I tried to trade with him too, and he was pretty stoked on keeping Wiggins...

[jfrost]

Fair enough... I will probably just pick then.

[OldNo7]

Keepers: Parker, Westbrook, Thompson, Lee, Valanciunas

I think we need better direction here guys. I don't see a protected list, didnt see a date when they were due, no date listed of draft start times....come on you cant just wing it

[Hawk Eye]

Not participating in the game but just stopped by to say we are starting a new GMAT game on the T&T Games board that is really fun. We need 5-10 more players. The thread to sign up in is titled "Summer League Part 2 Sign-Ups"

The game is a lot of fun and I promise you anyone who plays will enjoy it!

[sabonis]

what is our pick time limit?

[curtisenbarger]

Hi guys,

I am replacing Curtis from last year. Funny as we practically have the same name. I posted my keepers before but I will post them again as I am open to trade offers.

Keepers:
Blake Griffin
Rudy Gay
Kawhi Leonard
Dwight Howard
Eric Bledsoe

I know that I am new, but in the future, having a scheduled draft day(s) and being notified about the date at least a few days in advance works best for me. I appreciate you having me and I look forward to a lot of fun.

Thanks,
Curt

Pick #3 is on the block. Send you offers to jeremy @ moviemarbles.com ASAP. If I cannot get a deal struck in the next few hours, I will make my selection.

Question for BWW - If I trade my pick for a player, I assume that this player falls outside of my 5 keepers?

That's because I haven't asked for a list yet. And the draft start has been up on the page for about three days now.

I don't think we need a list of keepers until the rookie draft is over. I mentioned that last week in the thread.

If everyone will just keep checking in every other day of so, and read the updates on the thread, I think we'll be fine.

Hmmmmm, good question. How do you think that should work?

On the one hand, we could say if you trade a pick for a player, you have to include that player as a keeper to keep him, so he takes one of your 5 spots.

On the other hand, we could say the player you picked acts like the drafted rookie, and thus essentially creates a 6th keeper for you.

Thoughts everyone?

I prefer the second...
The player you picked acts like the drafted rookie, and thus essentially creates a 6th keeper for you. This could potentially change the direction if I trade #3 or not. When can we make a call by?

[bww78]

Right now. We'll go with the second option.

One last question for BWW. I had $180 left over after last season... Does that give me $180 for this years auction style draft?

Fran, I will get back to you on your offer once BWW has confirmed my question.

he already replyed 2 pages back

[fraanciiscoo]

From the original rules posted last year...

Unused cash may be carried over to subsequent drafts. But, unused cash will NOT be applicable to waiver wire pick-ups, which will have its OWN budget on Yahoo.

So, if I understand correctly, everyone gets $100 each season for the auction. If you have cash left over from the previous year, it adds to your $100. So I would have $180 to spend this draft ($100 this year plus $80 from last year).

Thanks Jeremy. That is correct.

So we have to go back to last season's draft for carryover amounts, not the waiver wire budget.

[fraanciiscoo]

wait so the money we didn't spend during the season doesn't carry over to the off-season draft?

Correct.

[jfrost]

Trade to announce:

Fran trades Chris Paul
Jfrost trades Dwill + $30 + #3

Chris Paul becomes my 6th keeper as per the new rule. I now have $150 for the auction draft.

Lebron James
Chris Paul
Chandler Parsons
Andre Drummond
Josh Smith
Kyle Lowry
