I will put him on the block right now and I don't think I would get one single offer for him. :lol:


Lol who knows maybe now with free agency movement the offers get better

I think somebody would send you something enticing just to break up curry and Jokic again :lol:


I'll give someone a 24 hour to make a somewhat enticing offer. I will take below market value just to prove a point :lol:

some casual reading before the draft starts. This was the start of the potpourri of 1st...how the tables have turned...some of the comments aged like milk.

I think the deal is if you miss the pick and the next 3 teams pick ahead of you he will then pick for your team from nbadraft.net big board.

You can also send in a preliminary draft board to him of who you would pick just in case

So if you think you might not be on in time to make your pick at 2, you could send him a pm saying "My top 2 are ***** and then ******", and he'll draft whoever is available the highest on your board

Also you're not supposed to say any guy's name who hasn't been drafted yet. So even though I know who the top 2 picks are gonna be, I can't comment on how good I think Mecca's guy is gonna be and how upset I am that I fell all the way to 4 lol.

Correct I forgot to add that no name dropping unti a player is drafted since it could potentially sway a pick.

With the headline of getting Steph back for a chance to run it back again.

Absolutely loved picking up my NY/Pitt guy Champagnie. Had a strong year for Wash and think he fits in to what we are trying to do here. Had to pay up by giving up Wiggins + moving up in the 1st round draft capital but I like the long term fit.

Read on Twitter


He also gave the knicks the business last year.

By the way, Cam Whitmore is available (99/5)

Still young, still good potential.

This is last call on Tobias as I have a deal tentatively agreed to.

He was 23 PPG in the Sim, and in real life, was the No. 2 option on a fiesty Pistons team. Dude is a BAF legend and the reason br7 won a ring years back. It's an expiring deal that allows you to be in BAF FA bananza next year

Breaking News* Brandon Clarke has informed GM Gadfly that he will be willing to waive his NTC and return to SAS...

On a side note, I do think Clarke is going to go back to being his weirdass badass sim self this year though

Appreciate it! None of it matters unless I hit on my picks though. You've been killing it with the retooling too. Steph and Jokic would be too crazy in real life.

Yup, you have done a good job increasing your odds at hits. No one is perfect even the guys that get paid to do this IRL. But getting more swings increases your odds. You don't need everyone to hit even if you get a couple that would be a success.
