    Maloe: I believe Jamario Moon is a UFA and is therefore ineligible to be drafted.

    Also, you're $3,559,526 over the cap.

    I recommend using Hoopshype for the salaries.

    Also, are they playing in the Thomas & Mack Center?

    Similarly, are the Sonics playing at the Key?

    Exchange Mike Dunleavy SF($3,750,000) of Milwaukee for Jon Brockman SF($1mill) of Milwaukee
    Exchange Darrelle Arthur PF($3,006216) of Memphis for Jeremy Tyler PF ($762,195)
    Exchange Jemario Moon SG of Charlotte for Josh Selby PG($762,195) of Memphis

    I believe this takes me under the cap...

    BTW- I won't have internet access for about a week. If anyone has any questions, they're probably answered earlier in the thread. If you want a city-any city on earth- you can have it so long as it's not already taken.

    Stay thirsty my friends.

    Bump.

    For any entries, you may draft any rookie except Beal, MKG, or Davis with your 4th pick.

    I got Royce White and at the time, White was projected to go that low because of anxiety issues. Juice, you want me to change that pick?

    I forgot about that... yeah, I'd prefer you (and the other applicable contestants) adjust your 2nd pick if need be.

    Of course, you could still come up with a trade to keep him.
