NBA 2012-13 Back to the Future League (1 Viewer)

6.17 SG/SF Brandon Rush

Need someone who can stretch the floor for me. Plus he's a plus defender, can rebound, and block shots. I was hoping to get both Harrison Barnes and Rush, but I'll settle for Rush only. He'll get plenty of minutes as a starter or backing up Klay and Barnes.

PG Rondo

SG Turner

SF Rush

PF Z-bo

C The Brow

Bench

PF Taj Gibson

I'm liking this team a bit more. Lacking some long range shooting, but I think that's easier to fill them defense and rebounding which this team looks pretty good at.

 
6.18 Jeff Green SF/PF

Will probably come off the bench and be my big SF or speed PF.

I have a sneaky feeling he's going to have a big year, possibly similar stats to his last year in OKC.

 
6.22 Jamal Crawford G

Since my last pick (42 picks between?) there have been something like 12 point guards picked. I was expecting at worst Nelson or Collison to fall to me with the hopes of George Hill and I was going to start them at PG and move Ginobili to a 6th man role. Instead I think every starting PG in the NBA has been picked (off the top of my head there is one starting PG left but he'll be the backup by December when the real starter returns from injury). ####. Jamal Crawford got 100% at PG last year but the two years prior to that he did not even though he was playing nearly a quarter of his time at PG. I'm REALLY regretting my Tony Allen selection in the 5th round. After the 6th round I can field an entire lineup of nothing but shooting guards and small forwards, sweet.

PG: Ginobili

SG: Tony Allen

SF: Iggy

PF: Melo

C: Bogut

6th: Crawford

:goodposting: We had a run of people taking their backup PGs

Sorry guys. I gotta go to work. I'd send a list, but i only have two picks taken, and if one of them gets taken, I will need a while to think about other options. Waited around as long as I could...

Did you ever think about just sending the list and if the guy is NOT taken then you are golden
 
When is the clock going to shorten? There's no way we're finishing 20 rounds at this pace.
Well, this is the first time the clock has been in jeopardy. I think the pace has been fine otherwise. Edit: I don't think it would hurt to drop to 2 hours starting Monday though.Anyone know coyote's time zone? He's timed out if it's east, 45 mins left if central.

Whats the protocol if he misses the pick? Is it skipped entirely or just until he shows back up?It matters becuase if we time him out now and Tim's two picks process then Coyote is back on the clock for 4 more hours. So it isn't like we are speeding things up a ton to skip him.

Once you are skipped you are on autoskip™ until you catch up.Looks like coyote is from WI (explains a lot), so he's up in 35 mins. I PM'd him again, just in case.

In every internet draft I've ever been a part of, once you are skipped, you're on autoskip until you make up your picks. So Coyote would simply be skipped again.
 
What the hell. I will send TRE my two picks. If Coyote shows up and picks one, you guys gotta wait.
:finger:Send 3, bro.
That would be too easy. Nevermind that spending time deciding on which two guys to take no doubt included a third option that didn't make the cut. Oh no, Tim picked two guys, immediately forgot all the other people he considered, and will need sufficient time to REASSESS the remaining pool should one of the two guys on his list be selected.
 
PG- Parker/Rose

SG- Redick

SF- Leonard

PF- Bosh/Splitter

C- McGee/Splitter/Bosh

Pretty happy with this, given my initial starting position.

 
Jason RichardsonAnd go fck yourselves. I made that last pick from my phone - had no list with me.
You do understand the concept of a serpentine draft though, right?
Whatever dude. My picks happened to come up at a really bad time. I was pulled into meetings unexpectedly this morning. I'm really really sorry that I let my real life get in the way of all your fantasy lives. If you guys want to pay my mortgage then by all means, next time I'll tell my boss to f off because I need to be available in case my pick in an internet fantasy basketball draft comes up!Not trying to be a Richard here but there's a reason we have a clock and I'm not trying to run it out purposely.
