The Flagrant 2’s 2016–2017 NBA League Pass Draft
With the dog days of Summer rearing it’s ugly head again, the Flagrant 2 decided to strap on their fan hats and compete in their inaugural League Pass Draft. As a duo, we wanted to create a little fun to how we would share the League Pass subscription this year and thought that having a Draft is the best way. With two of us covering all 30 teams, we believe that readers will get a better understanding of the Flagrant 2 and what separates us from each other in terms of basketball fandom. Also, we cannot make ridiculous claims to the fans of the Orlando Magic or the Phoenix Suns if we ourselves do not watch the games and just watch tapes or read box scores.
The Rules of the League Pass Draft is as follows:
- Each team will be taken, and the owner of said team must watch at least 3–4 games per month of that Team.
- The Showman has the Boston Celtics due to city restrictions
- Nigel has the Brooklyn Nets and New York Knicks due to city restrictions
- Since no one wants to watch the Nets, Nigel received the first two picks of the League Pass Draft
- The Showman received the remaining three teams to make sure both have 15 Teams to watch
With that being said, here are the rosters of the 2016–2017 League Pass Draft:
Nigel
- Nets, Knicks, Warriors, Thunder, Bulls, Jazz, Pacers, Blazers, Cavs, Clippers, Nuggets, Pelicans, Lakers, Hawks & Heat
The Showman
- Celtics, Timberwolves, Bucks, Spurs, Wizards, Suns, Pistons, Rockets, Magic, Raptors, Hornets, Mavericks, Grizzlies, Kings and Sixers
