I don't understand it either. WB too did this type of trades with Fran.

You're currently on the clock, Fran.

believe me he knows and he's using all 8 hours to work up a deal with someone...

this is getting out of hand very early this year. In the last 4 days we are only averaging 5.5 picks per day... Just because of working out deals on the clock, we'll need to cut everyone's time to 6h instead of 8h, pretty soon. Maybe we should implement that immediately.

You're right, Sabonis. And believe it or not, I just made a deal with him, but negotiations didn't took long. Fran's a serious bargainer.

Moose trades: 52, 115, 149
Francisco trades: 46, 142, 166

No we really don't. We started a week later last season and we still finished on Oct 13. There's this panic about the pace every single year, and it's always a false alarm.

Forgot to ask this earlier, but do we have IR spots?

Post #209 » by **floppymoose** » Mon Sep 12, 2016 10:04 am

No IR. We could add one though, because yahoo now supports IL roster spots for basketball:

No joke there, you are getting pretty heavily shafted here.

Last 4 days 5.5 picks per day, if the pace doesn't go up, we are looking at 43 days to finish the draft.
Also, some people are carrying others in terms of time. For example even if I by myself go for full 8 hours average instead of 1 hour, that would push the draft a whopping 3.5 days.

I'm looking to deal 54, let me know if you are interested.

AlciG · Post #213 » by **AlciG** » Mon Sep 12, 2016 11:46 am

Pretty hefty price to pay to move up 6 spots

just because you had a great deal from me doesn't mean everyone will get the same deal :lol:

by the way I'm not arguing against how bad that trade is for Mooose, because it is a pretty bad one.

ok lets check the trade that was done before

abonis trades: 43, 83, 118
alcig trades: 56, 65, 105

the difference between the #43 and the #46 is 3 spots
you gave a mid #60 + earlly 100´s

he gave late jumps
what is better? it deppends there are guys you prefer late jumps there are guys that prefer litle jumps in early stages
he keep his #69 pick
+ Love fits perfect with PaulG and KlayT

Moooose · Post #216 » by **Moooose** » Mon Sep 12, 2016 12:13 pm

By the way my picks and trades are being reviewed, I think I am losing early on pretty badly.

AlciG · Post #217 » by **AlciG** » Mon Sep 12, 2016 12:16 pm

I don't care one way or the other... My draft was screwed from the get go. I was unprepared and then came up with a plan but after our trade didn't happen at the last hour I didn't have a backup plan.

I'm pretty much screwed so I might as well shoot for the fences...

abonis trades: 43, 83, 118
alcig trades: 56, 65, 105

Moose trades: 52, 149, 115
Francisco trades: 46, 142, 166

from this prespective ok ...
I m sure he was not unhappy with the deal neither i m

It is 43 for 56, 13 spots not 3 spots pal :wink:

Btw N Jokic was the guy i was Looking but he only was C eligible
and I already have Horford and KP and didnt want 3 (PFC PFC C) bc I could get others latter and dont have space for them
Malone also worries me a bit and i couldnt pull the trigger
Love was kind of safe bet
I had a 8 players list that I could go and had 100% sure that Love was going via trade, no clue with the new guy pick, 3si was going to pick in the 3rd year in row Dirk there was no doubt in my mind. . . maybe i could get NJ with the #52 i couldnt no problem i have a B plan thats why i trade for
