I'd be disappointed, but I'm sure there is an offensive lineman or kicker named Chubb that Ballswin will take at 3.

You know the funniest part was he cut Chubb and Chubb ended up looking like a pretty decent IDP prospect!

I am 100% sure I getting a huge talent at #6.

[Axel]

You're right. I plugged that in first thing this morning on my phone while waiting for the kettle to boil:

Tier 1
1. JBML (Knicks drawn #3 overall)
2. Tucas (Cavs drawn #5 overall)
3. Ballswin (drawn #7 overall)
4. Axel (Suns drawn #6 overall)

Tier 2
5. Mack (Grizzlies drawn #2 overall)
6. Apollo (Hawks drawn #8 overall)
7. Drizz (Wiz drawn #9 overall)

Edit:
8. Mango aka. The Champ.

This draft looks like it might be stacked in the first round by the way. Lots of good looking WR prospects coming out.

Wasn’t Baldwin the consolation winner, so him and I would swap 3rd and 4th.

Thanks for posting this Axel and thanks for pointing this out this matter so we can address it beforehand. If I remember correctly I suggested tying the inverted standings to the top seven lotto teams. I think this makes Mack tied to the Memphis Grizzlies or whoever has the pick.

Does this make sense?

Edit: Even if it doesn't, we need to pick one of those teams today beforehand and so the Grizzlies are the nomination unless someone says otherwise.

[Axel]

So the NBA Draft Lotto is tonight, which means, NFL Dynasty Draft Lotto, is tonight!


Tier 1 Lottery
New York Knicks = JBML > 14.0%
Cleveland = Tucas > 14.0%
Phoenix = Axel >14.0%
Chicago = Ballswin* > 12.5%

Tier 2 Lottery
Atlanta = Apollo > 10.5%
Washington = Drizz > 9.0%
???? = Mack > 7.5%

8th spot: Mango, the league Champ.
*Consultation round winner is guaranteed a top three pick regardless of lotto outcome.


So there is a flaw in the plan Apollo, Mack is slated at 7.5%, but there is no 7.5% tonight, but there are 3 different teams at 6% (New Orleans, Memphis, and Dallas) according to NBA.com. The plan was to have a team at 7.5%, but it looks like they altered the odds since the teams were in a 3 way tie.

So we're all good with this idea? All it's doing is piggybacking off something else that is compatible with our draft. For those playing NBA Dyansty it makes lotto night even more stressful!

[James Ballswin (Realizar)]

Yeah we can’t have a team winning twice. Just disregard my idea and stick with what works.

[James Ballswin (Realizar)]

8th Place: Teams 1 and 8
7th Place: Teams 2 and 9
6th Place: Teams 3 and 10
5th Place: Teams 4 and 11
4th Place: Teams 5 and 12
3rd Place: Teams 6 and 13
2nd Place: Teams 7 and 14

[Apollo]

I didn't think we had a problem there. How it's handled in NBA Dynasty is they just ignore any team being drawn that isn't assigned to a particular dynasty team. We have two tiers and so that's slightly different but not much.

If a tier 2 team gets drawn in tier 1 we would just ignore that in tier 1 and move to the next team drawn. We're just looking for the order in which those bottom four teams come out. Likewise for the second tier.

[James Ballswin (Realizar)]

I’’m favour of it. And I’ll propose an oppportunity:

Given that the NBA draft lottery involves 14 teams, we could make them all relevant for our Dynasty league by assigning two NBA lottery positions to each of the seven eligible Dynasty managers.

I believe the assignment issue (how/what lottery positions would be assigned to each manager) can be solved.

[Apollo]

Wait so we’re using NBA teams to determine our NFL lottery positions?

That's what I'm proposing. It's just a means to take the draw out of our hands. They're running a perfectly good lottery.
