Dude, if I were you I would be thanking the stars that the no tanking rule wasn't enforced and STFU.

Considering last year it was 8 hours to pick in the 1st round and 6 hours to pick in the 2nd round, I think 12 hours was more than fair. Plus, I've been updating the threads and e-mailing people, just to be safe.

Sorry, it sucks, I know we've been struggling to get everybody signed in and on the same page, BUT, I'm trying my best.

Trade to announce:

The Man Trades CJ McCollum (he will be missed (the next Eric Bledsoe))

Insfo Trades his 2015 second round pick.

Do I need to wait for him to accept or can I post my pick?

To not hold up draft I picked.

Are we supposed to also make the picks in Yahoo?

Accepted. I'll drop Thomas Robinson to make room.

Adding / dropping (in Yahoo) as you draft would be perfect. Thx!

This might be the first rookie/FA draft we've had where the first 12 picks are rookies. Who will be the first non-rookie drafted?

Nobody debated this, and since the 2nd round is usually half-skipped over, just went ahead and did the 2nd-round draft order according to regular season standings.

I'm open to changing it back if it's important enough that you and a few others think it warrants a league vote.

I seem to have gone from have three second round picks to two to one and then that one was later than I thought any of them were so I was a little put off.

I wouldn't mind it going back to the way it was just to give 2nd rounders a little more value (those of good teams anyhow). I guess it would be a pain to have a second lottery for the second round.

I vote for 12 hours both rounds. It's so much easier to keep track of.

What's funny is I thought it already happened. Kohanz wrote his backwards so I thought he had drafted Ray Allen.

I don't know what's more surprising - Caboclo being drafted in the NBA draft, or in the FFDL draft. While I think he has a shot at sticking in the league, this is a pick to be stashed for at least one season.

I idea that you could stash him on the IL for the season makes him more intriguing. But, ultimately, most of us go through a stretch with 2 guys on the IL. Could make for some more difficult decisions when that happens. The moment he hits the floor in scrub time, though... you're locked for 5 games.

Up to 14 now. I'm kinda swinging for the fences this year, trying to retool on the fly while still being a threat. Eventually Duncan and Nowitzki will have to go. But not this year.

Anyone want to send me a 2015 2nd for Marco Belinelli?

stick · Post #134 » by **stick** » Fri Sep 26, 2014 3:02 pm

Sending #17 to insfo for a 2016 2nd

Wilson Chandler is available for a future second rounder.

Post #137 » by **Kohanz** » Sat Sep 27, 2014 2:19 am

I'm going to bed now with the assumption that stick still has 1 more pick. So I have at least until 10:20am tomorrow morning to make my pick.

I think you may have thought wrong. Stick traded one of his two picks to insfo.

Well then none of that was updated...
