Beginning of september sounds great IMO.

Thanks KalElen...Here's the deal for me:

I simply can't be the commissioner this season, as I am finishing up a doctoral dissertation, comprehensive exams, etc. etc. I appreciate you staying on as commish for this last season.

I have to say, though, that I DO like the idea of going "Dynasty" now. I think it makes things easier, and if I were to take over as Commish now, I would have simply made it Dynasty...but as I said, this season I'm really too busy.

BTW, sticking with this season's rules, here is my team and my keepers (in red) and my potential keepers (in blue)

Marcus Camby
Baron Davis
Jason Richardson
Al Thornton
Zach Randolph
Ray AllenZydrunas Ilgauskas
Luke Walton
Derek Fisher
DeShawn Stevenson
Jason Williams
Joe Smith
Devin Brown
Stromile Swift
Damon Stoudamire

Everyone is available.

You just made those words up. Nice try pal, but this guy's not falling for it.

You're right, I'm actually going into a witness relocation program and so being commish could be problematic.

I also like the whole dynasty idea.

I'll add more later but I'm on vacation right now until about the 10th so I'll be posting a lot more when I get back.

I'm looking to trade Andrew Bogut+Devin Harris for one player.

Also Harris is available for an upgrade in picks after the lottery is determined.

___________________________________________________________________________________

upcoming events:

keepers have to be announced by midnight sunday 24.8.

around 1.9. draft will begin

if anyone doesn't agree with these dates he can post here

Post #196 » by **Young_Star11** » Fri Aug 1, 2008 10:23 am

Is it alright if we do the draft lottery a little earlier? I'm just excited to be in the league and am itching to find out!

Post #197 » by **Curtis Lemansky** » Fri Aug 1, 2008 11:20 am

Yeah if we can get draft lottery done a little bit earlier(dynasty voting too) then I'd be more happy as well since it creates a nice space for trading picks/keepers etc.

KalElen · Post #198 » by **KalElen** » Fri Aug 1, 2008 12:15 pm
