah Jazz select Paul George with the 7th overall pick.

This is assuming we don't count him as injured this year right? I'm not totally familiar with the rules, first time in a league like this.

No injuries until next year
