DDL#19--The 70's!

"Players that were great in their day..are great again in the DDL"

The DDL (Decade Draft League) explores the history of Pro-Basketball one unique era at a time. This season, amerk1180 & the 'WayBack Machine' will travel back to the the the 1970's, an ara of short shorts, big afro's and bubblegum pop music. It was also the end of a long Celtics dynasty and the Knioks and Lakers was the hot rivalry, not the Celtics/Lakers. It was Earl the Pearl, Clyde, Elgin and the IceMan....

In this league, we will do picks every HALF hour, instead of one an hour. I hate these drafts lasting two-three weeks! Also, at the end of a day's round, picks CAN continue in OFF THE CLOCK mode into the next days round. As long as the guy in front of you picks, you can too. For this draft, no Wilt years over $11,500,000 are useable.


Scrubs for the 70's DDL
71-72 Charlie Paulk & George Stone are the scrubs for this DDL draft. You may opt out in the 10th round and take 1 or both of these scrubs. It is against the rules to play these two players. You must have over 19,680 mins to take them.

Hey Smokey, I signed up for this on the classified ad on 11/1 and I see lots of people have two teams and I don’t have one. Any chance room can be made for me? If not, it’s okay. Thanks.
