Yeah, I told him he wasn't going to get a better offer. I don't screw around - if I have an offer that's good for both parties I just start with it.

I agree, it was a good offer. Just not what I was looking for.

Still looking for those rebounds and blocks. How about Kevin Martin? Anyone interested in him?

Well, looks like it'll be me starting Korver. And I'm 100% fine with that. I never understood the hate for him around here.

I managed to make 2 trades in this league. I think that's an accomplishment.

My first was Harden for Cousins. And I got robbed. Completely robbed. Cousins hasn't been nearly the player I was expecting this year. Too bad for Sacramento fans. I thought he'd take a step up this year.

My 2nd was Gordon and Martin for essentially just the injured Anthony Davis. Probably a huge overpay.

This is what happens when you don't draft any bigs. Or at least not enough bigs. I knew the entire draft I was going to have to make some trades later to balance my team out, but I had no idea just how expensive it was going to be.

Kudos to those that drafted the bigs then forced me over a barrel to get them later. Next year I'll know better.

I'm starting to threaten WB's once insurmountable lead.

Wow, thanks for reminding me. I haven't set my lineups in that league for like 2 months. To think, I was in first all this time even with Afflalo, Rondo, Mullens, and Taj Gibson putting up DNPs for me.

It all comes down to tonight. Pretty amazing in a roto league to have the last game of the season so meaningful, but, here we are, deadlocked in a tie on the last day.

Good luck WB.

Congrats to jazzfan for winning FFRL's inaugural season! Drafting Harden at 23, Lillard at 75, Vucevic at 152, and Drummond at 186 spells VICTORY! Ok, maybe not the Harden part, since he traded him away.

Also congrats to WB for coming extremely close to winning despite leaving 16 games from the guard position completely unused. It turns out that having Kevin Durant in a roto league is good. Who knew?

Meh, I lost on the final night, but led the entire season, sometimes by a large margin, and for at least half the season I forgot to set my lineups...oh, and I lost Rondo, Afflalo, and some other significant guys to season ending injuries. I count that as a win.

Congrats Jazzfan! I haven't checked the league in a while. I thought WB had this wrapped up.

Well, the tank FT% strategy didn't wholly work out. 3rd place is a respectable finish though.

Post #315 » by **jazzfan1971** » Mon Apr 22, 2013 1:11 am

Thanks all. Looking forward to next year as I defend the title.

Let's get a roll call going for next season. I knew jazzfan would be a beast in this because he's such a good drafter, but who is else is in?
