    Can we all agree that everyone has done a trade by now and move on to whatever next phase we should move on to?

    Okay. And I'm open to making a small trade for a backup center. But at the same time I have KAT that can play both 4&5 so no big deal if I don't and we want to move on to matchups.

    Hmm don't think the current award show affect how we judge our matchups in this draft as all our players consist of historical and current. I don't mind though but 5 days is a Long wait. Maybe we can discuss ideas for the next draft.

    How about we draft Two teams at the same time for the next draft? Of course there can't be repeat players. That will allow a wider pool of players to be picked and a lot more thinking. Then We will randomised the matchup in the playoffs. If you happen to face your own team, both team will automatically advanced. Then you can face your opponent with Two teams in a separate order. And if both of your teams are beaten then you lost. Breh can add in ideas

    I like the idea that would take us out of our comfort zone and experimenting with something new.

    I also would want us to do a All Dleague Draft or International leagues just for experiment. We have to research for it.

    We might not feel convenient judging but we will get used to it.

    It is very tough to research though, because most of us don't watch D-League or Intl guys. Pretty sure most wouldn't want to watch dozens of entire D-League game replays.

    Seriously we don't have to do the matchups right now but it would be good to know the brackets in advance.

    Today or tomorrow.

    Alrite, alrite, alrite. But get rid of that conservative angle, will ye? Fantasy should be exciting and new.

    Nah breh, I'd love drastic changes and new formats. Just gotta realize that certain things won't work out in the way you want em to. A fantasy draft where no one ever watched or even heard of the players certainly isn't exciting or viable for most people.

    We should stick to NBA rosters, but change the format.

    Sure, we would have to vote but the DL is well documented and has tons of footages. It was called the Top 3 league in the world. Maybe the Spanish league can compete there.

    Morey and others used it to find gems. You still got good players like Aaron Brooks, Yi Jianlian, Capela, Ohlbrecht, Terrence Jones, Danny Green.

    Tons of good or even Championship role players played there.

    Just not superstars and stars. Dun underestimate it, is all.

    I am not sure when you say it takes a lot of research but hey! It is one time and back to your norm.

    and re-drafting the same names, Bird, Shaq, Jordan, Kobe, Duncan........for years is sexier? Because you dun have to watch more footage?

    You could see from this Draft that people in here do tend to prefer American All NBA players to International players. Or Ex Dleague players.

    Why? They have been drafting virtually the same players from previous drafts. They are afraid to pick other players because of perception of others. Winning won't be fun this way.

    You got to have enough courage or imagination to pick players outside the box. That is fascinating.

    I got to credit @i3artow i3aller . He actually tried to include younger players that have not been drafted. This spices things up a notch.
