mjdgoldeneye Posted October 20, 2007 Share Posted October 20, 2007 I have a friend who would like to join. I'll sign him up, and if you want to delete him because of an odd number or whatever, you can. We should get 1-3 more people... He'll be "Gman All-Stars".

nZane Posted October 21, 2007 Author Share Posted October 21, 2007 MJD's friend makes 11 and Masterded is 12. I think that will make a good number, so we'll call it a league with that. Once Masterded gets signed up, I'll go ahead and use [URL="http://www.random.org/"]Random.org[/URL] to fire up the draft order, and we'll be set!

mjdgoldeneye Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 Yay! We have 12! Me and my friend are general sports fans and know who's good and such in the NBA in general, but we aren't stat junkies like we are in football, so expect us to be active, but our drafts may appear rookie-ish... (No Amani-Toomer-Is-Awesome-Says-Mach type of stuff, but close! :D) EDIT: Also, 3rd Pick SHA!!!! I'm-a take Stephon Marbury because his shoes are teh ghetto! :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoisonedSuperman Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 Are we doing a snake draft or the same number in each round? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nZane Posted October 21, 2007 Author Share Posted October 21, 2007 Snake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHaynes23 Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 Well, I'll take 12, because that means I'll get 13, so I'll get two good players, just not any superstars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bookerman Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 So who is going #1-#5? I ask b/c I'm #6 and will be auto drafting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjdgoldeneye Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 Well, IDK if giving away your strategy is a good idea, but expect the "Big 3" (IMO, at least) to go. This year that seems to be LeBron, Kobe, and Garnett, in no particular order. Also, Guys like Dirk Nowitzki, Shawn Marion, and Gilbert Arenas to go quick. Always keep note that there isn't an high number of great centers out there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nZane Posted October 26, 2007 Author Share Posted October 26, 2007 Just wanted to remind everyone that the Live Draft is tomorrow (Saturday) at 5:30pm CDT (6:30pm EDT). Yahoo recommends anyone who is planning on being there to show up a few minutes early, since the draft will start promptly. Once again, I'd recommend anyone who doesn't plan on being there to set your draft order beforehand. If not, you'll draft off of the default Yahoo rankings which are... fickle, to say the least.

bookerman Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 I can't be there, but I'm going to at least exclude some guys I don't want for various reasons....Kidd, Vince C, Rashard Lewis, and others. That way, even if my team sucks, I won't have guys I don't like/want on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masterded Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 3 hours and 40 min to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masterded Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 Damn I can't draft live today (I am at work and have a good firewall). So I just edited my draft list. Have fun guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallbanger Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 My rankings are updated, though I am likely not going to be online for the draft. Apologies for the the slowdown, though a live draft isn't so bad since there's only a couple of minutes on the clock each. With a 2 pick I should have at least one stud worth following (of course all the Stephen Jackson owners said that too!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubernoob Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 I'll be there... Picking #1 :) Of course there is always the downside to that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHaynes23 Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 I'll be there, and I've got the 12 pick, so my fate pretty much rests on who you guys miss when you are drafting. I can't do much planning since I'm the last to pick, so I'll just have to wing it, but I'm confident in my abilities. This sort of thing is what I'm in college to get my degree in, so I better be half way decent at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjdgoldeneye Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 So, exactly how early can you open the draft window? And, who's going 1st and 2nd? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
