Just a heads up, I'll be looking for some help tonight at 10 PM EST if somebody can help run the FFDL lottery (who's not in the league). I'll give instructions closer to.

I'm liking my team, which means they will probably suck.

Uh, you do not have Wes Matthews (I do). You have Wes Johnson I believe.

I can't get away with that?

Matthews has been on my FFDL team for so long I guess it was just force of habit.

No, you can get away with that...that is, if you let me list Aldridge on my team. I usually have him in this league.

We have at least 4-6 hours to wait on Woody. He went to bed after making our trade. Unless someone has a list?

Is anybody around who's not in the FFDL who can run our lottery right now. It will literally take 5 seconds.

I'm not one to strongly believe in the power of contract years but potential + contract year made me pick BG. Before the clash with the coach he was top 125 or something like that so if he 'behaves' he can be top 160, exceeding this draft position by a mile. If not, he was a 235th pick anyway.

To clear confusion, 238 is mine now. I received it along with Rubio and traded Taj Gibson and Holiday away.

Also, I'm still interested in packaging Luke Ridnour with another asset (Kevin Seraphin, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, pick #238) for a player, preferably a forward. Thanks.

Sorry for the wait. I had a crisis of conscience and almost went with someone else, but finally settled on Stephenson. Here's a guy who could take a hit because he's not starting with Granger back, but as the 6th man, or playing with the 2nd unit, I think he improves his numbers. Plus, Granger isn't exactly the portrait of model health either. Most importantly, he averaged a steal a game last year, and will be needed for his lock-down defense. I need to recoup my steals after trading Rubio away.

Now, with the rate we're going, I have at least a week-long wait until my last 3 picks come up. Unless someone wants my last 2-3 (273, 276, 278) picks for one of their picks in the next 20.

I like the Gordon pick. Charlotte doesn't seem to be in tank mode anymore so he could get some PT.
