Nobody took a chance on Giddey. Let's see if he keeps up with the current pace, he'll be a wanted commodity in the "replacement draft"

That’s # 1 on my list right now.

Losing Banchero for 4-6 sucks, but at least he’ll be back. He was putting up MVP type numbers. Crazy.

As intended Wemby pick was easy to build around and allowing me to put Towns at PF, and that spacing made Butler at SF work, leading to pretty well rounded top 7 of Garland/White/Butler/Towns/Wemby/Mobley/FVV. But I think at the end of the day people will trust other superstars more. Still, it's better than having Embiid.

The inevitable Cade injuries are starting to set in. :(

We'll have the replacement round this weekend. I'll have the details up either tonight or tomorrow.

Do we need to decide whether to participate in the replacement draft or not?

It's optional, if you don't want any replacements you can state it here or pass once the draft has started.

Lillard/Holiday/Durant/Giannis/Porzingis is nice.
