[B]Rookie seasons only.[/B]
[B]Notes[/B]:
1) The draft will run from 54-55 through 12-13 (I don't have anything against pre-shotclock player seasons, but including them could potentially cause confusion).
2) ABA seasons are permitted (though if there's overwhelming opposition, we can limit the ABA to 74,75,76 or whatever we collectively decide, or potentially eliminate it entirely).
3) There's no salary cap. Here's the link to search for players:
Player search: [url]http://www.whatifsports.com/nba-l/playersearch.asp?pg=1&pos=6&season=1954-55&season2=2011-12&sal_min=239000&sal_max=99000000&format=2&showsecondary=1&sb=1&order=1&max=500&searches=-1&replacesearch=-1[/url]
10-12 members, as per usual, seems to be the sweet spot. Post in this thread if you're interested, and after we've gotten enough members, I'll randomize the draft order. I think we'll draft 8 rounds, and then you can fill the rest of your roster with undrafted free agents.
4) I'm not going to place a time restriction to begin with, though if people are taking an incredibly long amount of time it might be necessary. BTW my PM box is full, so perhaps somebody else should volunteer to send reminders/receive selections.
5) Remember, [B]rookie seasons only[/B]!
