D-League Fantasy Draft Thread. DRAFT COMPLETE. YAHOO UPDATED

[DRK]

RealGM Suns D-League
there will be a few posts in a row here with different information

Draft Start Time
approximately 11AM EST on 11/29
the draft will start on the forum even if all haven't registered for the Yahoo league by that time

Time Limit per Pick
8 hours per pick, although people with back to back picks will only be alloted 8 hours as well.

REMINDER: if you know you'll be unavailable due to sleep, work, etc, and your pick is coming up you are encouraged to give someone a list of your choices in order (you can always PM them to a mod, or I know some people can text each other etc), so they can announce your pick and keep the draft going.

Draft Order
This is a snake draft, so the first round goes by the order below, and for the second round the order reverses and so on. Here is the final randomized draft order for this year's D-League.

4. JDiddy701

Trade Market
The trade market is a little noticeboard for the league indicating what each team would like in a trade. Post your wants/needs in the thread, and I will update the "Trade Market Post." This is just a little tool which would make trading easier for the league's participants.

Mitch820:
sunskerr: looking for a point guard. Willing to trade Andray Blatche, and others

Official Trade Annoucements


Trade Rules
-trades may be made anytime, starting even before the draft begins
-once a pick is on the clock it can no longer be traded
-each side needs to send the same number of picks (1 for 1, 2 for 2, etc)

[DRK]

This thread is for draft selections and discussion relating to the D-League

We'll start the soft clock at 11AM EST on 11/29, so in roughly 18 hours. Mitch820 will be on the clock at that time (he can make the pick early if he wants to, the clock still wouldn't start until tomorrow and would still be not a hard per-pick deadline (the point being, we'll make sure nobody is going to get skipped the first round!)

Yeah!! 1st pick . Ill make the pick probably in the next few hours.

[sunskerr]

2nd is great.

What's our league I.D. and all that? First season and I'm kind of not sure how this is working. Do we declare the players we're drafting here? Then the league is created and we make our teams and such?

Edit: just read that the draft starts on the forum. thanks

I would also like to know this

Generally the league commish sets up the league at yahoo fantasy sports.

He'll then PM you league ID and password with a link to join - be aware that you'll need a yahoo login to sign up.

You go ahead and post picks in this thread and the running list at the top of page 1 will get updated (or you can quote the post and keep the running list current).

Once the draft is complete, the commish will enter the results into the league and you'll be ready to roll.

[KopLegend]

thanks for setting it up DRK

[DRK]

Guys I've PM-ed the League details to Miklo. Included is the League ID, and the Password. Join up using an account on YahooFantasySports.

Feel free to discuss trades and stuff in this thread.(As well as make your picks of course) Once a trade is agreed upon, please PM one of the mods so that they can PM me to update the Trade Noticeboard.

Dont worry about the yahoo part of the fantasy game yet. I'll update it as the draft progresses.

[nevetsov]

Sounds like it would be much easier if they just made you a Mod, DRK

[DRK]

But then I would have to work with MIKLO.....

[Miklo]

Lookin good DRK, thanks for stepping up

Raff has been edited in. Our league is now with 10 people. Not bad at all.

If you are wondering, "Miami4Life" is my mate from school, who was pretty keen to join a league. Being the idiot he is, he just jumped on the Heat bandwagon last summer. He thinks Steve Nash is a whore, and complains that the refs are "biased against the Heat." Flame away boys. Flame Away!

[mirv]

Soooooooo.

With the 1st pick, I take......



The Durantular himself.

Someone needs to take Wade at 8 so he gets stuck with Bosh at 9

[sunskerr]

EDIT: What the heck. 2nd pick, first round draft: I draft the best player in the league. Lebron James
