It's an "announcement" at the top.

oh wow. my eyes just tuned out that top announcement panel completely. On the warriors forum we never use them, so all the threads are always in the main part of the forum view.

Why does it feel like WB is running the league now?

I like this trade for both teams. Blake gets the better player, but WB adds an asset (in the first rounder) and in Lawson adds a guy who could step into the void eventually to be left by Billups.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. I'm not winning this year, obviously, but Lawson should be good in a year or two. I'm also high on Louis Williams...so we'll see how it turns out for us.

Good trade for WB! Lawson will be a player when Billups leaves.

You know, I have to say, I wasn't so sure...giving up Louis Williams. He single-handedly kept me in the top 3 of the league for the first part of the season. He was even ranked the top player in fantasy on Yahoo for the months of Nov and Dec...but like I said, I'm not winning this year, so I'll wait on Lawson to take over for Billups in a few years.

Lou's impact will be greatly decreased with the emergence of Jrue Holiday and the addition of Evan Turner -- so I think that's a great move trading him.

Ok guys, I have to shed a few contracts, as I've got 3 draft picks, and I'd like to use at least 2 of them. I'm looking to do a 2 for one, and I'll probably over pay to get it done..

The only guys who I would probably reserve as "you have to pay a premium for" are Ty Lawson, Marcus Thornton, and Eric Gordon

PG Ramon Sessions
SG Ty Lawson
G Marcus Thornton
G Eric Gordon
SF Nick Young
PF Emeka Okafor
F Ron Artest
F Al Harrington
C Greg Oden
C Channing Frye
BN Al Thornton
BN Vince Carter
BN Carl Landry
BN Richard Hamilton
BN Leandro Barbosa

picks 10, 15, 23

Pick #9 is available for a future first. Preferably 2012.

Verify, 2013 picks are not available for trade until after the draft?
