I would say toward the end of the July - or basically when most Free Agents have signed.

Gotta be careful not to start too early as there's not much point starting with another free agency period.

No dibs.

usually the commish will start a new game and give high finishing returning GM's 1st choice, then will open to others. Usually returning GM's that stuck it out the entire game (most did last game!!) get guaranteed spots before new GM's are taken, usually teams will be available, so I am pretty sure if 48_7 is active he will see when it opens

You only had 26 GMs in the last game, so there should be a few spots open. It's unlikely that all posters from the last game will be available for this game or willing to do it. I'm excited for the opportunity, but hope I don't get stuck with a crappy situation, like Toronto for example.

LOL I was also thinking of dibs on Miami. I would like them with or without LeBron. Would also dig on giving OKC a try.

FWIW - I don't see us getting dibs on anyone til the game is ready to roll and that shouldn't happen til after FA is completed.

I wouldn't want a team with just the start players and filler. As a Blazer fan, I'd prefer the Blazers, but would love to have the Magic, Bulls, Thunder, or Jazz. I'm big on defensive and young talent.

If there's going to be a new trade game, I'd like to join. Finally in a stretch of extended holidays so would be able to participate on a regular basis.

Are we really claiming teams already?

Fine, I'll take Sacramento

I think it is just a couple of people getting overly excited.

BarnesTheSavior · Post #17 » by **BarnesTheSavior** » Thu Jul 8, 2010 6:42 pm

Just in case not,

I'll gladly take Memphis or Toronto.

Well i got Dibs on Portland...

48_7 · Post #19 » by **48_7** » Thu Jul 8, 2010 7:23 pm

I've got Orlando if we are claiming teams and uh, I can have them. But I don't think we're claiming teams right now.

We're not picking teams right now. We have no commissioner lined up or anything yet.
