Ham sends theman his 2016 2nd.
Theman sends Wilson Chandler.
Ham drops Andray Blatche.

Ham will be dropping Blatche picking up Bogdanovic and trade him to me for Chandler.

Whats with the trade wait times? These seem to be pending for ever! You might have been better off just dropping Chandler and having Ham pick him up after he cleared waivers tomorrow.

You are probably right. Is our wait time always so long?

Yes, they've always been 2 days. Gives us time to vote on trades and sort out issues if anything comes up. Waiver time stays the same too - 1 day.

I suspect anything shorter than 2 days and veto-worthy trades would get through.

Ham and I did our trade on Saturday. Shouldn't it appear in my lineup on Tuesday not Wednesday?

Guess that's right but it seems long.

Any how, considering where I was picking I am very happy with how the draft went. I was planning all along to get Bogdanovic in the second round. I was afraid his performance in the World Championships would draw unwanted (by me) attention to him. He will be vieing for a starting gig in Bkn so should produce right away.

I really like Gordon as well. He just needs to fix his shot which it sounds like he is.

I'll pick up Tyson Chandler once East drops him for Napier.

We had our draft way too early. I hate this wait. Yahoo should have a fantasy preseason. The games wouldn't count against the season but you can evaluate your talent, get exited about camp players who will end up getting zero minutes in the league.

lol .. I love this idea! Floppy, please start work on this ASAP!

We can do this unofficially in roto format though .. if someone wants to do the work of setting up a google doc with all the teams.

last two picks timed out and get forfeited. FA now opens up in the league. If you haven't processed your add/drops for the draft, please do so now to avoid any confusion.

Can you please reset the waiver priority now that the draft is complete? I assume I should have the #1 spot since I ended the season in last place.

If I recall, in years past it has been the opposite. The person with the last pick gets top waiver priority to balance things out.

Don't know what to think of my chances this year. 4-peat seems unlikely. But I think I still make the playoffs.

Unless you pull and east/Cfan you will make the playoffs.

we will see if my team can keep the streak alive. We probably shouldn't have made the playoffs last season but, you know.
