I’m not entirely sure I’m interested in dealing with all the transactions the wheel would include but I’m open to discussion

Just do a regular weighted lottery.
We've made this league really complicated and that was fun for a while but we can go back to simple.

I think everyone is at the point where time is a valuable resource so I think anything to simplify for GMs and commissioner is the way to go

Here is what the current NBA lottery odds, we could use this or modify it a bit based on the number of teams:
1. 14% 2. 14% 3. 14% 4. 12.5% 5. 10.5% 6. 0% 7. 7.5% 8. 6% 9. 4.5% 10. 3% 11. 2% 12. 1.5% 13. 1% 14. .5%

Thoughts:
Lotto for top 3 picks DC Rewards Remaining but in a different capacity No more box score rewards Need to determine starting draft class Potential draft class re-balance using top WS players of all time Removing upgrade trade limit Additional rewards that can be earned?

Thoughts: Lotto for top 3 picks DC Rewards Remaining but in a different capacity No more box score rewards Need to determine starting draft class Potential draft class re-balance using top WS players of all time Removing upgrade trade limit Additional rewards that can be earned? Lotto for top 3 picks - I would prefer something closer to the NBA model, but this is a fine alternative. DC Rewards Remaining but in a different capacity - maybe we give additional upgrade points to those with an on time and correct DC? addition 5 per team that does it?No more box score rewards - agree on this assuming we have set amounts for team/player upgradesNeed to determine starting draft class - personally loved the idea of using non-NBA college players. I wouldn't be opposed to pulling the list we used to start 6.0. Potential draft class re-balance using top WS players of all time - I know this is something you have suggested for a long time. I am indifferent on this idea, my only request is seeing the draft classes balanced overall. Although, without the wheel its less of a catastrophe if you miss on a high pick, but I still want to see class balancing at the top. Removing upgrade trade limit - this could replace the use of currency in trades since we wont have it. Additional rewards that can be earned? - I have long liked the idea of franchise upgrades, not sure if that would get too complicated though. but earning the ability to have assistant coaches, or integrating the assistant coaches as separate rewards.

Spit balling, we could get rid of draft years and random players mixing them all up. Essentially tier the players into 4 tiers. Depending on gm count. Let's say you have 20 gms. 4 tier 1, 6 tier 2 , 10 tier 3, 20 tier 4.
Also like the top 3 lotto , but would like a weighted 5 or 6 then the rest of the lotto is reverse standings to curb tanking. Just thoughts

Just thoughts So I think with draft classes, I could take win share players 1-100, 101-200, 201-300, and 301-400. Match them up 1+100+200+201, 2+99+199+202 etc. then randomize them and assign them a draft year.

How do we feel about incorporating the WNBA greats? I can adjust their height/weight to correlate with nba

How do we feel about incorporating the WNBA greats? I can adjust their height/weight to correlate with nba I like this as long as we don't rename them Benji Hammon and Cameron Parker and shit. I would just add 6 inches and 50 lbs for all of them to even them up. That would put Aliyah Boston (6'4" or 6'5" depending on where you look and 180 lbs) at 6'11" 230. Caitlin Clark and Diana Taurasi (6' 155) would be 6'6" 205. I wouldn't mind doing something similar to what we did in 5.0 or 6.0 where we started with WNBA legends, other non-NBA legends - international/streetball/Globetrotters, current HS/college players (current draft class so we get Scoot and Wemby), perhaps a handful of fan favorite fictional players, and then some GM submitted favorite players (your favorite college players who never made it big, NCAA tournament stars) or players who wouldn't be in the player pool Druce established above like infamous draft busts, etc. that we make older to round out the player pool.

Love all of this and like the plan with the draft classes. I think evening them out is perfect. Also, big fan of using the Non-NBA legends to start the league out. I feel like that worked really well for the start of 6.0 and allowed us to use known names that werent major NBA players. I am sure we can pull that list up and use it as a baseline, then add/subtract as we want.

Yeah I'm not renaming them. Infamous draft busts I'd like to keep in their IRL class so that maybe the sim could see them reverse their fortunes. With the list above that gives us 6 locked in profile players, and the DM could then add say 6 notable players not included (1.1 irl etc.) for the other profiles. The creation draft pool could be similar to the 6.0 one in that we could have the current class, famous non-nba guys, and everyones favorite college greats/other players/fictional players.

Also, in regards to draft classes, for non-profile guys I'd be a-ok with multiple strengths and weaknesses, as much info as the dm wants to include works for me.

It may be a good idea to eliminate the need for a DM somehow. It's more of a hassle on the commissioner to need to read profiles and on the DM to write them all up.

I think the primary role of the DM would be to take the player creation spreadsheet and add the names/height/weight/college/age to all the guys, and then we can simplify what is posted to a few strengths and weaknesses etc.

I never made it to wheel league. would be fun to try I've got very little to no interest in running a wheel league, and would need a significant majority to be convinced otherwise.
