2024 annual Jazzfanz All time jazz draft

The thing that cracks me up is that Thee mentioned that he wanted ‘Melo, and then probably had a shot at him. . . but then @Domino swept in like a bird of prey and snatched him up before he could do anything about it.

He took manu from me earlier in the draft after saying he wasn’t going to… I probably would’ve stayed put if he didn’t say anything

There’s no nice guys in running a draft. You’re either Danny Ainge, or you’re the mark. No in between.

No I told you I was eyeing him and may or may not pick him with that pick then I didn’t. Then you didn’t either then a couple picks later I did. Lol

Oh, I see. The draft has been kind of messy.

I have a thought about that. I really like the concept of using the different eras and the strategy that goes into it, but I hate the early 2000’s. I think it’s the weakest one of all of them, and I rarely get a starting caliber player that I would draft in the first 5 rounds in this thing.

I think this would be a lot better if we did one guy from ‘79 or earlier, one guy from the 80’s, one guy from the 90’s, one modern guy from 2000+, and then a free for all after the 4th pick. Same basic strategy, but a little less stringent and would open up a lot more of the draft, a lot earlier.

Just something to think about.

For me, it's the pre-80s. There are only a handful of players I find good enough to play with modern talent.

Yeah I’ve been doing these draft for 10+ years and found the restrictions in the past few years to be a lot less fun.

Just too much restrictions for me.

We should come up with something better next year.

I would propose first 5 picks has to be x3 from pre 2000, and x2 from post 2000.

That would make it a lot more fun imo.

That’s an interesting one. I also like the idea of drafting anyone you want, whenever you want - but you can only have a maximum of three guys from any one era on your roster at any given time during the draft.
