Basketball
Draft a team of basketball legends, then see if your team can win a 64-team tournament.
How many players?
There are 64 teams, and computer coaches fill every open spot. Each team drafts a PG, SG, SF, PF, C and a sixth man. A player fills only his own position, so a SG can only play SG, and anyone can be the sixth man.
The draft has 6 rounds, and the order snakes. You have 30 seconds per pick, or the best available player is taken for you.
Every player has 5 ratings from 20 to 99, built from his real career stats: 2-Point, 3-Point, Ball Handling, Rebounding and Defense. Threes go against the other team's Defense and swing hot or cold. Twos go against Defense and Rebounding and are steady. Rebounding goes head to head, and Ball Handling boosts your scoring.
Teammates help each other. Two players from the same real team add +2 to every team rating, three add +4, four add +7, and five or more add +11. The boost shows in green.
After the draft, teams are seeded 1 to 16 in four regions. Win 6 straight games to become champion.
Every finished game, ranked by how far the team went. New results can take a few minutes to appear.
