    Hey guys,

    The Cat said I could be the new Suns GM. My roster is pretty weak right now, but I should have a pretty high pick for anyone who is interested in moving up in the draft.

    My email address is Anticope85@yahoo.com,
    and my AIM is Chomp1285.

    Welcome to the league. Please take some time to look around all the threads such as standings, trade discussion, official trades, etc. so you can get a better feel for how things work around here. I know your team doesn't look good now, but with a high pick in both the rookie and common drafts, you should get two really good players to build around. Again, welcome and have fun. [​IMG]

    Just 1 more team left now to get a full league (woohoo!)... anyone want to get Clutch involved? Doc Rocket? [​IMG]

    i just emailed jeff i think, not exactly sure what his address is, but i guessed.

    The next time I have meat and mashed potatoes, I think I'll put a very large blob of potatoes on my plate with just a little piece of meat. And if someone asks me why i didn't get more meat, ill just say, "Oh, you mean this?" and pull out a big piece of meat from inside the blob of potatoes, where ive hidden it. Good magic trick, huh?

    Anticope,

    I want to move up in the draft. I currently own the 11th and the 27th pick in the first round and 2nd, 8th, 9th, and 11th pick in the second round of the common draft. I also have ben wallace, alvin williams, mateen cleaves, keon clark available. I am interested in all your picks.

    To get the ball rolling, I think I want to deal some EQUAL configuration of picks and players in which I get both of your common picks, # 3 in each round for my # 11 and 27 pick in the first round. Then I ship you a good player like Wallace or Williams or Clark for a lesser player on your squad.

    The one thing I want to avoid is shipping more picks or players than I get back. Let me know if your interesed in a trade like this one.

    Hey Anticope, I am VERY interested in youre rookie pick. I have the Clipper's pick, which is currently #8th overall to trade, plus additional players. I could send you #8 plus Bryon Russel (who is one of my best bench players) for your rookie. If you don't like that deal, look at my roster through the link in my sig, and let me know if there is someone else you want.

    I'm very interested in your pick as well. I currently have the Grizz rookie pick (around 12) and the Rockets rookie pick (around 20). I may could package Al Harrington with those two picks for your pick... any interest?

    My rookie pick will be tough to get since I will probably draft someone to build my team around. I'm actually more interested in trading my common pick.

    kbm: That deal interests me some, I really like Williams. Maybe we can work something out along that line.

    I like that deal, but I'd rather hold off a little while to see if I can get anything else.

    I'd advise you to hold off till the off-season and see if you can get some more bang for your buck...

    Anticope, are you looking to get better this season (meaning trade any of your picks for decent players), or are you looking to maybe trade down a bit and get more picks to fill out your roster?

    If you are trying to determine what the common draft will be like, Heath has updated the Draft Pool page with the likely candidates for the draft. If is not official, but I would say at least 80% if not more is accurate. So this will give you a good idea of who will be available at what pick, so you know the value of the common draft picks.

    As for the rookies, they will be created by Cat based soley on the scouting reports from pre-draft and workouts. As to how good those guys will be in the sim, your guess is as good as mine.

    Just wanted to let you know Anticope that you have Speedy Claxton sitting on your IR - he is out for the year... again [​IMG]

    That rookie PG from my team sure has it in for being injured.

    Btw Cat this made me think. With Claxton being buried on the IR for Suns perhaps you should check the other bottom feeders IRs for the new GMs to see if they have some hidden gems.
