Sent a second reminder

I will rejoin if you can't fill the spots. Give everyone a chance though.

Everybody rejoined. Does anyone oppose a draft date for sunday 25th at noon ET?

I would set the keeper deadline three days ahead of the draft. I will check which players are not available to keep anymore and post it here

Just checked:

I can't keep Kemba Walker and Stephen Curry can't be keepered this year. Everyone else is free to go. But remember: Every keeper is slotted one round higher than he was drafted last year. So you can't keep someone who was drafted in the 2nd round if you keep a first rounder as well.

Waiver wire pick ups will be slotted in the 7th round as in previous seasons.

sunday 25th at noon ET is good for me
My team is eligible to keep Kemba Walker in 10th round right?

Yes, that's correct.

2 keepers right ?

Yup.

i would like to be switched to the international division as i am not american

I volunteer to swap with trixster as I'm a U.S. citizen.

Okay, I switched the teams.

And since not all teams set keepers, I did it for them due to the short time and since I don't want teams to exit because they already f*cked up the draft.

I put Vucevic and Faried in for Team Heisenberg and Harden and Noel for WMCJ. Plus Bad at Fantasy did only select 1 keeper. I added Kahwi Leonard to it. If any of these managers want other keepers or if you thing a keeper was slotted in the wrong round please inform me before the draft which is TOMORROW AT NOON! Don't forget!!

I wasn't sure how the keepers rules work. By "getting drafted 1 round ahead of last year" does that mean when I originally got Kawhi (2 seasons ago, where he barely got drafted) or where Kawhi got drafted last year? I didn't want to spend one of my top 2 picks on Kawhi if it went by last season's rank for him. But if it's where I originally I got him I am fine keeping him as keeper

Last season. He was a 10th rounder so this year he is a 9th rounder. But this'll be the last year he is eligible for you as a keeper

Look like the draft is set to 1pm EST instead?

Ah, damn. It is because I Had to enter it as CET and we switched tonight to winter time. I'm going to correct it

Boo logged on at 102 and it was over. Checked last night and said 1pm est

Crap, I missed it. If anyone wants to make fair trade offers for these players: Kyrie Irving, Al Jefferson, Tim Duncan, Goran Dragic, Tyson Chandler, I am interested

Well, it was always intended to be at noon and I never said anything else. Yahoo stupidly doesn't let you put in a draft date as noon ET, they always use the time zone you are actually living in. We were 6 hours ahead so I put in 6pm a few weeks ago. But due to the winter time which came from Saturday to Sunday it went to 1pm since we are only 5 hours ahead for a week, that is why the confusion arose. But since we said noon it was the right thing to stick with it.

But regarding the draft there didn't seem to be any big stupid autopick moves while it happened.

Wow I'm happy with my auto picks

Lopsided trade even if Covington were not injured, but his injury makes this trade even worse.

Yeah, voted against it as well.

Ditto

I was concerned that TD is due to become Garnett in Brooklyn

But you should be able to get a much better trade for TD. He is in ranked #46 at Yahoo and 68 at ESPN, so you should be able to get a No. 50-60 player back in return given he hasn't played a game yet and no reason to sell low other than your own concern. Covington's injury of course made the trade look worse, as he is down to be owned by just 76% of all teams, and in a 8-team league, we should all be able to get 90%+ owned players.

Well I just saw that Covington's injury went from 2 week to undetermined, so that makes him more unappealing, but I was very high on him otherwise as having lots of opportunity for defensive stats and 3s in fast paced Philly system. Nevertheless I will just stick with TD I guess
