I haven't been doing fantasy basketball as long as most of you guys, but have you ever seen a reigning Finals MVP go as low as the 200s? I was wondering for a while if he might go undrafted.

Demarcus/Plumlee/Brandan Wright
Ibaka/Ryan Anderson
Batum/Aminu/Stanley Johnson/Tony Allen
Afflalo/Bradley/Justin Anderson
Brandon Knight/Jeff Teague/Mudiay

Pretty happy. Some key breakout guys, hopefully.

I almost picked him and was thinking the same thing. That's crazy!

I was shocked too. I almost grabbed Iggy a couple rounds earlier than the 200's too, but his FT% is weirdly dropping. Then I was just hoping he'd be at one of my last picks but someone finally nabbed him.

Btw, here's my team, for any potential trade talks:

Kyrie Irving / Ricky Rubio / Rajon Rondo
Bradley Beal / Dwyane Wade / Manu Ginobili
Kawhi Leonard / Tobias Harris / Anthony Morrow
Taj Gibson / Brandon Bass / Channing Frye
Enes Kanter / Timofey Mozgov / Anderson Varejao

Thanks! The key for the season is having a fun active thread throughout the year. I hope to see all of you helping to keep this thread alive. Trash talk, ribbing, and whining about painful losses galore! Plus, I hope to see more trades than we have in the past too!

Overall it ran ok once we figured out TNMF's replacement. Still strange how he just disappeared.

You all did a good job emailing one another too.

...and according to my excel spreadsheets and pie charts there will be some tough competition out there! ah ha

My lineup is in my sig if anyone wants to talk trade and tweak their roster prior to the season starting. No-one's off limits if the deal is right.

Sweet J · Post #414 » by **Sweet J** » Fri Oct 2, 2015 10:43 pm

Yeah as others have said thanks Skin. Looking forward to seeing how each team goes. Thoughts on my team from pick 12?

My team:
PG K. Lowry, T. Lawson, G. Hill, T. Burke
SG K. Thompson, E. Gordon, J. Meeks
SF O. Porter, R. Hood, C. Budinger
PF L. Aldridge, T. Thompson
C A. Jefferson, J. Noah. A. Len

From the other teams I like Magicman123, it has good talent at all the positions with Lillard and the greak freak ready to break out.

Well done, Skin. Such a quick and efficient draft, everything orderly and well handled.

My team is in my sig, for future reference, but here it is. There were a few guys I missed out on in the draft, so I'd definitely be open to trades for them.

C - G.Monroe/Nurkic/J.Hill/Dedmon
PF - K.A.Towns/A.Gordon
SF - P.George/E.Fournier/D.McDermott
SG - J.Butler/N.Stauskas/J.Lamb
PG - E.Payton/D.Rose/J.Calderon

Cheers. I like it on paper. Just don't know how it will mesh together.

How's the Skin Ranking shaping up?

I'm thinking the strong teams, just from the ol' Eye Test, are:

HoraceGrant
Edrock
magicfan4life
stick

they look like the top contenders for 2nd place, to me.

Feeling very disrespected right now. I'll be tweeting a screenshot of this post to all my guys, and expect them to use it as motivation all season long. If Anthony Davis doesn't get pissed off by people doubting his fantasy credentials, then I don't know what to say.

If there was a team that I thought stole a lot of good value that others passed up on it would be your team. It's like, I like every one of your players, but I didn't have the readiness to take them when I was OTC, but when you took them, I was like... Good pick!

You were in a good location in the draft to do that. Picking at the end of the rounds, definitely alters things as I either found myself hoping for a guy to fall with one pick and reaching for a guy with my other pick.
