The Rules

The team with the first pick is able to pick ANY available player- and then must release a player. ALSO the team MUST after its FIRST pick MUST get under the 15 man roster limit So If I have the first pick - say the Heat

drumroll

That skinny guy from Orlando- I know I'm shocked too.

and I'll cut

Joel Anthony to replace him and
Chris Quinn to get to 15 players

now for you teams that have LESS than 15 players ,you do NOT have to drop a player until you reach 15. no added to the roster of all the teams out there- both Quinn and anthony are avail

AT ANY time a team can drop out- so after 5 rounds if the Mavs GM is happy and there is not really anyone better out there for him- he can end his draft.

Questions?

Let me know

There is a 24 hour Running clock, miss a pick you are DONE for THAT ROUND no late picks - you want to que a pick ( I won't be on so If I miss it I want Howard, then LBJ, then Paul, then Kobe) then mail ME.

This is a round draft not serpentine.
