Has anyone tried trading on their iphone this season? It works well last year and it'll be a big blow to me if unable to trade on the iphone this season after the interface changed.

I think Lebron and CDR...
Evans will require patience I think.

Not sure on the 2nd one but Im not sold on J Wright

I feel like I've already screwed this up. I'm afraid now I built Evans up in my head. Ran out of time to change my mind at the last second...

how did you run out of time? Only 1 game started so far, unless you wanted rondo or someone playing now.
I think evans will be great, but on a shaky team and with tons of to's

Well, I'm out of time for Lebron + CDR vs. Howard and Evans. The Lebron game already started. I'm also doing this on 30 minutes of sleep, so maybe I'm nervous over nothing. Just have to go with it sometimes...

11 points for Lebron in 4 minutes... not too shabby.

I don't have Rondo and thanks to TSN's new live scoring, I can tell you that lots of prominent managers don't: Blooki, GMoney, Rotoguru, Senator Urine (my auto-divisions are star-studded). Rondo's not a bad player to open with (I could have had him instead of Roy) but I doubt he'll match his playoff numbers with KG back and I like to keep the players I will definitely have to trade out of the first two weeks at a minimum. I always assume that some of the cheapies I start with will flame out early and I'll use my trades on them.

Got to admit, the live scoring is pretty sweet. Even the league standings reflect up to the minute points

CJ - only bad thing is you won't get the new trades on Nov. 3rd

You must have a full roster by 11pm ET on October 27th or you will NOT receive your first 4 trades on November 3rd.

Oh MY that is great! I see no price updates either as I am buying players now. When are the price updates supposed to take place each evening now...it was right at 11 PM eastern from what I remember.

I just requested a full refund......we will see where that goes. I am done and no way I can think of competing with 4 less trades. I have spent what time I had today trying to figure out the format with alot of time clicking in circles. Where the hell is the team page link...UHG! Oh well it has been fun over the years but I am hoping with my teams basically not even picked or in leagues I have requested a full refund and have decided with the new format....just not for me. Ya we will see where that goes.
Oh by the way why the rule change on getting no trades the first week for not having a roster set....was not my intent and plus the price updates are not to take effect till tomorrow night. What is the angle here?

Only 3 teams in my auto league tried the "I must have a player in every slot with a game on opening night" strategy. Little less than I expected.

Just checked my league and only 1 had all playing:

Only 180.5 pts to show for it. Not good
The next closest had 6 players: 174 pts.

LMAO! I thought about that. Knowing that many of us use both this board and TSN's, it could happen. BTW, if anyone cares, I go by hanstess on the TSN boards.
