This is pretty awesome. You're drafting a team from literally everyone in NBA history. You can even try it without access to the stats.
Each round begins with a slot machine that randomly assigns a team and decade combination. You then select the best available player from that team in that era. The game consists of five rounds — one for each roster position.
From there, you pick players from each decade from the '60s until now, and then it runs a simulated 82-game season.
I've spent about two hours playing with it today. Ridiculously fun.
Here’s my best out of 3

I just went 73-9, think you can go 82-0?

This is very addictive. My first team had Jordan, Duncan, and Brunson and somehow was only projected to have 56 wins.
Brunson doesn't get a lot of credit. I had a team with Lebron, Jordan and Brunson and it was only projected to win 62. My best score is still 73-9.
It probably didn't help that it was Wizards' Jordan and 2010's Duncan.
Here's my best one so far, both by record and by fun:

The full promise of Russ, Harden, and KD is finally unleashed!
Nice are you playing blind or with stats.
blind
idea: the share link should specify
Semi-related: have you posted to collect picks for the finals?
Thank you!
wow, nice
I am still trying for 82-0 but I also want to try to make the worst team possible.
I could definitely see doing this for a long time. Very low friction and quick iterations. Creators took inspiration from TikTok or some other addicting platform lol
Sucks when you use a great player at a spot and then can't use an all timer on the next spin. I just missed out on Bill Russell because I thought it was clever to put KG at C.
Best one so far.

Pretty fun, but I just wish they'd sort the players by PPG or overall score or something, since it's annoying to scan through dozens and dozens of no-name players.
Please stop giving me the Grizzlies and the Pelicans.
