:rockon:

When the draft is completely done, I will move to make the teams as soon as I can, so expect your rosters filled soon. No need to do anything really except make your last pick if you haven't been up yet.

While we wait some days for the first matchup on Oct. 28th, and as most of you already know, the post-draft league will let us..
set roster lineup(s) already,..
start doing trades or trade talks,..
and play around with adding intriguing free agents during these Preseason games.






Only one thing left though, everyone must send me a good link for the Magic preseason games :lol:



Great work running this thing dsg! You were all over it, with updates for everyone who was up next. We really smashed through this draft a lot faster than I thought we would.

Thanks for taking all the time, you're a champ.

Ditto! The constant updating was much appreciated dsg!

So, do the player slotted into UTIL have their stats ALWAYS count, no matter what? So, essentially, on any given night, you have a PG, SG, SF, PF, C + 2 more players in UTIL, totaling 7 players every night?

Is that how it works? Ans bench is for when your other player isn't playing that night of if one player gets injured. Correct?

Yea, we actually have 2 PG spots, 2 SG, 2 SF, 2 PF, and 2 C spots. Thats 10.

Then the 2 UTILITY spots also count every night, and can be any position. So that's 12 spots now that count every night.

What you said about the Bench is 100% right. Players in Bench don't count, which is perfect for injured players and players not playing that night.

In addition, it is best to rest players on back to backs to ensure they put in a solid game against tougher opponents.

Wait...so there are TWO slots for ever position + 2 UTIL? It's not 5 players plus 2 UTIL?

Yep, two slots for every position + 2 utility.

The Yahoo! League teams are all up and running! :rock:

You need to move the schedule to tomorrow, Oct. 9th, or later, to see your full rosters.

I highly recommend the Yahoo! Fantasy Basketball app for Mobiles/Tablets. Very useful and convenient!



- The waiver order is based on the reverse draft order.
When you use your priority grab on a player successfully, you go back to 14th/14 priority until someone else uses their waiver priority and moves you back up one spot (again).
Remember, even late priorities like the 14th waiver priority are successful when all the other teams are waiting for a player to pass through the 2 day waiver wire and become a truly free agent instead.

- The matchups schedule is finalized also, and is based on the Y!'s randomize button, on only one click.
Cheers!

Steven Adams in Friday's game against Mavs: 28 minutes, 19 points on 8-9 FG, 5 rebounds, 4 steals, and 3 blocks.

So glad I picked him up!

For real though, you should be fine. All three are short term injuries.

I am shopping Doug McDermott, who is having a great and efficient preseason, just started last game too.
And I'm also shopping Thunder players Anthony Morrow and Jeremy Lamb, my two sleepers who just looked even better with KD's injury today.

I need an older veteran who is more proven than youngsters. (Or Aaron Gordon!)

Teague / Jennings / Wroten / Jack
Beal / Burks / B Gordon
Gay / Turner / Casspi
Drummond / Hickson / NeNe
Howard / Sullinger

Not that I'm looking to trade but my team is always up for trade for fair value in return.

Anyone looking to grab Reggie Jackson off me? He should blow up and play well in the absence of KD but I want to get away from having 2 thunder back court players since I already have Russ.

Also, I will shop McGee if anyone is looking for a big and needs blocks/rebounds.

Looks like Lin will be starting over the brittle Steve Nash as I predicted. That pick became even more of a steal now.

I'm interested in McGee. Want anyone from my squad?
