When I first noticed this site I immediately fell in love with your guy's dynasty stories. I'm planning on being a journalist for a job and i thought this would be great writing experience. So here goes.
I simmed a fantasy draft to make things interesting. Quick post of the rosters, major players only.

New Trailblazers GM interviewed by the Oregonian.
Smith (Journalist): What convinced you to want to come out of retirement to general manage in the NBA?
Holton (gms names): I've always wanted to. Since leaving the NBA I've been spending a lot of time with my kids but now they're all grown up and don't need me around the house. I figured I might try getting a managing or coaching job then having to go out and find a real one (laughs)
Smith: There were rumors going around you were looking into coaching ncaa ball, fact or fiction?
Holton: Fact, actually. College ball has always fascinated me, hence me staying all 4 years back in the day instead of making the leap to the pros. I just prefer it over the pros. But... and there is a but, I just don't have the right skill to coach. I'm just not one for speeches, tactics, or any other basic skills you need for coaching.
Smith: Who do you think your biggest competion is in the Northwest Division.
Holton: I won't kid you and say "they're all great teams". Definitely the Nuggets, Brand and Wallace proved to be a great combo last year. We'll do our best to meet them with courage when we do. Were not going to underestimate anyone this year.
Smith: As we all know the center position is in dire need of strengthening, no offense to Vlade but he's getting old. Any centers look good?
Holton: I'll tell you when I find them (laughs)

End of any racist discussion.
