Why?

Last year I got Chris Paul with the 23rd pick.

Maybe you should move down.

Tim Duncan, Kobe

</div>

Tim Duncan is very possibly going to be available with your pick. Do your own mock and see where you put him.
</div>

Guess not?

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (User01 @ Jul 26 2008, 10:16 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>does injury-pronenocity matter in this?</div>

Not necessarily, no. But remember that your peers will be voting for the teams they think would make the playoffs/championship. So, if you have a team filled with all injury-prone guys, someone could easily say: "They won't stay healthy for the entire year, so that team won't make the playoffs as a result, etc" It's okay to take one or two guys who might have had a few injury plagued seasons, but I wouldn't fill a roster with them.

You can just type ly_yng in the Recipient's Name box.

Haha, Vince Carter. EPIC.

Deron and Roy should go sooner rather than later.


Gerald Wallace FEAR.
 
This is taking a lot longer for drafting than I expected. 12 rounds will take long. Couldn't we say something like next saturday at 3 PM Eastern time everyone must be online. If not then drop out and 1 of the 4 people on the replacement list will get their spot? A limit of 20 minutes per pick.

Otherwise 12*30 = 360 picks. 360 picks taking an average of 3 hours per pick + sleep time when no one picks (9 hour range) 1080 hours / 15 hours per day of picking time. That's looking at 72 days to get this done.

</div>

Haha, the funny thing is you`re only the 9th pick. You are going to have to wait a much longer time to get to 52nd.
 
I'll be interested in seeing how high the Blazers go this time. Who was it who picked Greg Oden in the first round last time, just to see him get injured while the draft was still going on?

Talk about un-drafted players, you shall not. It ruins the fun when someone unexpected drops.
 
^^ huh we can't talk about undrafted players? What are we supposed to do during the 72 days of drafting?

You're not supposed to talk about them. Ruins the fun, so to speak.

And it won't take that long. It'll pick up quickly and the time interval to pick decreases in the later rounds.
 
Because you remind someone about a player they might have forgot, and there goes our steal.

It'll be a month before I pick second round.
 
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (User01 @ Jul 27 2008, 12:04 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>might wanna edit your quote JCB</div>

I will, but it's not really a concern with the big time guys; everybody knows the superstars and they're pretty hard to forget. It's in the 3rd and 4th round were some crucial guys fall a lot further than they should because people forget about them.
 
It isn't even August and Summer League games are over.

What else is a basketball junkie going to do to pass the time? It is ok that it takes some time
 
hi guys im looking for an early-mid second round pick

I have the 54 in the second round and 67 in round 3

PM me for proposals.
 
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Claud @ Jul 27 2008, 12:24 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>We seriously need to speed this thing up.</div>

No we don't. I personally have done this for the past three years now, and this is fine. It goes relatively fast. Believe me. It's only been one day anyway.

We all know you meant to say Foyle.

I dunno, but I imagine the karma gods are probably smiling on him this year...

CK had Wade ahead of KG anyway on the list he sent me.
