Of course not, after we done with the draft, other managers gonna argue how dumb some of your picks are and how great their teams is. Somebody is gonna be David Khan and somebody is gonna Pat Riley it's the perception of other managers that determines it. So in hindsight yeah.

We didn't in the past because it was meant more for making real life teams. As you know, many solid role players don't put up the stats to be as valuable in our usually fantasy leagues, etc.

maybe we could put a fantasy twist to it, but also use some "real life" evaluators to it. there are some good formulas for production and per minute stats to show true numbers. just an idea.

Drafting strictly like a real life team is a major draw for me, don't know about anyone else.

Agreed -- adding fantasy basketball criteria seems to distract from the purpose of the exercise, which is creating the best possible real life team.

Agree 100%. Would be a major mistake to add a fantasy aspect to it.
