    You're getting fired for the Chris Paul trade?

    No, I changed my mind on needing a backup big versus a wing.

    Its 100 pages almost, cannot keep track and things change fast as well. I would prefer a file. Not sure if you play fantasy bball. If yes you know what i mean and how useful it is

    The thread is 61 pages (if you go the default 20 per page) and is also 15 days old so it's not like you have to read all 1,000 posts in one day. It's also where information about the rules and the game are relayed so if you aren't bothering to read it you're probably missing out on stuff. I've worked extremely hard to keep each team's spreadsheets up to date so that everyone can view current rosters.

    How is a file that is constantly having to be updated any different or better than a thread in which people can update their trade block whenever they want and a link to each team's roster? With Memphis I have literally posted after every trade updating my trade block with what players I'm looking to move and what I'm trying to get back. Several other teams have done the same. I don't mind if people are choosing to not be super involved or make a lot of moves but all the information you are seeking is right there and readily available to keep up on if that's a concern.

    Like I mentioned, in real life there isn't a file and GM's don't typically announce publicly "Hey, I'm about to trade Harry Giles. Does anyone else want to offer more?" You have to be proactive and seek out guys you want if you want to make moves. It does take some effort if you want to be locked in. If not, it's fine since you can be whatever GM you want to be but recognize that's your choice not to put out that effort.

    I'm totally open to suggestions for next year on how to make it easier for everyone.

    @PtldPlatypus sent me his pick.

    With the 19th pick in the 2019 Rip City Two NBA Draft, the Washington Wizards select Romeo Langford, Indiana.

    Damn. Sorry Bones. That was his pick. Ouch. Not going to be happy when he wakes. Platy expect a trade offer, probably 20th pick, Trent Jr, and a future pick.

    To me is hard to keep track of what is going on in 61 pages and is also hard to click one by one all team pages while everything about players offered and assets needed could be easily displayed in one spreadsheet like fantasy bball i repeat(whoever plays knows).i personally cannot invest so much time so i i ju wait for free agency. All in all agree to disagree on this.

    Ps. Not disregarding the work you have put on this. That is something else and highly appreciated

    @BonesJones absolutely LOVES his Oregon Ducks so we may just auto draft Kenny Wooten for him here at #20.

    Pretty happy with this result. To me, Langford is lottery-caliber. To get him at 19 is a bit of a steal.

    I hope we can get to #23 by 12:45. I will be working for four hours with no smart phone and no wifi hotspot nearby. (yeh, yeh, I know ; if i had just stayed up 2 hours past my normal bedtime instead of one, we would be there already!)

    The top post's list of drafted players is blocked for me. Can anyone post a quick screenshot? Unfortunately don't have much time to read through all this thread today.
