Was planning to take Kris Humphries with this pick. But Kevin Martin isn't bad at this point in the draft.

ok. Steve is up!In the best of times, our days are numbered, anyway. And it would be a crime against Nature for any generation to take the world crisis so solemnly that it put off enjoying those things for which we were presumably designed in the first place, and which the gravest statesmen and the hoarsest politicians hope to make available to all men in the end: I mean the opportunity to do good work, to fall in love, to enjoy friends, to sit under trees, to read, to hit a ball and bounce the baby.

Originally posted by OaklandA's View PostWe have only gotten through 3 picks today. We have 28 players left to be selected, and about 4 days to do it, including a weekend. I think we need to be finished with the draft on Monday so everyone has time to set their starting lineup before the season starts on Tuesday.
So I propose we move to a 4 hour clock (from say 9 AM to 11 PM ET) starting on Friday, and if people get skipped, they can just post their pick whenever they can. Otherwise we're not going to get done in time.

Made my last pick. If anyone needs to contact me on league matters, please do so through the league. I won't be accessing RJ for any reason for several months.Last edited by Pogues; 10-24-2015, 11:38 AM.Considering his only baseball post in the past year was bringing up a 3 year old thread to taunt Hornsby and he's never contributed a dime to our hatpass, perhaps?

OK, the rosters are loaded on the Yahoo website: http://basketball.fantasysports.yahoo.com/nba/47081
Each team must go in and set their starting lineup before the first game. Since we are doing weekly lineups, rosters must be set before the first game on Mondays. There is no Monday game this week, but I'm not sure if roster changes will be allowed on Tuesday, so I would recommend setting your lineup before the end of Monday.
If your roster is blank, change the date to Sunday, Oct 25 and your team should be there. Rosters are empty for the 24th, but are available for every day after that.

I am not a fan of the weekly lineups rule. It seems to make the bench players less important - with daily transactions, you can sub in a reserve if a starting player is resting or has a minor injury. But with weekly lineups, I think subs will only be used if there is a serious injury to a starter. It also will make it more difficult to reach the 82 game limits.

I would agree with all that you're saying, but time became an issue for one of our members, he simply didn't have the time anymore to manage his team on a daily basis the way that he'd like to. So we kind of compromised on the weekly, which as you point out, has it's own issues. But we'll tweak it and maybe change back for next season.

Originally posted by hacko View PostOne compromise we did in my baseball league is we did weekly line-ups but you could make changes during the week if player went on DL or Off DL - Up or down on Minors- now Basketball doesn't have a DL so I would think something like - 2 to 4 moves a week after the Weekly line up. It was a good compromise between the weekly vs daily line ups.Bob- I'm not exactly sure it would ROCK as you say it Byron.. it may be cool, by typical text book descriptions. Your opinion of this is shallow and poorly constructed, but allow me to re-craft your initial thought into something tangable.
