Wow...
 
I'm in.

But would suggest we limit it to players from the 1980s forward. Old timers only add confusion and people don't know anything about who they are voting for.
 
I guess the match up winners are determined by a poll? Sounds cool I'm in

Nah. All time draft sucks. I'll play current draft once this is concluded.

This. Too much recency bias and too many changes in the game in the last 50 years to compare players from era to players from another. Would Steph Curry score 100 points per game pre 1980, or would he be out with injuries due to the physical nature of the game back then and the far less-used ref whistles? No one can tell and the arguments become vapid as a restult, so people vote for the names they know. Boring.

I am in this same boat. I want to play in the current draft one. Its too hard to compare players of different bb eras.

I don't do this just to win, I'd be lying if I said I didn't try, but the real fun is in building a legend team through a draft and Wheeling in dealing, and learning the history of many of the greats. It's nice to get votes and stuff but it's at the bottom of the list as to why the all time draft is the best jazzfanz summer time game.

Have you ever participated in one of the all-time drafts?

Nope for that reason. You simply cannot compare the players. The game is so different and most of us didnt watch Wilt and other greats actually play. Little things like the hand checking rule have completely changed things. I am just not a fan of comparing different eras of basketball. But I will participate in voting and throw out some opinions.

I am looking forward to the current players one after and will participate.

You had no problem building a team before. The problem is when people don't win or don't get the votes they thought they should they get butt-hurt.
