2023 JazzFanz Annual Current Players Draft

[Thee Jazz Fan]

Morant/Cade
Ball/Vassell
LBJ/Issac
Mobley/Claxton
Porzingis/Capela

This team has everything, facilitators, lockdown defenders at multiple positions (Issac and Claxton are hybrid bigs that can guard wings). There's really no true weakness, as Vassell can come in and provide solid perimeter defense. One, I guess you can say is there isn't a lot of scoring off of the bench. But you don't need to be frontloaded with multiple 20 ppg players that will be getting 18, maybe 20 minutes max. Cade, Vassell come off the bench and can play a true 6th/7th man role in providing scoring for the 2nd unit. Capela/Claxton catch lobs, and Issac hits the occasional 3 that you need him to, but him and Claxton are mostly there to lockdown the main scoring options on opposing teams.

You should do a sim

Defensively your team is crazy deep but offensively I have big concerns about your lack of shooters.

I will, but I wont go crazy with the summary. I'll likely narrow it down, and maybe run the playoffs a few times to see who the majority winner is.

Zingod, Ball, Morant, Vassell can shoot. Issac is a respectable 3 point shooter when left open. Cade is a respectable shooter from 3, and is a good mid range shooter. Mobley can shoot the mid range J. And Lebron is Lebron. lol.

Here is the playoff order:

1 v 12
2 v 11
3 v 10
4 v 9
5 v 8
6 v 7

The two teams with the highest percentage of votes in a loss will move on to the second round where it will be a traditional 8 team format from there on.

I’m planning on posting these today you can post your write-up in the comments. Send me your starters and bench if it isn’t going to be obvious what they are please.

This is fine, but another option is the TFP said he would do a sim and you could do seeding according to the sim then give the 1 seed a bye then we don’t have losing teams in the second round.

Want to apologize about being a bitch during the draft, specifically to huge Ron and Rubashov and anyone else who might’ve been offended.

Awes

I'll run a sim with these matchups, likely Thursday night Ill start it (I'll start assembling teams tonight probably, that is the longest part of the sim lol). I'll skip the regular season process, and jump straight to playoffs with this seeding. I'll run the sim 10x (won't take long to just sim b2b like that, and show who the majority winner is. I'll show the winner of each sim, as well.

I can also run it 20x if people want a wider window to see whose team is really the best.

If after 10 times my team isnt the majority I vote for running it 20

All first round matchups are live and I think this will be one of the most competitive playoffs we’ve had in these things. We are getting a really good voting turnout in the matchups. More votes in this first round than the championship of the all-time draft.
