DBR Mock Draft!! Sign Up Here!

[pfrduke]

All. JasonEvans, erstwhile commissioner of the DBR mock draft, is currently competing in the WSOP. I have dubbed myself assistant commissioner and stepped in to take his place and run the show this year. The mock draft will start on Monday June 23 at 9am Eastern [edit - if we get filled up by close of business Thursday, we will start Friday, June 20 at 9am].

Here are the rules:

Whoever posts first in this thread saying they want to GM a certain team-- they are the GM. GM duties do not entitle you to make trades, we are only going to make draft picks.

Every GM is expected to make his picks in a timely fashion. Please do not make us wait 5 or 6 hours for you to make a pick or we will never get through the entire draft. It would be nice if we could pick the entire first and second rounds before the NBA does the real thing in 8 days.

Once you make a pick, you are expected to explain your choice and be ready for criticism.

That's about it. If I think of more that needs to be added, I will post it in this thread. Again, the way to sign up to make a team's picks is to post it into this thread.

Now, go for it!!!

I will be drafting for the Sonics.

My choice is to choose for the San Antonio Spurs.

(What does "PM me" mean?)

yay, we have another taker - come on people, let's get this going.

The "PM" comment was directed to me. I asked a moderator to update the list of teams, and -jk asked me to send him a private message with periodic updates. Posting in this thread is all you need to do to sign up, so you're signed up for the Spurs.

[pacificrounder]

I'll take the Portland Trailblazers.

[bdh21]

I'll take the Wiz

[JasonEvans]

Thanks, pfr. I am somewhat busy at the moment and really fell down on the job when it comes to running the DBR Mock Draft.

After 5 or 6 years, it is probably healthy to have a new commish this year.

That's not the attitude to take (besides, we need GMs - this mock draft is in danger of being stillborn...)

[ForeverBlowingBubbles]

Chicagooooooooooo BULLS (I'll take em.)

[Bob Green]

pfrduke,

I'll take the New York Knicks.

[BD80]

I'll take the Pistons

-Jason "the Hawks have zero picks ..." Evans

Then how can the Hawks screw up this year's draft???????

[ugadevil]

I'll take the Charlotte Bobcats. Although I'm not sure who I'll draft since all the UNC players have pulled out.

[pfrduke]

Dukie412 has taken Toronto. Keep it coming folks - 9 down, 20 to go.

[bdh21]

pfrduke,

I'll take the New York Knicks.

Do you plan to draft in the style of Donnie Walsh or Isaiah? That is an important distinction!

[91.92.01DUKE]

I will draft for the Los Angeles Clippers

[pfrduke]

Chicagooooooooooo BULLS (I'll take em.)

FBB has switched from the Bulls to the Utah Jazz. Apparently the Beasley/Rose decision was too stressful. 19 more owners to go, and lots of good looking teams still available!

[juise]

I'm tempted to take Memphis or Minnesota, but I'm in the Pacific time zone, so I may hold up the show. I'll take New Jersey.
