Ok, from the thread made before the draft started BnB said this:

"None of the guys that are being drafted will be included in this game because we don't know how they play in the NBA. so it's kind of hard to draft a guy who hasn't played a game and make a case for him, you know?"

Thus, 2011 draft class in ineligible.

wow.

Fair enough...I didn't check on down the thread...just read the initial post, assuming all rules would be in there.

yup.

Cuz we have no idea how these rookies coming out will be in the NBA.

if we did this a couple of years ago and someone drafted Hasheem Thabeet and tried making a case for him by saying "He's a great rebounder and shot blocker. He hasn't played in the NBA yet, but what he did in college defensively was insane, so he'll probably dominate guys downlow." he would get some votes.



But how's Thabeet doing in the NBA? Terrible. Would anyone draft him if they knew he was gonna be a bust? No.

well, you can make the same argument about guys coming off injuries...but regardless I see your point...

that's really different though.

If a guy was in the league for 4 years and was healthy all four years and played great, but in his 5th season [let's say it was this past season] he got injured early and missed most of the seaosn.

Yeah, we don't know how he'll be after the injury, but we know what he CAN do in the NBA. We don't know if he'll suck after the injury because he hasn't played enough after the injury to show us that he can play, but we can't assume that he wouldn't be good either.


But all the guys that were injured last season really slid this draft. Like David West, for example. if he never got injured, he would have easily went in round 5-6. His injury shouldn't hurt him in this draft though because he played most of the season, so that's what we go off of.

With rookies though, we have nothing to go off of except potential.

I probably should have added it in te rules on top somewhere, but I thought everyone already knew since I said it once before. My bad if there was any confusion

His next two picks. Maybe he meant literal picks? I thought it was the next two picks he had. I goofed there.

well it didn't effect him since he needs a C and no one drafted a C so far.

so it's his pick now.

the clone.. then it's over.

If Shane Battier was already picked, I guess I'll go with Tony Allen
