What's new

2024 annual Jazzfanz All time jazz draft

Bawse gave thumbs up to both Giricek and Thee’s proposal, so it sounds like he’s fine with either one. So I think Keefe can safely pick.
 
We've never done that. In the past 11th and 12th guys in the sim have 0 effect on any outcome because I select scrubs to fill out the 11th and 12th spots that get no minutes.

Picking 12 this year though is a good experiment. It's never been done before to my knowledge so it could be useful in both the sim and in the vote because there's still a lot of value on the board. I say we pick 12 just to try it out, and see if people find it useful to add versatility to their lineups.
I think “adding versatility” muddies the waters because basically nobody uses 12 players when you remove injuries and garbage time. A competent team-builder should be able to get all the versatility they need with their first 8 or 9 players. Nobody should be playing Jason Kapono or Jimmer minutes because they can shoot a basketball in a contest of 16 All-NBA teams. If people are dying to draft specialists, that’s what the 9th/10th picks are for.
