Since the offseason is upon us, I wanted to do something that would hopefully be fun for everyone in the SE Division. So I'm starting a GM Draft in the Magic forum (since ralaw agreed to help run it) with the goal to have all of the spots filled by posters from the SE Division team forums.
For those that don't aren't familiar with GM Drafts, what we do is have one person represent each of the teams and then all of the NBA players are available to be drafted. The draft order will be randomly determined and then each round will be conducted in a snake format where the person with the first pick then has picks 60 & 61.
If you are interested in participating please sign up in this thread and feel free to ask any questions as well.

Kevin Garnett: “Okafor is having a great year. He’s strong, a very good rebounder and active around the basket. He’s playing like an animal right now.” Dirk Nowitzki: “He is playing phenomenal and he comes to play every night. He is going to be a dominant player is this league.”
