Not looking to do anything major, the only players i have on the block are Iverson, Farmer, and House, looking for some front court depth.


How many basketballs you planning to break out? :P

im not worried at all about ur team ur team is going to have so many chemistry issues its not even funny. How do u think shaq will reacct to coming off the bench, i just dont see him playing hard.

You could say the same thing with iverson on my team, but i still have chalmers to backup nash if i have to put iverson on the injured reserve to avoid any distractions.

So what are you going to tell shaq when he learns he is going to be a back up, i think he would rather retire then become a backup

thats true but none have the personality of Shaq, i think it would be almost better for u to have shaq start and have yao backup as he would be less of a distraction.. just sayin or if u want to trade 1 of them i can offer u eddie "the brick" house

FYI guys, you're going to have about a 3 days from the end of the draft to make any trades/acquisitions you want to make. We'll call it Saturday at noon, shall we?

After that, three days for a write-up and judging the three days after that.

as far as the playoff tree, I'm going to set it up as a bracket using the your 1st round pick year. So 97 will face 08, 98 07, 99 06, 00 05, 01 04, 02 03. This is based off the first you were assigned, not off any trades.

Anyone else find it funny that Vintage felt the need to cover his ass by putting my name in there? My reputation precedes me.

Get off your high horse, I only added you in the unfortunate case I get F***d in the draft order(which seems to happen more often than not, i.e building a team with Paul Pierce as your no. 1 pick) :lol:

ha. right.

Need I remind you that just for the right to play your weak ass half of the bracket in the last game I played I had to go through the three best players in the league? Freakin DCash got to the finals on your side. Ridiculous.

blackice it look like its me and u in the first round, ur going to wish u had never started the trash talk, looks like theres going to a first round exit by you, as all the trades in the world wont help you even be competitieve against me

Game1-136-94 (I'll take it easy on you the first game)
Game 2-148-102 (My team is pissed they didnt reach 150)
Game 3- 147-98 (Damn Deron Will. fouling Kobe on the inbounds so we couldnt get the 3 off to make it 150)
Game 4- 151-95(No defence on either side but we give u a royal a$$ kicking)

Hoffa in 4...btw this is not my writeup

Brackets:
1. Bness
12. MK
6. Poopdamoop
7. Blazer

2. Hoffa
11. BlackIce
5.DCash
8. SS

3. Denied
10. KGB
4. Mascot
9. Bryant

Consider team chemistry, gameplan, match-ups on offense and defense, etc.

NOTE: When the trading period has ended, all rosters must be posted and complete on the rosters thread. A mod will be locking it at that point and anyone you do not have listed CANNOT BE USED in the game. Additionally, I will be penalizing you for inaccuracies on your rosters as far as personnel goes.

Will we be allowed to cut players and sign someone that went undrafted?
