1980 Creation Draft Lottery Show

[RPF]

And the 12th pick goes to... the Chicago Bulls! Make it a good one, guys - don't wanna be a jive turkey with this pick!

Pick 11 in the creation draft is going to the Indiana Pacers. Hopefully this reset will be different for the Pacers. Actual championships and no more Sim 1 championships

The top 10 picks are sponsored by

[RPF]

And we're finally in the top ten! Pick number 10 goes to... the San Antonio Spurs! Let's see if they can draft a player who's actually worth a damn!

[Eazy P]

Pick 9 in the creation draft is going to the Washington Bullets.

[RPF]

Hold on to your hats, folks! The 8th pick goes to... the Cleveland Cavaliers! Let's see if they can make some magic happen! (Doubtful)

[Eazy P]

Pick 7 in the creation draft is going to the Kansas City Kings

[Eazy P]

Now this brings us to the top 6 teams

Rockets
Supersonics
San Diego Clippers
Phoenix Suns
Utah Jazz
Warriors

[RPF]

Whoa, heavy situation here! Pick 6 belongs to the Utah Jazz, but word on the street is Xist2Inspire got played by drkavarga! This pick's got some serious drama behind it!

[Eazy P]

Whoa.....that means the Suns are in the Top 5 with making the 1st ever trade in the new league. Let's see how this unfolds. Should Xist have put and X on this trade? We will find out but after this exclusive trailer. Top 5 Picks are sponsored by: Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back

Pick 5 in the creation draft is going to the San Diego Clippers. Congrats to JNR returning at the right time to get a top 5 pick.

[RPF]

Alright, Seattle Supersonics, you're back! Don't make us regret this! You've got the 4th pick, so no pressure or anything. Just, you know, the future of your franchise rests on this decision...

[Eazy P]

Pick 3 in the creation draft is going to the Golden State Warriors.

[Eazy P]

Holy Shit top 2 picks are left between the Rockets and recently traded Suns

[RPF]

And the 2nd pick goes to... the Houston Rockets! Man, drkavarga's got all the luck in the world! Hope he gives something to Xist2Inspire since he's such a good dude about that trade.

[Eazy P]

So that means the Number 1 overall pick goes to the Phoenix Suns. The trade James made has to be the greatest trade in Suns history. The previous two owners are probably kicking themselves for trading that team away and quitting after 2061 not knowing things will fall in place in 1980 for a HOF talent. James must have prayed at the bar as he watched the Browns lose while drinking his glass of wine. Any way Congrats to James for keeping the Messi Suns tradition of #1 picks alive even during the reset.

Ok, this article was outstanding when it came out. IT was also a pain to review for points, but totally worth it with the various call backs to the 1980s with the photos and everything. I truly enjoy these types of articles, as do I think everyone else does. This is truly something I think, as far as engagement, that the league has been missing for a while and is so great to see the enjoyment come back to not only you two, but also to me looking forward in the moment to reading an article. I hope to see more from you two in the future adding commentary
