I was thinking after we wrapped up our 8-man teams, we could have one day (or one plus a partial day) of trades, and one day for each GM to write up a small piece describing what you think the virtues of your team are compared to the opposition (i.e-selling your team).

Plus, we can finalize it and talk about it on here while the voting is going on elsewhere.

Sounds good.
Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are dumber than that.

Nope.

I'm pretty sure I'm the only one to actually draft an ABA player at all (during the year in question).

The bent to the draft has been towards modern players, which makes a certain amount of sense.

Lonzo would basically just have to push the ball up the floor hard and make a direct pass.

With Durant, Barkley, Allen, and Kareem...that wouldn't be the worst thing.

Death to Lonzo if he shoots though, even the newer version of him :D

@Max. is up with his last pick

Edit: Logging off, but Max has until 8:50 ET tomorrow to pick. If he hasn't, the 24 hour period is up, and then I will pick, followed by Rob (and Max would be able to pick at any point thereafter).
