Confirmed. As much as it pains me I'll be dropping Gilbert Arenas


Sly can you please change our rosters to reflect this trade. Otherwise we wont have the correct roster on X-mas day.

Thanks.

Not only that, because of the shortened season, east is the only team you're scheduled to play twice.

once you drafted anderson i realized he had more value than i realized but im not really in the position to be patient with a guy like him. he's not AWFUL in a vacuum but no decision is made in a vacuum imo.

anderson is much better sabermetrically than IRL because he's a terrible fit to any team IRL (meaning he's absurdly overextended in 30+ mpg and will therefore never get 30+ mpg barring a miracle)

lol @ the man talking like he's ever won this league and ever will


Agree about Anderson IRL. He's a stretch 4 and fits in particular team situations. I got him projected around 28 mpg with better than 2 threes per game and around 6 to 7 boards per game. Scoring around the low teens with good ft%. He won't turnover the ball much but won't get you much in steals or blocks. Been following him since he was at Cal. Outside of Kidd and KJ, not many players who went to Cal do well let alone play in the NBA.

decent rosters:

good rosters:

invincibles

my competition:

floppy (how bad is everyone else to let this dude get 5 of the top 10 players in the game?), insfo, east

my window to compete is 3-4 years from now. the dude before me didnt give me much to work with but i've pulled off some amazing trades and now i just wait for the talent to coalesce and let my 1337 managing do its thang

the man shoulda traded his picks because his selections were awful. so were floppy/ham's



So, just clarifying. You will be top 4 this season?

fair enough. i may disagree with your projections but not by much. big baby sucks but the problem is a lot of people don't think he sucks. he'll play too much.

yes plz process our nelson/lee for lopez/2013 2nd trade

willing to trade thaddeus young for 2011 pick (whoever's up) until my guy is off the board

I've been impressed with what I've seen (says the Warrior fan watching NBA TV preseason games from Florida) even though his shots weren't falling. He's a smart player. I liked him enough to take him in the FFL draft. But, as you say, the staff loves him and he'll get playing time.

No one's been doing predictions, so I'l start. East will be the first two-time champion in this league. I peg him for the title again. Floppy in 2nd, Invincibles 3rd. The rest of the playoff teams are mine, AlciG, and either the Man or Kohanz. Lots of rebuilds going on.


I was in need of a swing who can give me some 3's. Hopefully, Monta gets traded soon!

I hope to be the first 2X champion. It took me five years to win one and I think my team has a good balance of young stars and decent prospects.

Lopez injury makes it look like Apathy will follow the Spurs rebuild strategy.

I think the sexual harassment allegation reduces his immediate chances of being traded.

Now it just looks like Craig is having fun with his draft picks. How many tall Euros can he draft? His team is looking like the United Nations and he has Metta World Peace.

'Rules' are posted in the first page of this thread. I don't believe there are any changes to last year, but please let me know if something looks 'off'. Any questions at all about the IL or any other settings, please let us know.
