all fantasy sites got him around 100th pick but I knew he wont last till the end of this round
still
I actually am suprised how it went
and esp AG going as 3rd only

I was sure AG would go
1.AG
2-3-I thought Frounier or Payton wasnt sure on order
and lastly I thought
4.Vuc

ofc fantasy sites got Vuc 1st (out of the said four) and he went 1st still it surprised me...thought would be more of a popularity contest order

You guys proved me wrong :D
i think last year Evan went 1st or 2nd out of our players

I reckon Centers usually go before many due to the Rebounding factor and higher FG%.

He will be if his pick is not made by 12:45. I just did a follow up email to him and will give him a 15 mins.

I think he has a 4 hour clock from the start of 12:00 PM EST, so he wouldn't be skipped until 4:01 PM EST. I'm definitely hoping with the first preseason Magic game later we can all be around and make a nice run on picks.

I thought Aaron was going to go first too. Was squeezing my cheeks that'd he still be there on my turn around pick! I've never owned him in fantasy. Actually, never owned any of the players I drafted this year before. This has been fun pickings so far.

I really liked your Beal pick. I almost took him. Found the pic and all! It was down to him, Hayward and Love. ...and ultimately chose Love because I needed a big man.

If that is really the way we have it set up, it needs to be changed. There's no reason for us to be waiting 8 hours to make a pick.

That's right. The clock only runs for 12 hours during the day. I was trying to be forgiving so that guys weren't on the clock when they were asleep. But it seems like we get big stalls during that time. I'm thinking we start the clock from 6AM EST till 12AM Midnight EST. In the past we had the clock run all around the clock, but at the same time, we had longer clocks. Trying to find the happy medium here.

What's everyone's thoughts on starting the clock from 6AM EST till 12AM Midnight EST?

Yeah, I think that is pretty fair. Half the day just seems to be too much time off. I like the idea of 6am to midnight clocks.

Are you making a trade with Bensational? I have a list from him, but he says, check with you before making his pick for him.

I just saw the Las Vegas news, it's really sad. My prayers to everyone affected by it.

I have emailed him back. Did he give you what later pick he is waiting from me?

No he just said to wait to see if you accept his deal before I post his pick. I figured maybe he's moving up or down or something... so wait for that first.
