Modern Era NBA Build a Franchise Draft Discussion - Let's Get'er Done - Page 485 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

out of curiosity, when did you request to bump anything regarding expanding it to 12 rounds? i remember the whole coaches thing, but i'm pretty sure the 11/12th round discussion never took force.

could be wrong though

Huge level.

I would love to add on two more rounds. However, you're the only other person who has expressed interest in this, and we obviously need the great majority to favor it in order to do it.

Big Cats locker room is going to look like a Columbian drug ring.

don't like 12, the guys drafted there would basically never see the floor anyways.

I agree. The last 2 guys on your roster are just not going to play, but it will add a good month to the draft. I don't see the benefit.

I agree that they'd rarely see the floor, but you could either take a lot of big upside guys or go with some solid veteran role players type for locker room chemistry.

Basically I'm just enjoying this thread and would like to make it last as long as possible. One of the reasons I preferred no time limit was my enjoyment of this whole process.

6-4 in favor of extending the draft so far, what's the amount of votes (or %) needed?

Just because of the amount of time this draft is taking, I'd vote 10 rounds.

That and JAMES POSEY FTMFW!!!

We can't force people to draft if they don't want to. Unless we got an overwhelming majority(like 35 or so) saying they'd continue to draft, then I don't really see how its possible.
