Blame it on Akshay/SS, Nowitzki was our original pick.Its kind of fun trading blows against each other.

Next round you're probably taking our pick haha.

 

[Mani]

Next round you're probably taking our pick haha.

 

[altodevil]

Keeping you all waiting when the pick is obvious is a bit cruel, but just double checking how they fit current team.

[Sarni]

Reggie! Was going to take him instead of Ray Allen, probably a mistake from me to take Allen seeing how many players he is going to block having played for 4 teams.

[syrian_scholes]

Taking Gary Payton.

Played with Ewing in Seattle in 2000-2001, can't pick him.

 

[Edgar Allan Pillow]

Played with Ewing in Seattle in 2000-2001, can't pick him.

I know.

I certainly can pick him, just can't play them together in a match. Still exploring options.

@Skizzo please verify, thanks.

 

[syrian_scholes]

So you play either or in a match? I think you should explore changing your pick man.

 

[Edgar Allan Pillow]

So you play either or in a match? I think you should explore changing your pick man.

Well we pick 10 players, right? 2 for each position. Payton is too good to pass up at PG. Depending on how other picks go and my opponent, I'll decide to play him or Ewing.

 

[Sarni]

I think we are not allowed to pick players who played together at all. What he meant in OP is that it doesn't matter if they were on the same court at the same time, being on a roster together at some point is enough to rule out them being picked by the same user.

 

[Sarni]

Well we pick 10 players, right? 2 for each position. Payton is too good to pass up at PG. Depending on how other picks go and my opponent, I'll decide to play him or Ewing.

But you cannot pick him at all, from what I understand. See:

• Players you pick must not have played together in any NBA league or playoff game. All Star games, Internationals, Olympics etc don't count. Just being part of the same roster is enough to count as "played together".

 

[Moby]

You can't have two mates in the 10 man matchday roster.

My understanding was that he's based on the no mate rule from football drafts, where you can pick players but they cannot be fielded in matches together.

I can repick if Skizzo says otherwise.

 

[Moby]

It's not similar to a football game where playing subs is optional - all 10 of your men will get minutes in a given game. The entire 10 man roster is the match playing squad.

 

[Edgar Allan Pillow]

Hmmm, didn't realize that.

OK, let me pick again.

And this screws up my earlier picks.

 

[syrian_scholes]

It's not similar to a football game where playing subs is optional - all 10 of your men will get minutes in a given game. The entire 10 man roster is the match playing squad.

Maybe if he plays an 8 man rotation it can count?

 

[Moby]

Prob best wait for Skizzo

 

[altodevil]

Not really in the spirit of things is it? Do feel a bit bad if you hadn't realized though. We would have taken Payton if we didn't have Shaq.

 

[Akshay]

Yeah think Payton was blocked for quite a few due to picks. We couldn't take him either.
